I wonder if it'll sneak past Mr. Hall this time? Actually Rick seem to have been a bit lax recently as some auctions have run to the end even when they've mentioned the R word. Maybe they've just been busy with that redesign of their bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That 'Orrible 'Ondo looks not bad, too (definitely not a Shafty, there were no bolt-necks & the sticker's the Hondo model number) and unless it's a solid colour around the edges, looks to be made of proper wood rather than ply.
