Is this a "project" in the same way that I currently have three "on going projects" for at least the next 18 years? :wink: :?: :?:

Quite a while I'm afraid..... got a new "project" that's about to start which is going to take up all of my time........! :roll:

I will finish it, but it will just take alot longer than I anticipated!
We are eagerly waiting to meet/hear news about your new 'project' which will be well worth putting Libby on hold for a while.

Cheers

Only 18 years? I think that's optimistic, certainly in our case. Still, the eldest is getting married next year, so that will (might) be one down. He'll be 26.

Great news with Mike's estate though. And to Alan and Sam too of course.

Cheers,
Mike.

Well they're currently 9, 6, and 3 so thats based on the youngest being at least 21... Possibly a tad optimistic, but then I did say 'at least'. I've currently got all three 'projects' at home.. Once being child minded, and the other two 'allegedly' sick... not that you'd know!

Can't believe I was the last to post on this thread nearly a year ago..... Well anyway its good to see that the Triumph 2500 FF is almost done... it looks incredible Mike, and I must make the effort to get to see it in the flesh at a show some time.
