Cheers Mick (y) I have to admit I did pretty much want the Laguna Seca suit as ive always admired the suit but I did go to the new j&s accessories store just opened in Manchester last month to try other suits on. I tried astars, motogp, berik, BKS and rst to name but a few and not one set fitted properly. I think the amount of stretch panels of different types all strategically placed create a great fit on the mid to high end Dainese suits. I guess that and quality of materials is what your paying for.

I'd love to get back into some martial arts, just hard with my working away.

Aikido would be my pick if I did get back to it, I did Nam Wah Pai (Kung fu) and Zen Do Kai (mixed/freestyle) in my teens. I wish I was halve as flexible as I was then.

I do miss Aikido. It's technical but I really enjoyed it.

A hanging chain flyscreen for the back door, been meaning to get one for ages, I hate all flying nasties (bees being the only exception) so fingers crossed the kitchen is firmly a bug free zone from now on, I've bought another for the French windows that I'll fit at the weekend.

God I'm eaisly pleased as i m currently sat on the train to the big smoke chilling out chuffed to bits with my little treats. Happy days (rock)

A large double Michelin foot pump. Not very exciting but I needed a new one so decided to get something that'll last.
