Just re-read this thread. That was a hell of a weekend.

How are you dudes doing now anyway?

I have been absent from here too long (for my own good anyway). Where is Mulleady now? How is Karen? What is Sesame up to?

The Evil one is back! Woo Hoo! We missed you!

Have you seen the latest update of the Moulton Lava? She is doing great. https://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...hlight=Moulton

Best news is - she's going to be joined by another beautiful Moulton in the collection. Complete with international intrigue. Details this Saturday.

Oh dear. We were going to bring you a cake, with a file in it. Mulleady has started digging a tunnel.

Sheesh! That EvilV is a tease. Comes out of hiding after a year, gets us all excited that he's back and available as a target of our insults and abuse. Then he disappears back into his cave or attic, or wherever. The man is truly Evil...

Come on man! I'm only allowed out for short periods. I have to help them find the bodies of my victims, and while they are digging, I can sometime sneak a go on the Iphone of some passer by to post a quick message. I'm going directly to see the latest Moulton Lava post before they lock me up again. I must be quick, or they will find me at it and I will never be allowed out again. Mulleady's calf muscles would go down well in here. It's funny how arousing the thought has become over the months of lonely prison life. Come to me Mulleady my beauty..... come along now, you know you want to....

Hello old chap. I'm afraid I snapped the frame of the Merc. She died last year of overwork just a tad shy of four thousand miles. This is the disadvantage of alloy frames. She broke just where the seat tube entered the frame. No way back from there. I'm storing her remains in the shed for posterity. Hope you are well and Karen.
