Fair enough.
I apologise.
You're not a strange fucker because you want to sell a newly acquired moped then.

My whole intention was to try the brown one and flog the one I liked the least. The brown one drives quite a bit different. But is just as much fun.
I had it flat out on a 60mph single carriageway on the way back. My head was down behind the handle bars and I got it up to 55mph. We got home and the boy said it was only 50mph and I was holding him up. I must be a couple of stone heavier than him and the speedo on the red one is spot on.

Mission was aborted due to my incompetence. We did have a laugh though. 29 degrees or some shit up here today.

She says I never pay attention to anything she says. Or something like that.

I scored very low on the autie test. I’m cheerful, happy, confident, like meeting new people, chatty and largely sociable. What the fuck am I doing on this forum?

See, there’s your mistake. You’ve got a portrait yard instead of a landscape one. Loads more room in a landscape yard.

Paul, did I see earlier in the thread you were thinking of selling one of the battery charger/keep topped up thingies! If so are they 12v and how much please. Thinking of getting one to keep one of the cars topped up as they aren't getting used much these days
