After we'd been shopping I took her out into the countryside - but it was cold, so-oooo cold! My hands soon began to freeze and the petrol tank felt like ice. In fact there were soon two Little Willie's on the road, at least it felt like it - or it would have done if I could have felt anything! I stopped for a warm-up and took this picture (left), and as I was doing so a car came past, slowed, and the driver gave me a wave of approval. Or did he mean 'get that thing off the road'? Anyhow, it was a lovely ride even though it was cold. Roll on springtime!
It was really quite frosty first thing this morning. I bunged a load of bed-clothes in the washing machine, then pegged them out on the line, where they quickly began to go rigid! As it was such a lovely bright morning I decided to go shopping on my Bantam and unlocked the workshop to get out Little Willie. Switched on the petrol, gave her a quick tickle, and a kick later she fired up! Pop-pop-popper-pop!

Boy AlbieI've been the proud owner of a 1965 BSA Bantam D7 since 1991, affectionately known as Little Willie (Wilhelmina) and love to take her out for a ride so that others can see her. Archives
