Serious suggestion - could aim to do it in 2011?
(ps: small prob of not having asked my better half might get in the way. Unless we do it when she's in Spain :-)))

Good news from Carole Nash today. After sending them a sheaf of receipts, tons of photos and a well worded letter, they have granted this bike an Agreed Value of a staggering £8300. Crikey.

The polishers polish is Meguiars NXT metal polish, you can get it from Halfords and other places, think blue pot with horrible green lid. Smells of something like bubblegum!
