Vernon my man,

From many years ago and the trike days and now I see this beautiful baby that you have produced I can only say WOW and I bow my head down in honour.

It seems like just a few years ago that Geoff(Lightflight) and I were going to watch Troy box in his matches. Time marches on but Vernon your aerie looks superb! (^^) (^^) (^^)
