Methinks you must've partook in Keith's Book Sale, featured on the For sale section recently.

Likewise, I treated myself, with a 1931 CTC Guide to Wales and Midlands, Golden Days Awheel by Albert Winstanley and finally Eddie Merckx, as a bonus buy (a book, not the real man ).

Hope you have many happy hours reading yours, Brucey.

Probably a pair of socks.

Brake blocks

Bradley Wiggins fitness levels .

Brad Pitt's good looks .

I think I am getting some Ortlieb panniers. Hoping to start cycle touring next year (just "locally" to start, within 100 miles of home or so).
Camping holiday in France planned, so the panniers will be carrying wine + cheese back to the campsite from the supermarket. Can't wait

Had all my presents for this year already... a drill and a third of a boiler.

I used to dream of a drill and a third of a boiler....

I'm warm and can stick things in walls. Can't complain.
