"acquired" normally tends to mean to have gotten something for free, not necessarily by legal means lol

All legal, Ive been given at least 3 over the years, picked one up off the side of the road on bin day, and found one in the woods behind our cottage which was triumphantly carried home and cleaned up!

The Fraccaro Penta and the 1m Orbital were bought new.

You would be right there Wasp, he would have sold his granny if he thought it would have been to his advantage, but don't ever say a word against him if you happen to be in Dingle, he is somewhat of a saint over that way.

The snow put pay to the game tonight and I was so looking forward to it too, should have been a great game.

I reckon that your avitar is of you and me on Sunday evening, after that display, or lack of one. Thought Jonny Evens had a very good game for his first in a long while, he will be very welcome to have back, Wes Brown takes too many chances round the box.

Regards Wez

I took Christmas week off to drive down to relatives Lancashire way, from the Highlands of Scotland. Just after the first snows had already arrived.

Was a hair-raising journey, and posted some pics here of the journey down, and journey back:
