    I looks like a Diana 27 first pattern, 1920s. Value would depend on how well it cleans up, whether pitting etc. That cracked stock won't help either. Maybe £30-£50 as is?

    In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.

    So nice to see you back on here again Adam ... Oh, hang on, Adam is Michelle ... How many times are you two going to give us mods a metaphorical shaft with a traffic cone via a forty yard dry run-up ???

    Off to look after my kids now, so will p-m you both if I can later tonight, or if I can't get back on (all three of my kids are sick at the moment so may not be able), I will ask Baz to deal ... And I do note your edit as above, but this quote was lifted from this afternoon's archive, so is how the original thread read, and how I believe you would've let it run, had you not realised the name and log-in didn't match-up ...

    A genuine mistake Gareth, we have one PC & are both logged on regularly... I realised what I'd done straight away, hence the edit.

    Lots of genuine mistakes lately, but ok . Back to bucket duties for me now then (which is why I may be a little fractious today), as both my daughter and youngest son are busy vomming for Britain (poor little life wreckers ). Speak on the 'morrow: G.
