Parry : There's three things in this world that you need: Respect for all kinds of life, a nice bowel movement on a regular basis, and a navy blazer.

"journey" is very personal to me it took so much to make it from utter desperation to success making the mod from nothing

disaster I clipped the tube in the lathe the thread was knackered so the whole mod was written off I just lost the plot and beat it to death sat on the floor with a hundred million bits of stabwood around me and bawled my heart out it had all got too much, liz came and got me everything had got too much I didn't go back to the workshop for 3 days

when I went back I started again it was slow work I did a bit then sat there to get my self together then did a bit more

so after all the hope and despair this is what i came up with
