Yes mate they did! I orginally went to the shop to get the yellow but they had none left and would be weeks before they could get one. So I opted for the orange. Best £440 I ever spent

Used to do a lot of walking and climbing before our daughter was born. Now it's cycling and vintage Volkswagens, the really old stuff. Got a 1955 Beetle sitting in my garage just waiting to have the bodywork finished. Then it's the fun of putting it all back togeher. Only thing stopping me is money. May have to sell one of the bikes...

Spouses do take up an inordinate amount of time, don't they?

 

[Dayvo]

Played cricket most of my life (at junior and senior levels) and rugby for 25 years.

I play golf, but don't really enjoy it; I'd prefer cycling for four/five hours instead of cursing ruining a good walk!

I still go skiing (alpine and XC) regularly-ish, but travelling is my greatest passion.

On a more tranquil (boring?) note, I enjoy cooking and reading!

They should, if you're doing it properly.

Used to play golf but I never seem to get the time thesedays. I've just taken up archery. The target's bigger for a kick-off.
