Happy Birthday Stu
Every year I'm surprised to see that you're younger than me, I think you may have lived more of a 'life' than I have

Re: Happy birthday
Grump? Whenever I've seen him he's always been Captain Cheerful
. I generally catch him every February 29th.
Have a good day Stuart hopefully doing things you like doing.

Happy birthday Stu and may your plug leads be the right way round 

Re: Happy birthday
Happy Birthday Stuart, I shall raise a mug of tea to your health 

We go out into the hills to lose ourselves, not to get lost. You are only lost if you need to be somewhere else and if you really need to be somewhere else then you're probably in the wrong place to begin with.

Quieter than you'd think Sean - obviously not quiet but not obnoxious.

Don't recognise that lump of metal now; is it still at 250 or have you bored it out a bit? And have you had a chance to 'road test' it yet or still early days? Must have a nosey at end of month, may be a queue!

Different engine Peter. This is an AJS but the Honda is coming along quite nicely - I'm just part way through fully welding the frame up.Don't recognise that lump of metal now; is it still at 250 or have you bored it out a bit?
