This is true, but they also turn into cold things lol

Mrs W likes toasty warm all night no interruptions

Electric blankets

Safe in the Bongo or not

Planning a trip to the Valleys at Easter and Mrs W and kinder Loretta are worried about getting cold.

I don't, cold is natural and I am weird (according to Mrs W)

HAs anyone used them in a bongo or got any input?

Cheers

Re: Fylde/St Annes/ Lytham etc meetup

FYI Cherry ...

Re: Fylde/St Annes/ Lytham etc meetup

Very nice spot for a day meet if weather is nice. :-) Was a bit grim yesterday so we stayed indoors ;-) There had been meetups in St Annes, usually in Feb but doesn't seem to have been one this year. One of my colleague...

Re: Exhaust..

New exhaust fitted, looks very nice and bespoke .. cost £450! (eep), but better than the £600 I was quoted by ADS in Preston.
