Continued, never ending garage clearance.

I have now booked a plot at the Newark autojumble for the weekend of January 5/6th. Most of my plot will be covered with Morini 350/500 parts, and a few random other bike bits. As I've decided not to build another Kanguro I do have most of a bike to sell.
Newark is not too far from Harwich for anyone wanting to come over and take advantage of the exchange rates. Also bear in mind that now Stuart has retired spares for these bikes will increase in value at least ten fold, so buy now before I cotton on to that.
I want another exotic holiday this year so need to raise a few rupees to cover it. Never mind all those charity envelopes and TV ads asking you to fund their CEO's upkeep-you need Morini spares NOW while they are still available and I need your cash. You know it makes sense. Treat yourself to a Morini stash boost for the new year. :)

Yes! But how did you know? You haven't seen me walking, as far as I know. Anyway it's a popular career choice for us ex crab sooties.
I wonder how soon a translator will be needed?

No it won't Mark, sorry. Thing is, you have to be 'in the know' to well, know. (taps nose and winks)


Still, no secret handshakes or funny outfits required to buy some Morini bits and bobs. 8)

I'll ask the stackers sir. I might be able to find you a long weight in the meantime?

Sorry but supply says no stock. Only kph kanguro instruments. Happily the blarts aren't the issue this tour. It's more akin to how many kites can I get serviceable before it's tourex.

Anyway sir, as you're called Steve too, can I call you Rodney to keep things clear? :wink:

Snowdrop would be nearer the mark a few years ago, though only in appearance :D
Not to worry about the speedo, the mishcrit ain't desperate.

Cheers Steve (no comma)

Blimey, started something here. My boy is a working on some rapid bits of hardware and soon off to sunny climes for a holiday, although he says some work may occur between the bouts of topping up the tan and drinking some beer.

Looks like a trip to Newark may be in order (please, no anagrams...).

Bring your anorak, that will be more use at Newark. Also don't forget that if you don't carry a vernier caliper, steel rule and a tape measure in the pockets we the stallholders won't take you seriously.

Cheers! Steve (I used to work on Commers too!)

Thanks, Simon and Jamie both. Replies sent. At this rate I will only need half the space in my van! Maybe it's true that Kanguro stuff is becoming sought after?
