  1. Brilliant! Who's the little chap squatting on the end of the handlebars?
  2. Wouldn't want to fall in that.
  3. Love the horses. There's a chap from your side of the border, comes to a charity ploughing match I'm involved with, with a pair of horses. Great to watch.
  4. If memory serves, the Canterbury double adult sidecar was usually hitched to a 600cc Panther single 4 stroke sloper. A company called Pride and Clarke somewhere around London sold them in the 50's. The advent of the Mini killed off sidecar sales. Great fun to drive an outfit once you got used to one. Terrifying at first. I had a 650 Ariel with a sports sidecar.
  5. Be good to see you lads at the HVC ploughing match end of March.
  6. Cheers Hangman. Just wasn't sure about the 1.
  7. Wondered how you got on. The day has been some what wet up here. Well done. BTW. Is that a C-81 with the plough?
  8. I won't be attending, but the mention of the Lavender Line sent me to Google maps. About 35yrs ago I was staying with friends at Wrotham and visited a railway. Turns out that was it. Thanks for jogging the memory.
  9. Some will recall this Wheel Horse C-81. Bought in the condition you see it. Nicely done by Martin Hurst, who I bought it off well over a year ago. Unfortunately progress has been somewhat slow. Actually practically none existent due to other factors. But hopefully in the next week or so things will progress.
  10. Don't say that after I scrapped one. Mind it was very, very far gone. Still got the engine though.
  11. Not a show, but as stated. 30th March at Brisco, Carlisle. Just off junction 42 M6. Entries now being taken. Contact :- Norman Elliot 01228675336. You Scottish lads interested.
  12. Just noticed the Fordson Dexta stickers. Nice touch.
  13. I'm not a fan of powder coating.
  14. Security device for the bicycle next to it? Medieval martial arts weapon?
  15. The only downside is painting them.
  16. Coils were shot on the engine I had. I got it running with a coil off a car and a 12v battery.
  17. Darn sight better than this side of the Border.
  18. The gate leading to my front door, railings separating garden from drive and yard and along front of decking above pond, all came from what other people were throwing out and free.
  19. I was given one of those B.S.A. engines some years ago. Some low life lifted it from my previous home when I was moving.
  20. Beat me to it, S1g. Criminals have more rights than victims here. Thanks to that traitor Tony B Liar.
