Meanwhile I'm glad to announce the formal re-opening of the Yorkshire Embassy to the frozen North. All are welcome if they know which road signs to follow and which to ignore, one of the latter takes the unwary over a fair sized cliff for instance. The minefields are working well and Igor has a plentiful thupply of thpare parths. The Embassy motto* has been painted on the study wall and anyone who needs help will get it. So long as it cost nowt!
To put the top hat on my day I got my Kettwiesel 'Tirpitz'** back today following new wheels being fitted after one hub flange fell apart***.
*Eat all, sup all, pay nowt
And if ever thy does owt fer nowt
Always do it fer th'sen.
** So called because it's big Grey and German.
*** I don't know you buy something, hammer the hell out of it for 8 years and it needs repairing! Jerry building at its best.
Finally anyone passing the embassy and wanting a coffee please drop in.
To the cafe in the village I understand they do excellent cake too!
