    It's time to admit I have a problem...

    I was walking out the back to lock up the shed tonight and as I walked past the two series ones lined up in the back yard it crossed my mind that the easterly breeze carried a distinct scent of old lubricant, grease and gear oil. As I locked up the shed I pondered that that smell is almost as good as the scent of baked on dust and lubricant that you get on old tractors.

    Ok I admit I have a problem, anyone else have a similar ailment

    Regards,
    Tote

    I moved my work desk so I could see my Landy through the window, even though a picture of it is my computer background and I have model Landies on my desk.

    I don't see any problem

    I like nothing more than going down to the shed where the stage 1 sits on blocks waiting for me and having a nice quite beer and a chat

    Its only a problem when you attend meetings and frequent support groups.

    it's amazing how the smell of something takes you back,the smell of Castrol 2 stroke always takes me back to my mate Spratts garage the night he took delivery of a brand new Kawasaki 250 S1C,he'd started and stopped it that much the plugs had oiled,when I got it going the garage was full of 2 stroke smoke,and that was Jan 1976.
