Deggsy – If not at Stoneleigh, I will definitely be arranging a forum gathering in 2018.

Roadster – I will be putting the numbers on this morning.

Looking forward to filming the sequel to The Harrow Job, but may wait until the warm weather returns.

Barber & Molleur – I hope to start my ‘On The Road’ thread later today.

Lancelot – My car certainly looks related to the one of the cars on the cover of that book.

As the roundels are not self-adhesive, it will be easy to remove them again if they don’t work.
( But I’m hoping the yellow background will work well with the nose band. )

Dave – The LED reflectors are actually ‘Stop/Tail’ lights, so I wired both together to get ‘Fog’.

Here is a photo I took at night when the rear lights had blown and I limped home with the fog lights on.

Take care, Paul.
