Do you ever read what you wrote and thought mmm...what happened? I still think I’m 19

Re: Camera Phones (Sorry)
iPhone SE here. Really like it because it’s small and iPhones photo editing to crop, change exposure, contrast etc is really quick to use. I no longer carry a digi cam because the phones so good. iPhone no longer provide updates for the SE, but at the end of the day I don’t expect jpgs to become an ...

A collective noun

It got me thinking (prompted by some recent posts) we get great enjoyment being individuals and part of collective, where shared experience, ...

Nice one summittoppler. All I managed was a walk across b&qs carpark in Rhyl today. Not out of my comfort zone... but still exciting 💨 For any of you storm chasers out there. From experience... it’s not type two fun.. it’s more a case of being thankful for surviving a stupid idea.. just saying.....

Guessing you’ve checked out Ride the Clwyds website? Denbighshire AONB unit added some permissive bridleways specifically to link up existing bike routes.

When you passing through Stu?
The OD path ran through our garden till we had legally diverted about 5 years ago. If you need a place to pitch and have a shower, we’re about 6 miles south of Prestatyn.

Re: FS: Tarp / shelter anyone? SOLD
Hi Stu
Interested to know what make of tarp it is you just sold?
Is it a flat tarp with a beak, or does it have a cat ridge line?
It’s the type of setup I was trying to achieve, but found the R1G 3.5 too small and the 7 the wrong shape.
