I saw the thread header and thought nah, this is some lfgss tomfoolery or an error. My heart sank hard when it became clear it whom it was. I'm struggling to accept this one.
My GT track gets a lot of love. Without Dwayne it would never have been:
It's ebay sales page was posted in porn and I thought, "fffuuuuuc I really want that"
and like a few others expressed my lust on the thread. Sale ended 2.00am Sunday, I told myself, "yup, I'll bid when when I get back home" as I headed out for some Saturday night wrongness. 11am Sunday and I'm woken up by the packaging from my apple crumble and custard and spilt can of Ting....I'd forgotten to bid.
About a fortnight later I get a call from Dwayne asking if was into that GT?
"Yes" I said slightly puzzled.
Turns out Dwayne won it but decided it was slightly too big and offered it to me. Funny thing is, if I had remembered to bid we'd have only jacked the price of the frame up for each other.
I was so happy he did this. He remembered.
What a dapper, well informed, softly spoken, tasteful gent. @Dwayne I'll miss you and your warm vibes.
