Hi Mate,
I am interested in your Y straps. How much is the postage and how do you wish to be paid? I have a Paypal account if that is easier. I am on the mainland UK for postage.

Regards

Alan (AKA Sir Ewok)

will send u email shortly, jonb

Thanks for the offer Ian but Jon has sent a PayPal request, which I have paid.

Jon I found your other Email in my Junk folder. I am glad that the strap came from a Royal Artillery man as my Dad was a Gunner in WW2 and the bike was bought with RA colours already on it. A fitting memorial for both mens service.

My Grandad did the Boer war, WW1 and the rematch as a Home Guard, sold his medals for beer money in the fifties.....AAAArgh!

My Dad had a lucky war compared to some, stationed in Suffolk (Framlingham) with a TA searchlight Battery and went across the channel through Holland and Germany behind the front line troops. His medals got lost somewhere, most were the usual ones but I would love to find his long service, good conduct medal....
