Working the 16th, but up for a night ride. GT or Pitmedden would be good depending on date.

Wow the echo in here is impressive but the cobwebs and dust are getting a bit much. Wonder if the visitors book has been signed recently :?

Is that shiney head in the distance Robmac...........Nope just a dried up old skull by a pile of rusty junk.

Ah well I'm sure it'll pick up in here eventually..........Probably about Christmas when Epicyclo starts that seasonal job he has with his small helper Jamie :xmas-wink:
