  7. Just a quick tuppenceworth. I was quite keen to see them in the Fort and cosmetically, I wasn't hugely impressed, the girder frame does not work when you look at the cleaner lines of all the competition, putting the Greeves next to the Ossa is like looking at the latest Zonda R beside a model T.I wanted to be impressed and wanted to find something to like but I was stumped. Later in the week I saw one in pieces on a stand in parc ferme and it looked like a bodge job, there really was nothing there that I could say looked right. I hate to put a downer on the team that's building them but to put something that doesn't look right and doesn't work right into a hugely competitive and small market where reliability sells borders on commercial suicide to me. I hope things turn round for them but I don't see how.

  18. Headline news......up to Wednesday looks superb then it's starts to drift a wee bit. All the European models look consistent out till Wednesday which generally means high confidence in the conditions. Beyond that there are strong signs of the settled conditions breaking down.

  22. Buggers sent my census form back In answer to the question, 'Do you have any financial dependents?', I put, 'Asylum seekers, pikeys, smack heads, lazy unemployable scroungers, the cast of The Jeremy Kyle Show, the British Banking System and thieving b****rd MPs!' Apparently these answers are unnaceptable........
