The plan this winter was to strip the SD and repaint the frame - have got new mudguard, new collector, seals etc but the summer is approaching - It will go through its MOT OK in 4 weeks time easily
Last 6 weeks been working continuously weekend nights across 4 countries in Europe and after trip back yesterday not in the mood to start now I have a little bit of free time (Sitting on Plane at 16:00 ready for push back, 17:00 Captain announces leak in Hydraulics flight cancelled go back to check-in and no flights available out of Charles de Gaulle to London Airports - Train to Gare de Nord for Eurostar £253 for a ticket to St Pancras back home 6 hours late...but back home)
Back to the SD
So do I strip it and unlikely to complete this side of Summer or postpone until next year
If I postpone to I put the new bits on anyway - current mudguard gone in the usual places
Really want to make the Blue Lias meet this year
So Do I or Don't I

Eh? Stop being a blood hound and give the forum your undivided.....reading between the lines is dangerous.
