Good luck finding a replacement, they are a rarity now.
I was told that they come from Brazil and the supply has dried up.

May purchase one from them.
I bought one in Home Bargains for six quid after seeing a young lad carting one around for his dad.
Went to buy one for my son, all gone.
Saw a similar one in Wilko's but it was £17.

All the others are tiddly little soft brushes.

Not done much other than wash/machine polish the Activa and the AX......I have also rebuild/cleaned/de-oxided'd/de-gunk'd the carb on one of my back up generators......winter storm protection is needed when you are a country bumkin at the end of a spur from a village that runs through/over a wooded hill

Good work and great to see Daffodil looking clean and happy Alasdair

Carbs really don't like modern petrol... You should have seen the state of Bluebell's...

Nobody who has ever met you would call you a bumpkin.

Alasdair's the exact opposite of me James

He's a townie living in the county and I'm a country bumpkin living in a town

I'm still teaching him how to be a proper county bumpkin - the reason for my frequent visits

On the other hand, he's doing a good job of teaching me the finer points of being a townie!

Daffodil is now a pick up (with a roof)...........well, wheel chair carrier and dump runner

Away for the winter, it has been allergic to salt all its life and it is staying that way !

Nite nite lovely Activa ZZZZzzz

Poor Daffodil will now have to suffer all that horrible Somerset salt and mud

Hope you have waxed her well Alasdair

It has so much wax on its undersides I think it needs Brazilian numberplates
