Yep - delighted - the frame was £92 incl. delivery - and as soon as I pulled it out of the box I could see it was a bit of a bargain!! (superlight, double butted, very thin delicate lugs and campag ends), so I was keen to get to the bottom of it and find out where it came from....
Apologies for the prolific posting - The scientist in me wanting to show the working & thought process!!
apolloxl - did you get a confirmation from Bob Jackson? judging by the top tube cable routing and rear brake bridge I'd assume yours was built as a road frame. If you're interested in period decals, H.Lloyd do the block lettering downtube stickers for £3.50
Cheers rodolfo - the clearance and seatstay tips were responsible for letting go of the Gazelle theory and going back to square one - major red herring that gazelle decal, and no idea why it was put there!!
