Laughing and she thought she was getting a bargain when I said I originate from Cornwall, descendent of 'tin miners' and use to working in confined spaces all day. Whistle

"Just had to share.
This morning was a fast bicycle ride over Exmoor with the club, in the sunshine, no wind, really flying along the coast road to Lynmouth from Porlock. Views across to Wales were fabulous.
On the Simonsbath road at Brendon 2 Gates was a camera crew filming the new Evoque convertible, that will be a hit, not much use to you hairy arsed types, but will be parked ten deep at the school gates.
Then this afternoon got started on the spring barley into a perfect seedbed. I'd found Genesis "Selling England by the pound" on my cd pile, hadn't heard that for years, turned it up to 11 and put it on repeat all afternoon.
And it gets better tomorrow, the lovely wife and I are off to Venice for the week.
Isn't life great!

Ah, "Selling England By The Pound" brings back fond memories - sex, drugs n rock n roll: "I know what I like and I like what I know" Wink And it wasn't an Evoke rag top but my white Triumph Vitesse and Jeanette at my side (she ran off and married her karate instructor!)

What does it look like with the roof up & how big is the boot with it all folded in? Why is the door a different shade of grey, has it had a bump already? Nice to see it in another colour other than white.
I know a fireman who can do that modification in about 5 minutes. Not quite as neat, granted. Laughing Poke it, Poke it, make it do it again!!
