Hi

My tinitus from the weekend is wearing off, now, decided to cleam my ears, and stared with a cotton bud, could have done with a ruddy chimney brush, with the soot that was coming out!! Laughing

Cheers

Dave

well, it lasted about 90 minutes!

the van i was in is low geared (4.625 ratio) 3 hours each way to do a 300 mile round trip was a lot of noise

my 3 speed is much nicer for long trips, i regularly went to devon/cornwall in it and 5 and a bit hours was no trouble, i once drove it for 12 hours without stop but that was tiring

400e's are so comfy with your legs dangling down, stops DVT
