That looks nice, although I'll grant you I'm not a 'slammed on airbags' fan.

Keeping it, or tidying up and punting on, you reckon?

Thanks!

I’m not sure what I’ll do with it long term but short term is clean it up a bit and enjoy it.

But they bring whiskey which makes them an ideal lockdown companion.
How about not having a sig at all?

Yes, we have a big garden and plenty of beaches and woods for walks.

13weeks after placing my name on the waiting list, I just got my Concept2 rower order slot notification through. Couple weeks before it'll arrive but still, I'll have to do some exercise at this rate :o

I've been buying quite a few watches, nothing expensive.

Some nice booze.

An M140i + Birds B1 handling package and LSD

A cubic meter of logs.

Think that's about it...

My brother sold his last year as he couldn't find the time to use it with a 3 year old in the house. He bitterly regrets it. He made a profit on it though!

Been on a bit of a spending spree recently.

New TV, new bike, Sonos soundbar, 2 Nintendo switches. Just ran up £2.5k on new furniture for the flat we're moving to.

Apparently I'm done being economical for the pandemic :lol:

I tried to get one in Lockdown 1.0, but prices went mental, I saw £1500 being asked in places. A mate mentioned he'd put his name on the list for the next batches and here we are. I think I've got a delivery slot of Feb 24th. Added my name to the list Nov 3rd '20!

My brother bought his secondhand and sold it for more than new. Great piece of kit.

My Concept2 arrived today, four months later. Lovely bit of kit, but I need to make more space in the intended room :lol:
The old table and hi-fi unit were never supposed to stay anyway, so I think once I clear those out it'll be OK.

Theres some decent facebook groups to do challenges Bazza, worth a look.

I got one of these for xmas so when lockdown started in the new year I figured I'd do a 100 a day.

Having progressed from barely 4 we're upto 20. Its actually quite good and worth the money.
