Sorry Grimmy I've been struggling like mad with the connection for a couple of days now. The only times I got on to this page there was another tidy up going on!! I did try to post a vote but I'm afraid it wasn't having it (something to do with winds, barometric pressure and seismic activity we're told).
Yeah well done Johnny. Slightly disappointed that my Michelle Pfeiffer nom only got 2 points (Thanks Jemma :0)) She was a gorgeous gal back then and yo'ure a right bloody weird lot!
And the clock has struck. When the dust settles we can see that way out ahead ride the mighty Steppenwolf with Born to be Wild, a true bikers classic, nominated by Johnny Bee. Congratulations and a brand new set of leathers to you. If my addled brain does not deceive me, The Shangri-Las' Leader of the Pack was a close second, nominated by Sparky . Early front runner, Richard Thompson's 1952 Vincent Black Lightning, sadly ran out of gas. Joe Janiak and the Shovelheads got a bad case of road rash, shame that, as I quite liked the track and had it on my short list for votes; while the Maccabees got a puncture.
Thanks to all those who voted and to all those who laboured long and hard to prevent a six lane pile-up on the vote counting.
Horses and all (well, most) things horse-drawn coming up next.
Tidy :o) Motorhead & Salad lost points in that earlier tidy up

Flippin Eck!!! I just logged off for a bowl of soup with Mrs Grimmy ..... I think it was partly my fault for making a bit of a bish of my tidy - was being told my dinner's on the table in no uncertain terms - Thanks TF! You can have my lollypop too...
