I've been laid up for eleven days now with a cold/virus, not the Big Ceauxvid, and have watched a lot of old films meantime.

) I used to live about seven miles from Wareham, on Poole Quay. Wuz there for fourteen years but never visted Clouds Hill. Yon bike he's on (RK 4907) was named 'George V'. The interesting thing about Broughs is that they were factory bitsas - George Brough bought in all the 'best parts' from other manufacturers and assembled them into 'a superior motorcycle' tested and guaranteed to hit the magic ton. On those roads???? Jeez!
