    Another grand film, thanks for making them Daz. You’re making me want aero bars. At our house we have bacon and egg butties one week and square sausage (Hubster is Scottish) and egg the alternate week. During the pandemic I struggled to get the square stuff.
    So I resorted to making my own, and it goes down a treat.

    • @MrDazP1adv3ntures
      @MrDazP1adv3ntures  2 роки тому +2

      The aero bars are actually very comfy to use and offer a nice grip when climbing Sophie.
      The only drawback is fitting lights and things to them.
      Square sausages sounds good too. I'll tell Mike about em. Thanks once again for your support and watching this video.....

    I going to show my age here, but seeing the fleeting mention the ‘Pennine Way walkers’ brought back memories of hiking it back in ‘86. The Wainwright’s book entitled me to 1/2 a pint at the finish. It probably wouldn’t buy a packet of pork scratchings now 😂 Keep safe out there.
