I've just finished watching "Into The Wild" with the GF, such a moving film about a young guy who falls out with his parents and lives wild in Alaska, I wont ruin the film but it's def worth a watch

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0758758/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1

I'll certainly be giving this a read from the start to the end when I get a few mins spare

Hi all I'm back from a challenging week or so in Porthmadoc with my brother in the caravan, as i am disabled now from the Motor Neurone Disease, so my mobility scooter had it's work cut out going up forestry trails and the like,nearly tipped it over but the castors on the back stopped it,we did about 10mls round trip which was amazing for such a little machine,i need to get an "all terrain" mob scooter next and fancy going all around Anglesey on a sponsored scoot for the MND Society sometime soon.
Anyhow some more of Bob's papers.
