Just dropped in to say farewell to you all...I've enjoyed reading the posts and amusing pictures added by your resident comedian :)

Anyway between the new trailer laws cutting our business by 50% and a Prolapsed Disk we are no longer moving bikes or anything else...business is closed down.

See neuro surgeon tomorrow so will hopefully find out what (if anything) he can do for me, my own GP has been as much use as a chocolate tea pot, took him 8 week's to send me for MRI then 3 more to get results, then he couldn't get me an appointment so gave the paperwork to my wife and told her to go online and try to book it herself.

Anyway all this waiting has given me the chance to do something else I really enjoy...Woodcarving/Pyrography & Scrollsaw, I've started making wooden items on commission and for sale...aiming to set up stall at Craft fairs & rally's next year all going to plan.

Costs much less on fuel than Courier work...lol

Take care and keep shiny side up everyone.

could you not run it from an office and let a youngster do all the heavy work, shame to lose experience.

Thank's for the good wishes guy's...hope it is onwards and upwards for you all.


I couldn't trust anyone else to move customers bikes for me besides I like to be hands on.
I can't even ride my own bike or trike the way my back is at the mo so best not to take any chances with other peoples pride & joy, so time to sell all the gear and move on.

I am enjoying expanding my hobby though and I do believe there is a market for it so it's just a change of direction and the beginning of a new chapter :)

If anyone is interested this is some of what I am doing now:
