Just in case your interested on my progress, will turn it on Friday while waiting for the boat, good test ride today in the rain, the corduroys don`t do water very well, but the Barbour stood up to a heavy shower.

Just 24 hours now until I leave never been so excited before going on a trip, might have something to do with working hard for the past 8 weeks.
Adventure clobber chosen, swooped this NEW then suit for a Egg and Cress Sandwich years and years ago, and its been in the shall I throw it out part of the garage in last 2 houses we have lived in.
I can assure you it stinks, I have just looked at the label to see INTERNATIONAL SUIT, they are all the rage in Essex, I looked so common in my brown jacket that I bought on here with the wording BARBOUR INTERNATIONAL, I took the label off while in Newcastle hitch hiking last year.
I have since learned being told by a learned friend that the left hand pocket of the Barbour jacket is at a
slant so as you can access your pistol, known as a pistol pocket, there you go learn something each day.

And there's me thinking it was slanted so you could get your baccy pouch out easier and have a roll up while stuck in the mud.
Ya boy ya!
Are you there yet ?
Trust progress is good.
And while I'm on, I happen to have a spare piston for one of these in the garage so if you have any problems en route then it's here if you need it.
It's free of course but if I were being picky then it probably needs a little bit of work as viewed from the top it's not quite round at the moment.
Had a bit of a meeting with a carb. slide I seem to remember.
