Did you take a wrong turn on the way to East Surrey?

Slightly. Job opportunity in Devon, for half the wages, but potentially much cheaper cost of living and better quality of life. Quite excited.

But it'll be a heck of a ride for one (or both) of us to go out on the bikes again.

Have you focused-in yet? I saw the request for houses in the prawn thread, and some of them were crackers.

There's going to be a lot of viewing on Sat and Sun. Considerations include getting as close to mortgage free, in a house we could rent in the future when we can afford something more "prawny". To be fair, this move might be pretty recent / new build, but there is one barn conversion to look at. Somewhere in a triangle encompassing Exmouth, Honiton and Tiverton looks likely.

Good luck. Do post what you buy if you find something. And south-west drinks sounds good to me.

New '2' Series coupe, for anyone remotely interested:





From here:

They've fixed the gopping front end of the F20 and fixed the stumpy rear of the E87 coupe. Looks surprisingly good. Shame that the 1-series has such an awful offset on the alloys that they don't get any dish, still.

Undeclared write-off? I see it has the standard melting steering wheel.

It is not impressive close up.

Edit - That particular one I meant.

What? Really?

Looks quite nice. I will very much look forward to seeing extraordinarily garish colour combos on used variants over the next decade, but it's clearly possible to make it very lovely inside.

Pictures, or we won't believe you're not simply sat in Olly's living room with Sky on the TV.
