Is it a crotch?

Lots really. But on Friday my saddle bag and oar arrived. In my haste to fit the saddle bag to my Rapid fire I dropped it. A peg broke off my most pristine bike. I have a desk loaded with spares, but this one had nice stickers and not a scratch. It does now, battle hardened and sporting super glue. Gah.

Then there was the rarer paint scheme Recondo that fell and broke his crotch, Fireflys foot, Stalkers foot and my first quarrel that fell and I still can't find. It just seems all the rarer, nice or mint stuff breaks and the cannon fodder bounces.

I have firefly legs if it helps. And recondo crotch too i think.

Thanks mate, that's OK. This was the rarer bright green stripe version. I have the other two variants as well. Mind you, I don't have the UK variant IIRC. Should do something about that. :-)

This is the same as the peanut butter theory, I.e. if you drop your toast after you have applied the peanut butter it always lands buttered side down on the carpet.

Are these medical terms Matt? Sounds quite serious, I hope you get better soon.

Collector medic terms, don the red cross, apply the super glue and hope they make it. :D

Everythings cleared up now thanks. Just a touch of the Mutons helmet left.
