I've given myself a project to scan in old photos of my grandparents and parents. Came across these photos of my parents and their 1952 Arial 500. Turns out it is still registered with the DVLA so have put out a call via Twitter to see if the current owner can be located. The Arial owners club doesn't have the reg number on their database. Not sure about the two Scottie dogs perched on the saddle

Finally the skies are blue but the clouds are blowing around so who knows what'll unfold weatherwise, so maybe a short ride out on a Ducati, i'd have a central heating 28mm pipework repair task job booked for today but that can wait for another day.
Just dropped my son off at school for his A-level results. Fortunately for him it's a matter of how well he did not whether he passed. Best wishes to all whose kids that might be having a difficult day today

I've been poring over my late mum's photo albums this week. As you say real, worn bits of paper mean so much more than a modern, digital image - they seem to carry their history as they age. Here's my grandpa in S.America in the early 20s...
Thanks Viv. Smarty-pants got 3 A* and 1 A - he's quite pleased Hopefully he'll get a decent job after Uni to keep me alive!
