RE: A bit about your self - Gadgetman - 04-05-2014
45 year young viking, working as a server admin and user support in a big government agency.
Known to take a hike(in the mountains around where I live), go kayaking in the fjord, or even ride a bicycle no and then(electrified, of course. Got to live up to my username... )
My Berlingo is the 5th car I've owned(started with a GS I 'inherited' from my mother, a CX which was the best darn long trip car I've ever driven, the BX Estate that was backed over by a 6WD dump-truck... A Berlingo that was totalled by a runaway SUV n a parking lot, and now the replacement Berlingo)
My crappy Chinese-built scooter has done 10500miles, and been transported in the back of my Berlingo several times after breaking down...
(It will no longer harass other motorists)
I can also drive tractors and I know how to milk a cow...
My favorite fishing spot is along one of the bridges of the Atlantic Ocean Road...

I'm Keith and have reached the big 50, self employed architectural technician, spend most of my free time working at classic vehicles of which there are 3 minis, a bus, 2 lorries and 2 tractors. So I'm more into the older stuff, can't stand the beepers and warning tones in modern stuff if you dont put on your seat belt, although the berlingo has reversing sensors which are invaluable.
