Re: Something to look forward too

12 weeks, wow thats a long time, well Friday will be here soon enough. Good news so far for me, I have bids and its over half way to its reserve and one person wanting to view and deal and its only been on there for little over 12 hours, so it may sell sooner rather than later, which means I can get...

Re: Some advice please?

I will have to take a look (well mention to my daughter about the £1.00 bargin bucket). The one you got from Ebay, was it about £13.00? and what is it like apart from it tieing under the seat, do they really make it that much better an experiance for rider and pillion? or is that just a lot of hype,...

LoL
This is true, well we have an express here in the town, nearest main one is like 15 miles away, yet they are talking of building one in the town in the next 2 years, so resistance is in fact futile.

Re: Some advice please?

Oh I wonder what you bought in Tesco? as for £1.00 seems like a deal to me, I have seen this none slip rubber type stuff you can get for the car dash aimed at mobile phones and things, yet think after one trip it would be no good, yet guess if it was swen into a base material to toughen it up it may...

I got 2 replies in total, 1 to tell me they had sold it, the other is...
