Major Nichols, Bates, Mercian, etc. Being a long fellow myself, The Carlton Longfellow in particular caught my eye. Luckily for my domestic situation the auction house is in Bristol and I'm not...

Unfortunately the link doesn't take you to the lot item.

However whilst watching the Wales/Italy match this afternoon I have been through the lots at this exceptionally interesting auction house and from this lot onwards there are a lot of very interesting items up for sale: -

I spent most of Friday night deliberating about it and even managed to get permission but with a full garage i don't need another "keeper" at the moment

This dilemma must be an occupational hazard. I spend vast amounts of energy arguing with myself about should l or shouldn't l go for this or that and end up not doing anything . l blame it on my Libra star-sign

Hmm it is also in the right area for maximum credibility i.e. Mnt. Ventoux , I'm tempted but it is too big for me so l would have to look at it for a while then try to move it on, can l be bothered ? Especially as the TVT is still on the cards !
