Pleased to say that the “Further Adventures in rough stuff” landed yesterday.
Only really opened the cover but it looks fantastic! I was surprised to see the postcards and badge.
Looking forward to getting the kick to get out there again soon once I’ve read it.
Cheers Rob

Any Big Dummies around?
A Facebook and kayaking friend has been knocked off his big dummy and while he has survived, the bike is trashed.
Any around that anyone knows about?

Have not found a saddle over 50 years that I'm totally happy with. Coincidentally I've just swapped my own s...

Re: WRT Grid Ref's.....
No idea but with your pack rafting, you’ll be able to get to the traditional grid ref out to sea or in the middle of a lake!
Personally, I’ve got a few places I’d like to visit so I might disregard them totally!

If Hermes counts then New running trainers.
The postman did deliver though, UV filter for a Rollei 35 for a bit of retro photography and also tide time tables for N. Devon, Cornwall and Plymouth.
Must buy some bike things or at least a tee shirt!
