Thank you, took a bit of work!

New decals accept the top tube 'Lava Done' front stem decal and headtube decal, Gil came good again

She'll be going to live at The in laws in The Forest of Dean ultimately so I don't have to drag one there every time.

Finally a day (well afternoon as I finished at 2 o'clock this morning) off to get out for the first ride. Only a casual jaunt to the coast but I can tell she's a great bike straight away
