That was the hardest sale I made during the whole day but it was well worth it! :rofl:

I personally thought that it was a great turnout, and as the Vincent OC weren't there I'm convinced that the turnout was greater. I love the banter being behind the counter and acting out my much undeserved grumpy reputation! :beer: :beer:
You're a rotten actor Rob, you don't look a bit grumpy.

My disguise is even better Rob! That's not even ME! :rofl: :rofl: That was Andy after hearing he'd lost out on taking more than £1 from thrifty Peter! :rofl: :rofl:

Enjoyed the open day, good to see lots of people and have a chat with some new faces and old acquaintances. Also lots of bikes for sale which I believe one was sold on the day just how it should be and hopefully it will continue for years to come. Well done to all who made it happen.

Oh oh, even though Peter spent a LOT of money on gaskets, He STILL has a problem with the P11. He may be after a refund when he next sees you Rob :rofl:

Non-refundable Peter. I gave thrifty the option of spending over £5 to ensure a refund was possible but he came over all faint and opted for the non return option of £4.85 ish :rofl:

Its not the new gasket , I thought I could get a few more years out of it and that oil was there before I carefully parked the bike at the 'Butchers hook café as the destination of out brunch run today

I will fit the new gaskets during the next scheduled maintenance in 2020. although its more likely that there will be some unplanned maintenance before then

and Peter , its funny we don't get a picture of the oil under your show winning bike , or perhaps that was there before you parked as well !
