No apologies necessary Mike, crisp, clear and excellent photos. Beauty is
worth waiting for from this dial-up!! Love the Magister with the polished
cowl, as well as the Tipsy, Martlett, Tutor, Hind...well all the rarely seen types for us here in the states! Thank-you Mike!

Nice stuff Mike. Just imagine what you might have got if you had been on time!

Would that be Polish Standard Time or Polish Savings Time. Actually, Polish Shopping Time sounds more likely.

Looks like everyone had a good time. Wish I had been there
