No. I prefer my bed partners be kind and loving, not bitter and angry. I couldn't even hit it & quit it with his grumpy attitude.

There were a few really nice Alpina's Brice but the retail prices were $2300 and up...Better for you guys in the US, with the 30% currency discount. :crybaby:

PST is 7% and GST is 5% = 12% tax. Most AD's will at least discount the 12%.
