Lounging out of the back of the camper. Some Nick Cave playing and a large glass of red. Perfect

Ha! Mrs C says that looks like me on my 'really childish' Aimos 60V EV. I say I have better hips. She says i'm to grow up and she's booked me 30mins with my current therapist, again.




(I still have much slinkier hips... )

I remember you used to see 100's people whizzing round French cities on those Solex motorised bikes !

However, thinking about it, it was probably 40+ years ago though ... :shock:

Other than 100+ years, not much. Fashionable young Edwardians were the millenials of their day.
