Hi Simon, I owned a 2 pipe square 4 back in 1966 , had a blown headgasket and I paid £15 for it. managed to do the gasket but on the way found out why the PO had wanted shut fast ,he'd broken of 2 of those strange shaped head bolts . it was my first attempt at drilling down a bolt and using an easyout to get the bolts out which I did and got the new bolts and gaskets from Bob Sargents in Liverpool off the shelf! Being a ignorant young twit I got shut soon after fo ranother A10, cheers Bob

Now I'm puzzled. You are right, but how did you know about the mural? That picture was taken earlier this year for my series of articles in RealClassic. The new mural was painted this summer.

The Funky Mac is a great place to go for bacon rolls and flapjack. It seems to attract bike clubs - the Panther Club and the VMCC have both had ride-outs there recently, there is a handy cliff top car park above it.

You were kind enough to park next to a sign that said "Sheringham Art and Sculpture Trail". It wasn't much work from there. "Funky Mackerel" would have done it, as well.

I notice they also painted the Funky Mac, taking away some of its soul.

I think whoever make Muskies outfit forgot the B and A and didnt have quite the right typefont.

Hmmm? How to put this?

It takes them to wear this and you have proven you have them.
