Welcome aboard Loops - Looks like Stanley is a long-term proposition then - he'll make a decent winter hack as long as you can keep the salt from eating him alive
Are you going to trade up to something bigger and better come the spring - or earlier, now's the best time to be buying as the prices are depressed by the season? Any idea what floats your boat yet?
Whereabouts are you from? I'd guess somewhere around the Bath-Corsham area as you mention using the A4 regularly. If near Corsham on your travels, why not drop into the Fart & Clown in Gastard on a Wednesday evening to sample the Smellyburgers (which are far better than the name might suggest ;D) and meet some WBs as it's our official weekly meeting point now [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
