Nice lookin' motor you got there.
Since it's reasonably warm and sunny - I'll have a campari with fresh orange and ice - and a roll-up.
Oh, and can you transport me to southern Italy to drink it at a bar with a terrace overlooking the sea....

Cheers!

I was born and bred in Stamford,now live out in the sticks P/boro way.
The BHCN guys usually meet at Grafham Water just off the B645 between St.Neots and Kimbolton.Some great roads in the area,....:devil::devil::D

Yeah, it was only a matter of time............

Had to change the rear end for its first MOT - original cans and large plate ! Decided it would be more 'cost effective' to keep it legal !!
