Already did that I took one of the cushions off of one of my jockey seats and put some ubolts into the bottom of it and strapped a carseat down hard and to the back hard... worked well I wont be taking out the little one for a couple of years at least

Excellent news Benc. Getting all the Birthday/christmas presents in one hit could be quite cost effective

Yeh. know what you meen.

Spend 12months getting the little darlings to talk.

And 20 years telling them to shut up

First words our Budgy said was Mummy, Daddy and shut up

Only kidding (the bit about the telling them to shut up......The Budgy was true.....Yes....Really)

Congratulations Benc, and welcome to the world Samuel, an excellent day to be born on. Just remember if any tight gits try to get away with just sending you one birthday Xmas present do what my parents did, send them a present marked happy birthday and Xmas for there birthday in June
Richard.
