Won't work - in three pages it'll divert to Winebagos>feral gerbils>pigmy ska music>Stukas>  .....  it always seems to end up in the same place ;D

Personally, I blame the legal community ;)

I got hit by a Winebago, once... on my way back from rescuing a truck load of gerbils (dish-of-the-day) from a pygmy convention near SKA-fell pike in the Lake District; damned stukas, sorry, I meant skuas, had been picking of the ones that got awy after the collision... carnage...  :o

Stukas above the Lake District a couple of years ago? So you've met Uwe already?

Well, I've met him and you don't miss a thing. He's a real German. Parading through his office, shouting things in German. Complaining his office was too small and he needed more Lebensraum for his basses.

... and I explained all about "annexation" to him, too... just smiles across the miles, so far with me... (though he has an invite to drop-in when in London once I've finished the Peter Cook rebuild, to offer a "professional opinion" on my "rare-bird"...)
... anyway, Chris, I'm sure you're being hard on the man, nothing a little "invasion" or two wouldn't cure... (did you get to polish his Jack-boots...? I did say polish, not Polish!)

also, BUMMER, Chris... if they have dropped the links, how are you gonna get that beautiful grand piano...  ;D

Maybe they can do a cross promotion with Trek bikes and have a Hendrix bicycle - at which point Uwe could confiscate them for the greater good ;)

Nah, just a company name - popular over here and I believe that they make Lance's bike as well.  I would have sad Scwhin but they are really no more than a name anymore :sad:
