Signed!

Do not wish to be smug but my 2a is an Historic Vehicle and does not attract Road Tax. Also totally English, although in this day and age I probably should not raise that flag. As ever, Hugo

I always leave such matters to Nurse, she is such a treasure. As ever, Hugo

Agreed. I also enjoy using my Mitchell 300 and a small Shimano, a gift from my daughter. Regards, Hugo
