You guys are too kind. I've said to Noel (Spins) that I will endeavour to get to North Drinks over the next month, looking forward to seeing you all again!

I did. I got a few metres of leftover tweed from work.

Made a pattern for the frame, cut that out from the fabric and sewed that up.

Cut out strips, backed with double sided tape to wrap round stays, forks and bars.

I've left the saddle and bars for the moment as they look pretty good, though the rest is stripped back.

The chap riding it bought the bike of the 'bay for about 400. It was his idea to purchase it, and he says it works a treat for deliveries in Mayfair etc. He tries to minimise Canary Wharf deliveries. I was chatting to him and he says their customers love it when they see it.

Now all I need to do is work out if Huntsman will do an lfgss discount. hopefully in the region of 90%.
