Re: Words don't fail me but it's a moderated forum

If you were out in the fields somewhere on your own farm where the only people about are likely to be .... err .... you, then obviously if you had killed a badger you would pick the body up chuck it in the back of your Landy and drive to the nearest road to dump it. Why would you just leave it where...

Re: Garage

I have the same problem and took a punt on a solar power LED light. I opted for one from nick's eco store found via google, there is a 12 (I think) led light 6' of cable and a small PV panel on a bracket.

Re: Remember Motorcycle Voyager Magazine?

I remember MV and missed it when it went. I think any new venture like this needs to embrace multi media (I am cringing as I write that but I still think it's true)This web site and forum add to the Mag and I find myself wondering if it will be available as a kindle download. Or is that a daft idea?

best of luck

I have to say I kind of agree, a 'go a little bit slow on a very big road on Sunday' protest is a bit lame, will just piss off a few caravaners and will be forgotten about the next day. I am very annoyed by the proposals of course, as far as I am concerned the government can require that I have a r...
