Massive thanks to @Andy B. L. C for letting me have these drops among a few other choice 80's bits, nice chap to deal with.

Not a lot happened here, it fell off the bench and caused considerable damage to the leggies, frame loop and outrigger.

I picked up the flywheel cover from the chrome's though in other news.
I only need chrome rims and side casing polishing for full finish.

Am I the only one confused by "Vreeble" in the title?

Spent the weekend clearing my old council garage out, sad times, had it since I was 12 (1995').
Spent many days wagging school in there pissing about with scoots.

Got a few hours on the GP on Sunday.
Trimmed legshields and front mudguard and wafted on some matt black just for consistency on mock build.

After having a few days of illness last week I picked up a favourite of mine, Brad's Time, Trouble and Money.
I've read it numerous times now and it seems to get better every time.

The reason for the start of my GP was this book and I'm now heavily leaning to building up that late 70's custom GP again!!!
