We all want to be individual but when the swell of opinionm points in a certain direction . . .

Everyone is diferent and has thier own ideas. But don't be affraid to change.

Good luck.

The reason people bang on about TKCs are because they are the well known choice for a 50:50 knobbly (and were probably the only choice for many years), and frankly people are quite unimaginative sometimes.

Don't be afraid to change
