I believe it's storage for RM Sotheby's auctions when awaiting it's day for going under the hammer. CGSB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownnova Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 On the ramp… following a reminder that the handbrake is on the front on these… Its a PASS! Usual advisory for King pin lift… Penultimate compulsory MoT completed! Only 737 miles between MoTs! The lowest since the online records began and only just over half the mileage of the previous couple of years. I think this is a pointer that I need to use it more!

grogee Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 I am visiting family in Lincs. Down the road is Halls Garage, an MG specialist. I popped in to say 'hi' and promised I'd return with the Maestro once the weather improves. They were really friendly bearing in mind we dropped in unannounced. It's an interesting little place. Service and repair garage for 'normals' with a forecourt of BL chod thoroughbred sports cars. Nice little 'mini museum' inside. Recommended - it's on the A15 north of Bourne. adw1977, Dyslexic Viking, High Jetter and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the wind was blowing earlier you could see the pollen coming off the trees like a snow storm. Yes, I had a bumble bee yesterday morning, as I was having a teams meeting.
