Just a pair of Gloves this time, but they look just the ticket...

Won on the Apex66 instant win comp... https://www.apex66.co.uk/competition/ex ... tant-wins/

For anyone not yet registered on Apex66... If you use my link to register, you will get £10 credit (as will I) to use on the site! 👍🏻

https://www.apex66.co.uk/?raf=ref4713375

So far I've spent about £200 on tickets over the last year or so on the site, had another £50 credit in referrals to use, won a bike that I sold for £5,250, won a trackday, won 100x entries into other comps (not yet drawn and entries worth approx £250 all in) and just won some gloves worth £125 too... I thought my premium bonds were doing OK @ 25% return for 2023 (20% of it was in one month!), but thinking of taking that money out and blowing it all on Apex66 tickets right now! :lol:
Yes!! Get in !! :thumbup:

I thought the feeling from Youtube was that it's the same car as the pink one, but the person who won the pink one didn't want it and took cash instead ?

I doubt they get towed around much, just used to dodge planning regs. However, in the covenants on this house, multi-axle caravans (and fairground equipment) are not permitted on the land. I wonder why? :lol:

I saw a few similar a couple of years ago, but with pitched roofs etc., getting dragged around by a couple of vans by what looked very much like do-as-they-likeys - did really look lil bungalows on a caravan chassis.....

The "tiny house" revolution hasn't really taken off here, like it has in the states. There's some pretty amazing ones out there. I got them through regularly on my FB page last year for some reason?

The arse has fallen out of the market, there are loads for sale now and some people on the groups are getting mighty annoyed that the bike they ‘invested’ in appears to be selling for less than they paid…if they can sell at all.

There are still adverts saying “the prices of these bikes are only going one way…” - yeah down :D
Interesting! I’ve been toying with the idea of getting a smoker for a few years now. I kept convincing myself that it’s end up an expensive garden ornament, but recently found out they are ULEZ exempt so I could use one for a commuting every so often! :D
