Ideally XC would want standardisation, so having all the 220/221s together is more practical than adding some 180s.

January was the soft launch of the SWR 701s, so I spent the day trying to get all the Aventra types in use on a random day.

I’ll do more 2024 pics later, but will finish July with this. I won a 7-a-side trophy at the @canaries.co.uk CSF The Nest facility. Lumbering striker who doesn’t score but does assist!

It’s still July, but a day trip to #Paris happened. This was the 23rd, which is the anniversary of Dad dying, so I did something to cheer me up.

Also in May, I went to see PSG in the Coupe de France final in Lille. That was an awesome experience.

2024 in review and we’re into May. #Vienna was the destination. I had a respiratory illness and got infested with bed bugs. Not a fan of the Austrian capital.
