Gaffa tape is like "the force" - it has a light side, a dark side, and it holds the universe together.
There's nothing that shouts "Poor Workmanship" more than wrinkles in the Gaffer tap

Cheers Dave, first time I've seen the completed item. Can't believe it took 12 hours of filming to get that little lot!

Was that due to you being a drama queen on location.

Couldn't believe it, didn't my own trailer, puppies, or bowls of M&M's with all the blue ones taken out. Shocking!

And yep, Swissvax Divine wax is £1300. Lovely stuff, stupid price.

That's the idea :D

Simon - Pretty good thanks mate, still keeping busy it seems so I'm not complaining. Determined to ghet the Touring back on the road for our first Ring trip in April, needs springs and dampers all round, and it's using a bit of water so that needs investigating before I MOT it. What about yourself? I saw the thread about adding a 4 door to your collection....good job fella!
