No I didn't hang around long enough to see the owner, as I was out for a walk with my parents and they couldn't quite work out why I was getting so excited!

Thanks for the compliment.

Gave Bjorn a good clean and polish last weekend before the 300 meeting, and took the opportunity of having a little photoshoot:

It looks fantastic :-) I'm now fully motivated to give my DLS a polish too, amazing what a difference it makes!
