    Have had to order a new chain & sprockets today. That's the best part of £100 I could have done without, in a month fraught with debit card fraud, and bank errors so far costing me to the tune of £200

    I shall be having a few beers on the trip methinks!

    Why do these things always happen at the most inopportune of times?

    Seeing as you've just regaled us once again : with woeful tales of your abject poverty, can you afford a few beers in Cornwall? Will the IMF foreclose on your credit, or more to the point, will you get it in the neck for blowing more precious wedding funds? :-? :-? :-?

    Maybe your forum name should be changed to Greek Fly as you seem to be about as adept at managing money as their government... Before you puff out your feathers with a predictably indignant response about your domestic situation just remember that if you don't like someone taking the piss, don't give them the ammunition by bleating ad nauseam about what rotten luck you're having, it's ****ing boring to be honest...

    Sorry to hear you've been having problems, happens to us all - banks and MPs are in the same funny hand-shake club - out to rip us off! (except perhaps that MP at Glasto!) Chin up, enjoy Cornwall and if beer come in pints in a pub or like us, out of a bottle from Aldi, who cares?!! Enjoy!! ;D

    As long as you have a bike, there'll always be someone to buy you a beer and lend you a floor to kip on.

    Many of us are facing the same type of financial difficulties but for different reasons etc ...... it's just a case of prioritising hehe

    And to be honest, Cornwall has to come pretty near to the top of the list hehehe, as does the bike lol

    That will be the same sort of boring as you having a holier than thou pop at someone nearly every time they post something on here?

    I'm fed up with people on here who seem to spend their lives picking up on what others post, from comments about their financial status to their spelling mistakes!

    Grow up people - we are all adults aren't we? Obviously we are all different characters and have different ideas & priorities etc. but there is no need for this petty playground stuff! >
