some more from my collection from the pre windows days:

a previously unused olympus OM40, a well battered eddy merckx 7 eleven corsa extra, a collection of scud, ercycling mags from the 80s, a pair of victorian ships' lamps, a horror game from the 70s, a cuddly toy, a fondue set, a tea's-made . .. .

i'm guessing that most of us are aged between 40 and 55?!

apologies to lord lichfield for my varying degree of success on the photographic front - i'm convinced that no matter what kind of camera i use, my efforts with the lens are entirely variable and predictably hit and miss. either i've got a lot of static around me or my hands tremble like a jaykie with a day off the sauce.

i think i need to buy one of these . .

haha I've got a Merckx Corsa Extra as well, 1992 iirc , it's not my daily ( I have a Trek 5900 - only 9 years old - for that ) !!
I sold off all my French cycling mags a few years ago , including all the Tour editions of several magazines from 1961 until mid 1990s

Oakley Pilots as well
