[Rob Farmer]

Ridiculous idea!! I've never smiled on my life.

 

[Shadwell]

Nice one!

Enjoyed that, thanks very much for taking the trouble to post it all.

I do however have a small concern regarding your quote -
" ...... but the smiling border guard only gave my Passport a cursory glance, preferring to talk about English football (something I know next to nothing about) ........."

Is this for real ?
There are people about who know next to nothing about English football ?
Tonight BBC1 7:45 pm.
David, be there.

I think I know what you mean. You wouldn't believe the state of my sock drawer. I can put off tidying it no longer.

Great idea I tidied up all of my old T shirts this morning now I've got something 'interesting' to do this evening.

PS I've now got a 2 foot high pile of HD T shirts that I couldn't use/wear out if I lived to 150 and can't bear to sling out - memories
PPS Sorry to get off topic

Fantastic read, great use of Respirator Haversacks to, I've got a couple of those in the attic if anyone wants them.

Got to get off my arse and get a bit further afield than Germany / Czech republic after reading things like this.

I'll have em off you if you still have em and I'll chuck a few bob in the local charity tin

Cracking ride report and pics , well done .
