Here we go, one of our Tom waist deep in the bowels of the purple BX last Saturday assisted by Mr DLM

Tom was trying to remove the spigot on the end of the rack the ram attaches to, so the gaitor could be salvaged. After much head scratching, chin rubbing, swearing and beer, it proved far easier to swap over the racks!

I think that photo could be hung in an art gallery somewhere and entitled <font face="Comic Sans MS">"BX gives birth whilst midwife looks on"</font id="Comic Sans MS"> [:D][:D][:D]
That large object in the hand gives a definite impression that some serious force was about to be used.[;)][;)]

Now what about Tom's request, Dave - at the very least to show that Jon was very much down'n'dirty, as opposed to hanging back with a camera (here speaks the man who was hanging back WITHOUT a camera).

I think it had nothing to do with the shop personnel (no matter that they may have been at strike when my BX was produced).
I believe it all started one afternoon when the head designer said: "Well, comrades, here comes another bottle of Chateau Neuf. Ah, did some of you really mention that we need an engine to be installed in the car? OK, let us discuss this aspect later".
