    Ah right. Scooters weren’t on my radar then (only bikes) so I would never have gone there

    That rings a bell. But when I last lived in Saltaire that was back in the early 1980’s. It was a big terrace house on three floors and the price was 16000 pounds.

    Now if you’re from Leeds and you’re an old gimmer like me you’ll remember Watson & Cairns. I bought my very first motorbike from them in 1975. It was a Honda SL125. ;)

    I wasn't into scooters or bikes back then but always remember (back to the late 1960's and early 70's) going past Lens on the way to my uncles in Baildon. :cool:

    I've not had a chance to get bored, my Mrs has a talent for finding stuff to do around the house and in the garden. And the weather's been really nice too.
    Fair play to her though she really mucks in and has just brought me a cider.
    I think I'm going to enjoy furlough.

    It only becomes a problem when it’s mixed with a bat or a pangolin ant eater. If it isn’t you’re good to go (probably to the nearest toilet)
