Bloody brilliant job mate. I cant believe how you managed to do that on such
a small scale - Well done :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

you,re dead right mate, it,s definitely not me in pic. When i saw it the other night i was on the computer in office which has got a bit of a dark screen.
It does look like Andy ( googe ). He finished with Nolans some years ago now Pat & the last i heard he was driving one of those Medical scanner trucks

Nice to see that article again mate. When that was done i had left Davies.
I,ve looked at your posting on other thread about the run across the Sahara.

thanks very much - there are 2 or 3 mistakes or omissions, but I’m not going to point them out :stuck_out_tongue: thought she looked better “weathered” - just looks like the sort of motor that looks better having done some graft :wink: she might get an STS tilt behind her if I get time

Trubrit:
I am in awe…“Lady fingers”… :wink:

ta, my missus says i could have played the bagpipes :confused: i prefer to think i could have made it as a gynaecologist - i also have a waterproof watch :laughing:
