Hi Jags,

Doing fine, went to Croatia and Slovenia again in May this year and had a great time. Looking for somewhere for next May but have not made up our minds where to go.
The Raven was great as usual and can't fault it. Tempted to get a nomad frame and transfer everything across but can't justify the expense.

Hey Anto!
How can you say Paramo is expensive, and then think of spending £275 on paint for a frame :o

In Yorkshire father would give you a good slap an tell you to be more "careful" as frames come wi' paint but tha's born nekkid lad   ;)

Cheers
Ian
