Anyone know what Ian Thomas is pointing at on and finds amusing Stoney's neck ? .... Yeah I think he had those Kevlars stolen, along with his van? Which was a few days before setting off to Lonigo for the '99 GP Challenge. Thomas Armstrong helped out on that occasion with a van and new kevlars and went on to be his main sponsor for years. I think Ian Thomas was pointing at the fact Stoney had just got one of his ears pierced and was wearing a gold earring! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Speak for ya sel Marra I might not have much to cut these days but possessing my own "Wahl Clippers" what I do have gets a good clipping every three weeks... Old habits die hard and with our old RSM if he could pinch any ov it outside the beret he pulled it out... So no thank you to the "Scruffy Old Mop" / "Rasta" look and looking at Richards dad (Steve) who still has a full hair line although well cropped currently; Richard wont be going bald anytime soon... can you imagine that weave in white... could be the new Roy Wood or Santa Claus look... Know you don't like Christmas getting a mention too early gazzac and only 246 days to go so sorry for the Santa reference... But I suppose it will keep him warm on cold winter nights so I will give you that... Honestly just had another look at a current photo and I'm now not sure if its a "Rasta" or "Predator" look he is going for... Also how does all that fit under a helmet? Does he take the liner out ffs? Either way I still think it looks a clip... Sorry... Regards THJ 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

By the way I'm 63 and have enough hair left to worry about, so I'm lucky/unlucky in that department. Suppose in one way "I wish it could be Christmas every day ".
