I have in the past posted pix of those at Ibsley. Some of that collection is now dispersed. But it may be worth looking back.

Re: Where are all the European events and 'enthusiasts'..??
I've put my first post up today - and I don't know the community well enough to pass comment on what's right and wrong about Seagull usage. Do know though that we have a great forum here - packed full of useful stuff.
I'm also quite proud that a British made product (long out of mainstream manufacture) is all over the world putting a smile on lots of folks faces
I like a lot of other similar products. On top - if you look at the huge surge in interest in such UK made products as Brompton bicycles (well off Chinese folks can't get them fast enough) then clearly we may be seeing the return of 'proper' engineered stuff again - rather than disposable tat
.
UK has historically done well at this caper - and a return would be great. In the words of the late, great Spike Milligan on receipt of his 'lifetime achievement award'; "Ladies and gentlemen - I'd just like to say - it's about bloody time"

"as the mention of a Marston on the forum leads to the threat of it being deleted."
This does not sound correct, why?
