Yes I went there. Thanks for the heads up Chaz. I think one of the 2 speedos was half empty. It felt too light. I didn't bid for long on that pair - they went for £420. (plus 20%commission!)

I think the wife of the deceased made over 70k from the sale. couple of bargains didnt perform so were sold after , made the wise move of paying a listing fee before around £35 per lot then didnt hvae to pay sellers comission after;)

Hi Editor John,
Did you find out what the brake plate is from? I think I have a similar one.
AJS?

No, I haven't been given any ideas. If you have one, perhaps we should start a club, Brenton.

Hi Jess, I hope this works, it now has a set of panniers fitted, on has the large battery holder in it, which I believe was used for the radio set.
