Maybe he's got a wide bottom Ron. I haven't met Mr B yet so can't comment on his posterior pertness.
Shaun, that's about as likely as me fitting a Pop, a Charger & 2 trikes into my schedule.  Tongue

Ask Santa for a sat nav. You'll need it and so will anyone else who visits you as it's the only way you'll find your way around  Grin

if i had my own way id bring it in the house but i dont think my better half would see the funny side mate.

I thought I was the only one daft enough to smooth off my welds!
Going rate for Metro handbrake levers down Sarf seems to be 5 to 10 quid. Or 40 quid for Taz's ultra posh lever action stainless one.
If you say you got 'em for nothing I'm gonna come up there & slap you.  Angry
