Ummm, dappers? You do know that we're already a week into Feb don't you?
When did you come out of hibernation?

Badgers shouldn't come out of hibernation till march, he must be up early because of that nice weather we were having. It's getting COLD again though, he might need to get back to the sett.

A week out is good for I. Hibernation....now that seem loike a very appealing idea at the mo.

I had some funky Stats software set up back then, so it was all very easy to update....and explain to you scientists! rolleyes.gif I would hazard a guess the age demographic ain't changed too much. mid to late farties would be my guess.

Stebel Magnum - crikey. Nonfango hard luggage. Nexxus. SW-Motech center stand. Had a Powerbronze tall screen - too noisy - went back to standard.

Stealth Diamond Black 900 with lurvely black frame. GS brush guards. HotGrips on a relay - cos I keep forgetting. SW-Motech center stand and engine bars. LED rear light. Vario set to min. 17 incher. PR2s.

All now a fond (very fond) memory. Maybe again some day.
