Too far north for me!  I'm off to the Bristol Classic Show at Shepton Mallet to rattle a collecting box on the NABD stand.

At last! Some signs of life! Maybe not intelligent life, but life. Was beginning to think I'd forgotten to unlock the door or something. Hi Bobbi.
Yodie, I hesitate to ask, but what is that sticky-up bit on your cart for? Are you chief cart pilot? No chrome?
Bobbi, don't suppose you'd like to take a digi camera along & be our roving reporter at the Bristol show? Two of my oldest, bestest friends from the Fox & Hounds MCC will be displaying their black Benelli Sei there, (6 cylinder 750 I think). If you should happen to bump into them -Fran & Karen -please say a heartfelt Hi from me. ;)

I can't wait to see the pictures! If the Manky crew had built it it'd be done in 1 1/2" tube & as strong as a Sherman tank  -but wouldn't be ready till next year!;D

Should've been a lot quicker. We've had a lot of other stuff to do over the last couple of weeks &, knowing you wouldn't be collecting till next weekend, have scaled the production line down. Bound to be a mad, last minute rush to get it finished now!

Buggah!  Didn't see this before I went, didn't take my camera, didn't see much of the show actually cos I was busy on the stand, having been given a free ticket I felt I ought to earn it!
I did fall totally in love with a really beautiful gleaming 750/4 that won Best Honda.
And I got some duck tape for a quid a roll instead of the ridiculous price they want fior it in the shops!  Can always rely on that show for useful stuff at sensible prices.

I'm very tempted to ask about this sausage business but know I'd regret it so I won't. Bobbi, how does one tape a duck? And why would you want to?
