I remember your thread on VD. Proper dusty the day I read it.
I am glad it all worked out so well for you, a good marriage is a good thing, 2 in a row is bloody outstanding. Keep up the good work.

It's funny that I mention "the motorbike forum" when I talk to people but it's the same bunch of people that have been online together for 30 years.

Re: A right now thread
4 days off!!
In the garden with gynantonyx’s and the girlfriend (fiancée) chilling. She’s had a stressful week with financial stuff and her daughter going back to Uni to do a masters, I’m trying to think of ways to ease her stress!!
Enjoy!,

Don't think you've mentioned this development before. Anyway, congratulations.
