Well since graduating in June ive hardly been on here, main reason being that me and my ladyfriend are moving from Bristol down to Cornwall in two weeks, so ive had a whole lot of stuff to sort out, as well as working my backside off to fund the move (and also a new daily driver, a really cool mk2 passat estate!).

We have a house sorted in Penponds just outside Camborne, my gf has a job so I just need to find myself a job (anything for now), but mainly I need
a) a lockup/garage/shed of some form to keep my mini, bikes and other boys toys, and
b) to meet some people!!

can anyone help with either?!

:w00t:

When is the jamboree Bungle? I couldnt see any dates on the link.

I'd be well up for that, can use visiting Bun as a lame excuse to go to a dub show :P
