Exactly 10 years ago today (Facebook reminded me) I modelled these T shirts which I had printed in advance of The Rex-Factor appearing at a number of motorhome shows the following year. It was a “world tour” because it included a gig at a campsite in Spain

Mena and I remember that trip well Martin and loved being with Jen, yourself and others. It has to be said, it was a great 'Meet'. AS others are posting younger pictures of themselves here is I when I was serving in Berlin with the British Army main battle tank unit of 12 Centurians. It was a fantastic posting and next door was a prison that held one prioner, guraded by armed guards from France, UK, Russia & U.S.A. who rotated every week with tower searchlights. electrified fences,multiple warning signs, night lights and a kill box. None other than Rudolf Hess who had the whole prison to himself. (That's anouther story)

Does your Avatar name refer to a Lambretta?

 

[makems]

My band Snoopy circa 1976 - we did over 1000 gigs around the North East club circuit in the 70s - average 3 gig/week, sometimes 8 if we got a Sunday lunchtime. I am top left on first photo, far right in 2nd playing a Gibson Les Paul Gold Top that would be worth a LOT of money if I still had it (and I mean A LOT)

 

[Li150]

Does your Avatar name refer to a Lambretta?

Yes, had the opportunity to buy a 1966 Lambretta Li150 when we moved to Spain, used it as a runabout for a couple of years then sold it. CBR600 was loads more fun but not to the second Mrs.H’s liking so had a Goldwing for a few years, no bike now but would still like something sporty but too old and slow now.

 

[maison]

I had an Li150 in the ‘60’s. Used it to travel to work and also from Cumbria to Edinburgh and back every month, in all weathers. Never let me down.

Had various bikes in almost 60 years of biking but now, as am older and a little bit wiser, (or more careful), I have a Royal Enfield Interceptor 650 and a 1980 Honda CB400 Superdream which I am gradually trying to get back to reliable running.
