A real treat Mr Manx and an education too on quite a few makes


I'm glad you're liking it and I have to be honest I'm enjoying doing my Tour Table. This afternoon I'm off to Never Never Land. All will be explained at my table.

Central Australia?

I'm not familiar with any brand from there.

Ok, I've post my Never, Never mobiles. THese are the ones I think I'll never find out who made them. But..... the forum keeps getting bigger. Someone may just recognise one of the engines and that would just make this weekend bloody perfect.

Well I've done my last post for the weekend and have arrived back at home. It's been loads of fun and I've enjoyed showing off a few of my mobiles.

Thanks everyone. Loads of fun and lets do it all again next year.

Manx, the trip round the world with you was pleasure.

As I said at the start. "What a great idea."
