Semi automatic, with paddle shift, you have to shift up and you can shift down, but it auto shifts down., braking is one pedal on right side that operates all brakes in a 20/80 split.
Ah, I’m not allowed to use right leg/foot for driving/riding 🤷🏻♂️

3 wheels for me too... That's not me by the way but I have the same bike.
It looks like it might get a bit to getting used to?

My Grandparents lived in what was then in the 1950’s quite a large village. The population hovered around the 1000 mark.
For sake of argument we will assume that each couple had two children.
Again, for sake of argument we will assume that the 500 adults were split 50/50 male/female.
That means approximately 250 men lived in the village. Very rough figures, I know. It is (just) possible that not all the men were drinkers.
If you count the working men’s club there were 10 pubs in the village.
That is one pub to every 25 men (women did not go in pubs very often then)In our what was classed as the largest mining village in the world, in it’s heyday we had 25 working men’s clubs (CIU), various pubs and clubs as well.
When the pits closed so did most of the CIU places, I think there is 2 now, we have 5 pubs, some other clubs but not many 😔

5s and 3s round this area , but when I was working down Birmingham way they had dominos that went up to double 9!
you needed hands like coal shovels just to hold em LOL
My grand parents had a set of dominoes that went up to double 9
Made from ivory and ebony.
God knows where they ended up?
I remember a story that grandad came in drunk one night to an argument over the dominoes and threw the lot in the coal fire, they all got rescued but a few were singed 🤦🏻♂️

It was a freedom that kids of today know nothing about.

I’m the grand old age of 63 now 👴🏻
I remember the coal man, the pop man, the van that came round that sold everything, the milkman with horse and cart.
When I was around 8/9 we used to go the tip because Rowntree Macintosh used to tip sweets there that weren’t up to scratch but still in Wrappers.
In the holidays living in Norfolk we would be up and out the house before 8 and be back around 6 for tea.
Different world 😔

Pension paid too early,
How is it paid too early?
They are forever changing state pension date?
When is yours due?
Many moons ago when I started working I was supposed to get my srp when I was 65.
I know have to wait an extra year and 3 months.
What age would you suggest it should be paid at 🤷🏻♂️

If the Citori fits you and you shoot well and comfortably with it then go for it.
A Beretta doesn’t fit the same as Browning/Winchester so may not suit you.
Miroku is also worth looking at

If the seller requires a valid SGC then it’s up to him.
If you don’t wish to provide one then don’t buy.
Its really that simple 🤷🏻♂️

My sister had goldfish in a garden pond and she found a large grass snake wastak8ng the fish. She used a (sort of cone) net and caught the blighter. She took it down a couple of large fields away (1/4) mile away to a small river and let it loose on the bank. Two days later a snake was back in her pond. She thought that it looked like the one that she had taken away, so she captured the blighter again and this time she painted an X on its head with nail varnish. The miscreant was taken off to the river again. Two days later the identified beast was back...? this time the painted snake was taken several miles away. I don't think that it found its way back this time.
Give it time 😳

Like a lot of platforms you just have to be careful when buying as somethings are too good to be true, like a 2019 ford ranger for £5000 I’ve just been looking at 🙂.
A colleague of mine who I wouldn’t have thought of to fall for a scam once paid £50 up front to have a pool table delivered, balance due on delivery, unfortunately that delivery never happened.
I think the car prices are just a Mickey take unfortunately

Go on, be a devil and give us a price 🙏

This is mainly due to the Broads being non tidal
We hired a cruiser on the broads many years ago and we moored up for the night, guy that took the fees said to leave about 10ft of slack because as the tide goes out it will drop.
We did but we’re still about a foot too short and boat was lilting to one side in the morning.
