Tax feckers are good like that, if it's in their favour, they want it immediately, but if it's in your favour it takes forever to bloody get it! Hope it doesn't cause you too much grief Perkles, but regardless I'd milk the hell out of the free Balti offer :D

That shite, Perkles however the tax laws are drawn up in such a way that its always your responsibility to check your tax code is correct even if HMRC get it wrong.

You may be able to persuade them to change your tax code to repay the tax this year over the year but its always at their discretion.

My employer did that to me about 12 years ago and I got a big bill too. It's a bustard, that's for sure, Sorry to hear it :(

I got a 40lt Oxford tail bag for a couple of trips this year. One of them being MCN Live with me dad and the other being 675 fest this year. Got delivered yesterday, thought it be slightly bigger but think it will hold up very well compared to having a bag strapped to your back!

Got a pretty good deal .on it. These sell for 104 quid everywhere I looked but found this one for 50quid. Bargain I thought but the reason why was because I could get any colour as long as it was blue...doesn't look great but good make and good quality so pretty happy. Well I'm hoping it will be good quality!

Oxford luggage is very good for the money. I've still got Oxford stuff from over ten years ago and countless weeks away that's still brilliant.

Very useful. I used to use the tank bag all the time was great, used it for going to footy with. It was able to fit my boots and bits and pieces I needed too. Was picked up from Lidl a few years ago and still going strong now!

Got home to my offshore shopping pile waiting for me

SJCAM 4000

Sd cards for above

Handlebar mount waterproof case for Phone (for GPS use)

Replacement cords and stereo drivers for my earmold headset. Use them on the bike but with a inline volume control so I can still hear the bike and surrounding traffic. And in the twistes it gets turned right off. But I can't do 11 days of full riding with no tunes!
