    Hello stranger! Thought you'd abandoned us poor mortals today :p

    Well in some ways I did, we were out cycling this morning and arrived home soaked through (as we have done the last 3 rides!) as you can imagine I anxiously fired up the PC and clicked on outlook waiting for all those lovely FSCS emails and guess what?




    Sod all, just 9 from my ebay watch list and 2 spams!:mad:

    I suspect the DM meant to say "10,000 sent each day over the last 6 days" - he says with optimism ... (no I haven't had mine yet - either -

    It has to be, the quoted figure would be unthinkable.:eek:

    Did you expect anything else considering the luck of us on this thread. ;)

    Infact I'm very surprised you didn't get a few punctures and then realise you'd left the repair kit on a shelf in the garage. :D

    That would explain the recent news bulletin:

    [ A pack of angry cyclists, heavily disguised, some wearing puffin costumes, were this morning disturbed trying to force entry to the FSCS offices in London. Attempts to apprehend them, including the use of water canons, proved negative. ] :D

    What's the odds on Rachel leaving next week? I'd have a punt at that if I were you ;)

    Almost 2 to 1. Fancy going ten grand each? :eek:

    Chameleon your photo fit is much much too accurate.
    Remember to dump and burn out your Raleigh Shopper. :D

    Time is dragging by so slowly. The last thing you need is 9 watches. ;)
