    :) Got most of the stickers on and I’m well pleased with how it’s turned out so far :grinning:
    Hopefully the Union Jack stickers I’m waiting for will be here tomorrow :confused:
    The three large Triumph stickers are on :)
    Two side ones went on no bother but the smaller rear one was being a problem again :mad: so rather than peeling the top layer off and ripping the paint again I’ve left it on and edged it with reflecting tape:) not exactly what I wanted but it doesn’t look too bad and you have to have red reflecting at the back anyway so job done :cool:
    Taking the lid into work tomorrow to prep it ready for paint :)
    If all goes to plan hopefully put some pictures up Tuesday or Wednesday :p
    If I balls it up again I won’t :mad:
    Gonna use it Friday for into the valley no matter what happens :p

    Got the lid back home tonight :)
    And what a feckin pain that thing was to refit :mad: only two hinges but getting them lined up so it would close and lock :(
    Should of took pictures before I removed the locks because they basically have to be stripped apart to get them off and I couldn’t remember how to reassemble them :worried:
    Still no stickers :mad: but it’s now usable again :p:cool:

    It's a work of art done by an Artist Dilli, very well done. I bet it looks great behind your bike.

    It looks much less like a portaloo than when you started ... that's as near to a compliment as you're gonna get, so bask in the glory, Dilli Dilli! :grinning::grinning::grinning:
    Well done Dilli! Enjoy your weekend!
