How are you?
Well well, blast from the past as the say. I'm doing just fine in my central France home. Are you still in soggy Bedfordshire or did you make the move to the US?

I met up with a former ridersiter late last year, he lives around 3 hours away I guess. Think he went by the handle of bm or something like - clever bloke on all things technical.

Hello sir
Good to see you are alive and kicking.
Im still in Bedfordshire. I never moved to the US - got a house there for a while - but I do work for a US company. So, nearly made it.

What you are now doing in France and far from the nonsense of that London, where I still am?
All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy.

Nothing really. I kid you not. Waiting for spring then it'll be gardening, riding my (push) bike etc. I'm not sure I could handle the UK (let alone London) now. Seems a long time ago.

Where in France are you? We have a bolt-hole/project in the Languedoc that we visit as often as we can.

That makes sense, We should all aim to be that way.
London sucks but it pays well.

I'd guess the wrong side of 50 :smt005
I hate it when people ask if you have a bathroom, I want to say "No we pee in the garden"
