  1. If it's a Super Colony then surely they cannot be 'Rare' can they?

    In my view it will greatly reduce pollution from vehicles as they

    won't be going through all the villages and changing gears etc.

    It removes the traffic from the villages that are complaining

    of 'Rat Runs' and yet they don't want the link road!!

    What is the manifold made from Bill?

    It is mild steel tubing sandblasted(Not shot blast) then sprayed with copper

    paint spray designed for BBQ's. Has worked really well and is certainly different!

  3. A Baofeng PMR Radio. Has a spare battery and a second 
    charger.(One was suspect so got another!) Also included 
    is an earpiece with a built in microphone on a stalk. 
    Good condition and comes with Instruction manual. 
    As above, if interested, PM me with a reasonable offer.

  4. Had one of those. Was my last bike before giving up biking for good. Covered most of the UK on it, Toured Northern Ireland twice including going round the Northwest 200 route, Holland and Germany twice too. Never missed a beat and I usually got around 210 miles to a tank of fuel. I sold my 1200 Trophy to get it and would have another in a heart beat. Best bike I ever owned.

    So I now have a choice for my next project: a steel narrowboat once helmed by Timothy West, or a GRP cruiser what's hit a bridge on the Lot. Hmmm...heads or tails???  :default_biggrin::default_biggrin::default_hiding:

    Tim hit a LOT of everything...........:default_beerchug:

    told to go into properties where they do not feel safe to do so but the boss doesn`t give two hoots.

    Not true to all!! My daughter-in-law is the manager of a very large

    plumber/electrician/building maintenance company and many of

    her staff don't want to go in to some house which she is contracted

    to do. She has many mental problems now for having to send

    them into those places and has many sleepless nights and also tears!

    She's between a rock and a hard place through trying to help people

    and also trying to keep her employees safe. She can't win whatever she does!!

    Are they still there, what a waste shame to see it in such a state. Does Bill own them? 

    The last time I spoke to Bill, he did still own them but did say someone was interested in buying them.

    Never happened though.

    I have a feeling it wasn't actually stuck but that they made a decision to push/pull it through to get it back .

    It was stuck fast! I watched it all for some time. Being pulled by one of Martham's boats and being pushed by a dingy which he kept pulling back and then giving it some 'nudges' and it eventually came free.

    This time next year, we hope to be settled in a bungalow, somewhere in Norfolk.  Why should I be sorry about that?

    We did it 2.1/2 years ago. Wouldn't go back to where we came from. Love it here!!

  10. Oh bloody 'ell!! This was our favourite eatery and the owner, Angie, was a friend of ours too for several years.

    She basicly retired 2yrs ago and employed staff to run it on her behalf, just going in to help out when needed.

    We are gutted :default_icon_e_surprised:
