Nor did I ever imagine a snotty nosed kid from Sneinton would be where he is today. Aint life surprising?

Gissa go mate

That's a cactus?

Didn't work NBL

So we are taught Loppy but it seems to me most of the worlds problems are created and solved by violence.

Margie, substitute 1st grandson and you have it to a T

Should we not ask what you did to provoke her Ben?

at least you're not this bad!!

Theres a 'footprint' grip there that I've not seen a long while.

Ooo, bad Grandad, bad.

I simply don't believe it. Given the spread of wild deer in the UK and 1400 deer colisions a week there would be an outcry in the areas that have them.

Good lord NBL I never thought I'd see one of those again. My Grandad had one and used it extensively. One of his hobbies (he had many) was making fancy budgie cages and as you say the flame was pencil point accurate for soldering. He worked as a 'gasman', I wonder if that's where he got it from?

Seriously! Seventy four thousand deer collisions a year! Thats two hundred and two a DAY! Gimme a break...

When I cleared my dads there was over 3cwt of imperial tools that went to the scrapyard. Made me sad that a mans working life went for scrap especially as he was so proud of his collection gathered over half a century.

Oh keeping fit for me is dead easy. I get all my excercise by osmosis after reading Plantfits bike rides!

The secret of many trades if it's not working. 1 - You're not hitting it hard enough 2 - You need a bigger hammer

Excellent pics, thanks. I'm surprised at the size of the rear disc brake for such a small contact patch.

He's not the only one either. I'm thinking of those so called 'alternative' comedians who rode the wave of sometimes quite nasty routines that were not really funny.

Brilliant news, I wonder if his Lamaness the Blessed Chulla did a 'laying on of hands' when he visited you?

Like Banjo I too wondered about tension and expected to see a sprung idler somewhere but I can those tubes will prevent any whip in the slack side. The idler you show us takes care of the change in direction, how about a nice pic of the gear set?

Gerrit dahn yer, do yer gud

I remember that round tower. Anderson 1&2 wards. i was in there after doing a superman impression over the handlebars of my bike.

Yup them's 'em PF. Saw them mainly around the Midland Station / London Road area.

I'm amazed that SFC is only run 'part time' and is all a bit 'ad hoc'. They have facilities what many flying clubs in the midland envy. I think Donnair or Derby would make better use it.

I can remember the grey coloured ones as well. They had an angular look as opposed the curved cab of the one in the pic. The trailer coupling was known as a 'Scammell coupling' and though simpler to connect involved a lot of moving parts. When you 'dropped' the trailer the legs were sprung loaded and lowered automatically. I found a pic but can't upload it.
