Blade is light but he's got stamina. It was like trying to land a shark during a boat fishing trip.

Re: Isle of Man - 8th to 10th September
Jess and I use AirBnB in Aussie for our trips away a lot Rossgo, plenty of options and many of the listings are self contained/attached with private access/non shared bathrooms so you're not bumping into the owners unless you want too. We've actually just booked another one for a weekend away to a Wine and Food Festival, its a few km out of town and the host has offered to drive us in so we only have to get a taxi back!Rossgo wrote:Just taken a look, seems good prices as well to be honest.

Hopefully the weather is good. I don't fancy wet mountain roads on the corsas.
