Just refurbishing my latest (1963) bike.
Not being slavishly authentic, it's now got alloy rims.
Realised I'm using, Vim, Brillo Pads, Brasso and Fairy Liquid. (I suspect some of those are pre-60s.)
And elbow grease of course.

I was using some brasso on our plastic lectern at work and thought. I wonder if I can remember what it smells like, kind of in that sense memory way, was expecting some sort of old school polishy smell.
Whoo-ee, it's bloody strong, couldn't smell for about an hour afterwards.
Have you got the 'light programme' playing in the background?

"Have you got the 'light programme' playing in the background?"
Well it's a bit light, but is coming through my iPhone...
That's lighter than any 60s radios!

Can you get some creamola foam too?
oooh apparently it has been remade as Creamola Fizz...

I used to have '70s rule for music in my VW.
I have a couple of 8 track machines but I actually used a CD multi changer in the trunk.
