    time to retire from UKAPS

    Although I have been absent from the forum for quite a while, I still am grateful that there will be more of your threads/posts to read and be inspired by when I do drop in - the forum is a lesser place when knowledge/experience leaves. I know very little about planted tanks, but I know what I...

    Me and my new toy Aprillia.

    lol I most certainly will - most of my riding is in traffic so careful is the only way I can do it atm. In fast the best bit I've had so far was picking it up from outside Shrewsbury - lots of nice country roads around there. I'm not your average biker chick btw - you know the signs you've...

    Me and my new toy Aprillia.

    Just started mate - me and the OH did our CBT's last week, he's got a baby Varadero and I picked up my YBR125 last Sunday and been commuting every day this week. We'll do direct access next year and get bigger ones. I seriously like Graeme's but perhaps not for my first big bike (and not...

    Aww she's beautiful! I am incredibly jealous!

    Me and my new toy Aprillia.

    Do it Steve - you'll not regret it. I've had my bike since Sunday and now commute to work and I love every single second of it. I'm already looking forward to getting a bigger bike, but as the oh has taken up biking too, it's a bit dear for both of us to do our tests and buy bigger ones...

    Me and my new toy Aprillia.

    How's the bike going Graeme? I bought myself a Yamaha YBR125 as starter bike to learn on but I really like the look of yours!

    Universites, Leed's met vs. Lincoln.

    Don't know anything about either Uni, but hubby's family are mainly Leeds based and I really like the city. I like it so much that if there weren't so many of my crazy in-laws living there, we'd probably be living there instead of in Birmingham. The town has much more character (IMO) than...

    Tron 2 (aka Tr2n)

    OMG I love Tron! I didn't realise they were making another one, but hoped they would. Spose we've got to wait forever for it to be released properly though :(

    George away for 4 months

    All the best George. We'll most definitely be thinking of you while you're away.

    What do you do?

    Senior Pensions Administrator with in-house administrators of the UK pension arrangements for a large company. Not something I ever dreamed about when I started my Modern History degree (I wanted to be a teacher) but surprisingly I do use an awful lot of the skills picked up at Uni. I spent...

    Cheltenham - What's it like?

    I'm sure you'll like Cheltenham - I've been a couple of times since my aunty lives there p/t and I like it. Has some nice countryside around it too. I like Bishops Cleeve, but that's mainly because my employer used to have a couple of big sites there. Good luck with the move!

    Nature Aquarium World Takashi Amano

    I had bid on one of these books on fleabay for about a £1 but some bugger nipped in at the last moment and stole it from me :evil: I guess I'll have to fork out the full price at some point, unless somebody takes the hint and sees that they are on my Amazon wishlist On an earlier...

    Ah you'd have to lengthen my odds I think Martin since I tend to avoid posting in any thread that requires a knowledgable answer! I could probably spam for Britain if I put my mind to it, but try and leave that to other sites :lol:

    Total journey distance for everyone who travelled to TGM!

    Google reckons it's 76.5 miles from my house, so add in a 5 mile-ish detour to pick up DevUK, I'm talking 158 miles altogether.

    bit of a back seat

    Good luck with the teaching Matt - it's rare enough that you hear of people doing the jobs they truly love...I remember well my dad telling me a few years ago that the job he'd done for nearly 40 years, he'd hated with a passion. How soul destroying that must have been for him. All the very...

    Six Nations

    Yes, Ireland definitely know how to make things look difficult ;) Was very impressed with Stringer's replacement though - looks promising! I'll be rooting for England this afternoon - it will be interesting to see how Gatland's team selection pans out..

    Six Nations

    Come on folks, who's watching it and who are you putting your money on? I'm watching Ireland of course, but hadn't really pegged them to win it (not that I wouldn't mind of course!)

    Probably the best toy in the world...

    I bought the hubby one for Christmas after seeing this thread and he loves it, but has the same trouble with direction :wink: I never thought men were supposed to have trouble with direction, but obviously that isn't the case. They are a lot of fun, especially when one dog tries his best to...

    iPhone - the greatest piece of kit in the world

    :shock: Yikes Dan wasn't trying to wind you up! Comment was a flippant if an ill-thought out one. I know someone who got an iPhone and they're getting rid as they hate it already! So although I've not used it myself, I've heard about it 2nd hand. I think it keeps freezing on them and the...

    Live Lounge

    Nice song, but would have been better if a) she'd sung it with a Northern Irish accent and b) she kept it down a bit whilst I sung along :lol: Thanks for sharing - she has a great voice!

    Rugby World Cup Final

    I thought it was a try, but unfortunately even if it was we'd still have been 3 points behind the Sprinkboks. You've got to applaud them for getting to the final to defend their title in the first place.

    Rugby World Cup Final

    I watched the England v SA game in the south of France where the English kept quiet and the biggest English supporter was a Welshman! I think the Irish friendlies before the start of the World Cup sounded the alarm bells early. However this world Cup has been remarkable in the performances...

    Rugby World Cup Final

    In Ireland's absence I'll be joining the oh and supporting England. Let's hope they can do the job. (Nobody remind me of this come the Six Nations :roll: )

    Nice one. I think you might have just sourced me a pressie for the OH.

    Happy Birthday Mr Farmer
