Outdoor show and Outdoor blogger’s meet up

Great day yesterday down at the NEC in Birmingham for the outdoor show.bloggers

Although we were disappointed with the lack of outdoor stuff  on sale.

Geoff was hoping to see some light weight cooking stuff and I was after a new hydration system but we found none of these.

For us,what made the day was getting to meet up with some of the Outdoor Blogger’s and finally put names to faces.

Gayle and Mick will soon be off on their LEJOG walk , it was great hearing all about their plans a2337258083_99920f7c1end I will be following them on their blog

They wanted to know all about twitter so Geoff explained it well and we may have some new followers soon.

Great to also meet Daren,Duncan,Johnhee, Alan Sloman, Phil Doodlecat,Andy Howel , George and anyone else I may have forgotten.

Four of them even got to sample one of my muffins too.

 

Maybe next time we can all meet up for a walk 🙂

A taster……

Today I have had a Peugeot 207 to test drive for the day.

I wanted the 1.4 diesel urban, which is the basic model.

I got the 1.6 sport……

As I only drive a 1.2 Clio, lets just say the 1.6 went like a rocket, the acceleration was fantastic.

The car is way out my price range but its been nice to experience driving such a car.

I have decided that un till my son gets himself sorted with a job and passes his driving test, I will not be having a new car 🙁

Would be such a waste to have my Clio just sitting there un used.

Anyway I think I would still like to test drive the Volkswagen Polo.
