Sounds like a G2G opportunity. Bit too early for me to commit at the moment, but I'd certainly like to go.



Stafford Classic Bike Show 27/28 April - peterkelly - 27-02-2013

As always, being a miserable, predictable, small-minded, boring auld git  I will certainly be there.

 

As always, I will be eating ham and cheese sandwiches, cake and a flask of coffee in the bandstand at 1230  

 

 

I am looking forward to the display of 50s british twins, vaguely snobbish veterans, and masses of memorabilia, lots of rusting tat on those stalls outside....

 
Predictable.... Moi?

 



Keep well away from me if you want to escape from the show in less than 7 hours.


 
Actually ... I am seriously considering investing £17 ( or whatever ) in the "posh show brochure" and gping to the Bonhams Auction - never done it before, so any comments advice will be welcome!  

 


 

Roll on spring

 

Roll on sunshine

Don't worry Graham - I will.

 

Its just I have never been before and fancy a look at what's on display, and what they go for (living in dreams again)

 

I'd better get a sports jacket, cavalry twills and cravat ( and a big bl..dy cheque book) for the occassion

My usual pal for the Stafford is staying back in Geordieland fixing up his newly acquired Bongo.

 

We normally have come by car in last couple of years as he is always looking for stuff for his Honda collection.

 

So ... I shall be coming by TDM as I am out on the Thruxton with the Triumph Twins group on Sunday

 

Has anyone been to the Bonhams Auction before? Never splashed out the cash for a catalogue but thinking about it this year ... any views?

 

If anyone else is going from NW, please let us know

 

Pete

Sorry Pete, work commitments on Saturday & family commitments on Sunday. Have a good time.

They would spot our lowly status immediately and hurl us through the revolving doors and into the gutter ...
