He arranged for a mate to have a look in the skip as promised where he threw the front panniers in Bhasra in 2003 and would you believe it - they only went and emptied it yesterday !!!!!!!!!!!! :(

I haven't a photo of your brother but here is one he took of me, tim and ifor with a chelsea pensioner when we went up for the bike. The old guy kept asking ifor if he was a girl because of his long hair.

A great day out, well worth organising a club outing if he'd mind doing a tour again.

Your picture Dave) with your uncle is almost outside my brothers house. Will speak to him about athe option of a tour, it is more likely to be how soon do you want to do it rather than anything else.

Asap Mike I think, he's 97 now so not expecting him to be around much longer, he's gone down hill a bit over the last couple of years, he's a real character, he was captured by the Japs in WW2 and held as a POW, he can tell a tale or 2.
He was featured in the TV program there.

Excellent photo Dave, stick a beard on him and he'll look just like you only younger.
