@lil chris I always turn off the stop/start but with Qashqais you have to do that every time you start the car.?
I'll find out in June whether I can ride the bike again
Shame you missed the Preston show. There was no Warrington show last year either. That and the Wigan one are sorely missed

Bet your car has stop start technology Mick, @Newportnobby  they reckon that's ok because they fit better rated batteries. But to me who spent nearly all his life in the motor trade, I turn mine off. Perhaps I am synical but are they trying to sell more batteries and starter motors. By the way hope your back is not causing to much discomfort and you can still ride that bike.

Ps sorry I missed the Preston show it would have been nice to see you again, no Wigan meet up's anymore.

Very nice.

I think they were around for a while and the subject of a bit of discounting to shift the last few, but all sold out a fair while back. I bought a "Rance and Reading" one as it had a connection to Chesham where I lived when I was little.

It runs very well. There's a lot of clearance around the crank pins but the axles are geared together.

Handsome loco, but the quartering looks a bit out. I suspect it will run like a three-legged dog.

I woke up to an email. 

Smashing lining on that livery

This one arrived today.



Dapol are selling these off at £65+p&p, but only DC and only in this livery. I thought I'd better grab one whilst I could. Next job is to see if it works and run it in.

Have fun,

Ali
