About uk_exile
Biography:
I'm not british. Its a username only! I'm a kiwi, born here, lived here 29yrs then due to work moved to UK late 1990s. Returned to NZ 2003. It was while working in UK that I chose my online username for all online stuff and have kept it ever since. It's not because of any connections or loyalty to UK. Have never need back to UK since 2003 and hope I never need to except maybe as part of an european holiday sometime in future. Can't say I hated it but certainly disliked the lack of freedom & was just there for work.

    I can certainly see how T7 is tempting but personally I'd spend around same money at Aliexpress and wait 2-3wks for delivery. Why? T7 version is 3.2kg and the Naturehikes (& other clones) 2kg or...
