Beachcomber's Tales from the day
- Thread starter beachcomber
- Start date
Thanx Brodie,
On the final stretch......... the project has now been moved into a 10' x 6' shed along with all my tools and spares etc. Talk about putting a quart in a pint pot !
I will be moving in with my girlfriend at Christmas and the final odd parts to be made will start and after the frame has been finally prepped- paint applied [ Celeste Blue ] the final assembly can begin.
YES, it's taken far too long - but in the interim there's been a toxic [ expensive ] divorce and various serious health issues - resolved for the time being.
Life begins at 80 !!!!!!

Well, 2025 has been and almost gone. I'm now firmly established with my new partner and making do with my tiny 10' x 6' shed as my workplace.
The drama and trauma of the past 6 years is now a diminishing memory and I'm more determined than ever to get the two projects over the finish line.
The Boardtracker is well on the way - odds and ends need detailing plus the electrics [ arrgghhh ] to finish and the Glemseck Cafe Racer will be picked up in earnest in the new year.
Just time to wish all my DTT pals the very best for Christmas and the New Year ..... ride safe my brothers.

Talking of Ramblings ............................ 83 soon and the Tales won't write themselves ! Life definitely got in the way for the past decade [ tempus fugit ], however now time to get the galley proofs out of hibernation and checked over, then it's a big push to get them completed into some sort of "book" order and see about publishing while I'm still compos mentis and this side of the grass.
I've already started final, final proof checks and must admit I've had more than a chuckle or two while I've been revisiting my own past life.
So to those of you who have been with me on my DTT journey, I thank you for your support and encouragement ..... you never know, there might be that Coffee Table book available in the not too distant - Beachcomber's Tales from the Day.
