Default Pickering Sunday Quiz

I was going to ask why you thought Bryn was smiling but I'll tell you. He had been ill all week and had totally lost his voice. I heard one engine owner remark that it was the best commentary he had heard from Bryn in a long time. Note the brandy and coke and the oily rag he rubbed on his chest.

The second is a real quiz - Who had the brightest boots at the show?

The last one is a caption competition

Mr Whitwell's latest output I suspect.

Engine list here also suggests so, but gives no number, just classes it as a B5:

Not that I think it is, but could it be 7871?

I fancy that the third speed arrangement with the belled flywheel came later than any engine with a 78xx number , and that with that number it would be a B4 .

Do you think that the dynamo has been mounted sky high to keep the belt clear of the tank ?
