    When advised, do it straight away 😀 Just learnt that from the French TU forum when I got hammered by a member for not responding to his post within the hour. He went mad and deleted all his posts to me. Subsequently I told him that we were meeting up this Sunday for the 1st Regional TU meal in Toulouse – he has calmed a little, but wow, I was surprised by the reaction as to why I had not rushed home, opened the garage and measure the diameter of my main bearing within minutes of him asking the question 😆 😆 😆

    So, just took out the back window, which was not at all how it looked. It was tatty but not sure it was letting in water, just yet (although it has been dry for the past 45 years). It was quite tough and a couple of sharp blades later it is out, cleaned and the frame has been treated with antirust.
