Hopefully Bitsa you can see why my bike is in the conservatory in bits, next to a nice warm radiator, radio on and kettle not far away. Mind you, the young Lurcher, Peggy, has taken a shine to one of the rubber foot pegs and keeps eyeing it up as chewing matter, and the terriers keep running off with the bloody spanners. But who cares, I'm warm and cosy ;D ;D ;D
