Beautiful bicycle...

Eeeek!! Here it is!! My finished refurbished Raleigh Sports Tourist circa 1940s/50s.
Didn't I tell you it would re-feature sometime soon?!
Following a hard bootcamp session I headed out to Chorlton to collect it.
Alex took my car with the girls into town & then did shopping.
I was so pleased to see the finished result. The guy, also called Alex said he was really pleased with how it had turned out & it was much better than he'd thought. It's so shiny & lovely, I'm really glad that I but the bullet & got it sorted & done.
Aswell as scrubbing, repairing, oiling, tuning & polishing, he got me a bell, new white handheld grips & some Raleigh decals - as close as he said, to the originals the said the bike would have had.
When I got home, ferguson & I called out to Laura & Jack's - Leo's parents in Grotton. They were having a little party for Louie, their little one year old.
It was a lovely sunny day & Ferguson happily played with his other friends that were also there, Oliver & Ewan.
A truncated BBQ (due to the rain...) followed when we got back with chicken kebabs & salmon being eaten in the kitchen.
Alex & I watched Saving Mr Banks aswell. Not quite what I imagined but enjoyable nonetheless.
