Title: Badges
Post by: Laverdaroo on March 24, 2023, 03:15:02 PM: Anybody got any broken 500 badges that have the ‘F’ in orange still intact? Just need the ‘f’s for mine as they’re bright red and will look a bit crap on an orange bike so I would like to replace them if at all poss…….

Anyone?

Cheers

Post by: Laverdaroo on March 24, 2023, 07:45:47 PM: Yeah, I’m often on the look out for broken badgers

On this occasion it’s not my crap typing but your dodgy eyes

Quite fancy a banger though, they’re quite cool!

Packaged up and will be posted Monday.

Still haven't found my collection of broken badges, took them out of some restored badges until the others show up. Didn't realise I had some many side panel badges, around 6 I think. Found another still on a side panel that needs repainting. More work :( :( :(

Post by: Laverdaroo on March 25, 2023, 08:21:34 PM: Of course that would be far too easy, I might have an original if you want that bud?

Post by: Laverdaroo on March 25, 2023, 08:40:52 PM: Pure O2 on most of em, that tanks on l compressed air for about an hour for the trip back to the fish house for sorting. They look pissed off cos they’ve been netting, weighed buggered about with et but they’ll be right once they’ve gone into salt water back the fish house tanks, the salt makes them over produce mucus and gets em to respire faster which brings them back on for really quick, show yer tmrw, they’ll be mint

Post by: Oddjob on March 25, 2023, 10:33:38 PM: Did I ever tell you BIL has a very large pond in his back garden? Has around 10-12 pegs on it, a punt for doing the duck houses and is infested with blood worm. He owns a fishing shop in Stockport as well. Only ever fished it once, got there and he was on a roach pole and I always felt they were kind of cheating so I’ve never used one, he offered me a go and I sat down on this landing sticking out over the water, about 10 mins later it collapsed under me and threw me into the water up to my shoulders, my other BIL was fishing the other side of the pond and he runs round, I think he’s coming to pull me out but the bugger sods off into the house to get a camera, I can’t move, I’m up to my knees in mud, Barry the owner comes out, sees me stuck there and says “ I hope you’re still holding my rod”
