no worries,obviously the two vans full of cadets are doing something else then !
p.s. it was the gent in the cafe that said that.
p.p.s. wouldnt have thought a 'rumour' about a re-paint would get out of hand ??

The cadets have been on 770 on and off all week prepping the old paintwork...which they did a good job.Although i must add that there is still alot more work to do before we are ready to prime,let alone put the finish on.

It was hard work! But she looks better than she did now just by removing all the top layer of crap off her!
Cheers,
