    Not a bad idea for Slane too.

    We kept getting done down by Stackallen Bridge and on Slane Bridge itself.

    They fleeced a locked van whilst some of the lads were standing down on the bank no more than 10 metres from the van !

    It's nuts around there

    And the hill of Slane. Never once up there without seeing fresh sugar glass

    Stackallen bridge, a funny place indeed. Down the road further at the corner always populated with people my age up to no good!

    Then there's the ramparts, a different league altogether...

    You think you're fat?
    I've gained 2.5 stone in two years.

    I blame food.

    I've put on quite a bit of weight recently due to giving up smoking. I replaced smoking with eating crap but also I've been exercising so it will just take a bit of work to get back to where I was a few years ago.

    I gave up cigarrettes a few years ago, put on around 2 stone in a couple of months, went back on them and the weight just fell off again, im convinced smoking increases your metabolism or something like that, along with the extra eating

    Beneath the hoodies I've got a pregnancy belly.
    Seriously, it hangs low and it's hard, just like a baby.*

    I've just started jogging last week, here's to hoping that'll help me shed some weight!

    *Pun definitely intended.

    No, smoking just decreases your appetite. Exercise and eating proper food increase your metabolism ;)

    Hmmmm.. just did a motorcheck on this ZR160 that I'm looking at. According to that the NCT expired in July 2010 and the tax is out since April 2012. Kind of worrying that there is no benchmark for emissions anywhere in the recent past! Was thinking about going to see it on Saturday.

    Is it not suspiciously cheap?

    I don't think so. They don't tend to sell easily due to the reputation they have for HGF. I see similar prices on the mgzr forums (UK).

    The guy said he is an ex mechanic and replaced the hg himself when he got it anyway.

    I don't suppose anyone lives near Donaghmede, Dublin and knows anything else about the car or the seller? It is up on adverts too. Really being put off by the NCT thing now!

    You can burn up to 325 calories in an hour, if you wax your car for that much time.:)

    Used to be, played badminton, squash, basketball, rugby, swam competitively, and was very fit.

    Now I am a slob.

    I enjoy watching sports :)

    Nah tbh, my lifestyle and the amount of travel I do mean I can't commit to any regular team sports.
