I never realised what a professional business you had until I saw your yard sign in the photo.

 

You have an                OFFICE            very professional.

 

A bar that sells             BOA

                                    ALES              which you have kept quiet    

                                                            about. cheers  

 

And a                         TOILET            which you must have with            

                                                           a bar.

Hi Jon,

The hood on that Moggie looks almost new. Did the polish come up well? are the doors good?

The worlds  parts suppliers for Moggies seem to be in Devon & Cornwall, you used to be able to get most if not all the parts including lower or full door skins.

Be it cars or boats remember to wax on and wax off, worked well for the Karate Kidd, just in case you need some exercise. :naughty:

 

Regards

Alan

Can't wait to be home on the broads!

Hope your all well?

Hi Jon,

 

I thought you were just being your loveable self.

 

One of the joys of being self employed.

 

It should be made compulsory for every one at some time in their lives so they can appreciate what it is like to run a small business.

 

My first in line would be all politicians and people who work in tax offices and VAT departments, doubtful it would give them a sense of humour, but you never know. :naughty:

 

I bet you could tell us some tales Jon.

 

Regards

Alan
