SE5/a in its natural pelt, grazing cautiously while keeping a weather eye out for predators.

The wings have fallen off your biplane.

Cipher books are available.

Yes, more or less by accident; I was going to Bradfield from Newbury. Normally I would drive a bit past The Prancing Horse in Thatcham and turn north but I wondered if there was a way through if I went up by the Spotted Dog in Cold Ash.

It's albino, so has retained the winter coat longer into spring.

And there was me thinking these were rare period extras.
One on the near dude as well.

I was asked to post these here. This was inside the workshop, a Mini instantly seen, but at the back a lot of motor cycle wheels and parts. Impossible to make out what though.



But outside this lot:-















I left a card in the letter box and hope someone will contact me

Spotted this last week in Southampton, even a mouldy 1.3Gl 4 door must be worth £15k+ on ebay...

I cycle past this classic graveyard occasionally on my evening rides. Looks like there's an alfa 164, three old roadsters (I can't work out what they are but I get the feeling it's painfully obvious edit: think they're triumph TR7s?) and I think there are one or two others lurking in the undergrowth at the back.

I snapped this one tonight



And this one is from streetview.

I agree.

[samj2014]

I reckon you're right. Good shout, they're much cooler.

Unrelated, I also cycled past a lovely Lanci Fulvia this evening. First time I'd seen one in the flesh I think - such a pretty car.

Looks a bit like my old 164...
