Oh yea.....

Still have a few issues as it was one of its first outings in steam. The crank makes a heck of a thump when turning, so I think the right-hand bearing is misaligned...job for the winter.

All the best,

Dave, never give up your day job!

It might just be a waste of petrol going up to Scotland when you do your stint at the Edinburgh Fringe...

(and I offered to include you in our chip run on Sat evening)

All the best,

Brian
