Got the series 1 Gem out today, thinking a 'tinker' would be required as its not been started for over a year. It started on half a turn of the handle! Now that did surprise me :-D Its moved to a neighbours garage for now, all ready for the Smallholders show. I needed the space to load the trailer with the Bantam, Atco, and both Landmaster Saturns in readiness for 'Strawberries and Steam' show this weekend at Wanborough, near Swindon Wilts. Anyone here likely to be going???

my boy and me were a bit bored today so i dragged this old bike frame out that i bought at ardenly last year, we chopped the headstock off and welded one from a pitbike on, chucked the forks in, fitted a 5.5hp honda engine did a few other bits and four hours later we hit the road

Here's a couple more

1. Having to do as you were told. 2. Proper Wagon Wheels at thrupence each. My Saturday morning treat for going for the shopping. I was six. 3. No child seats in cars. 4.
