STEVE FLETCHER IN GREAT HARLEY DAVIDSON SENSATION
By our own Two Wheeled correspondent
This summer saw the 60th birthday of popular 2MA member, George Annable, and to celebrate the event, he invited some oppos to join him searching for cheap beer in Prague, Czech Republic.
The ensemble consisted of two groups. George, Happy Day, Ganges Dave, Harry Redden, Jan Leeming, "Keys" Keyworth, Steve Fletcher, Andy Rafferty and Ed, (the photographer) from the North, and Ken Hinchliffe, Sharkey Ward, Angry Anderson and Stevie Swaine, from the South.
The Southern group got off to a flyer by arriving in Prague early after a pre-flight Bar-B-Q and Bed and Breakfast at Hotel Hinchliffe. They immediately commandeered a taxi to take them to their hotel, only to find that Ken was the only one to bring Czech Crowns, whilst the ill-informed brought Euros!
First to the hotel gets the choice of rooms, whilst the later arriving northern group had to make do with what was left. This included trying to avoid sharing with Henry the snoring Hippo (name withheld by request!).
So off the motley band set on a cultural tour of the city of many bars, which also involved a little shopping on the way.
Steve Fletcher, the Master Chef and an owner of a Harley Davidson motorbike splashed out circa £50 on a genuine Harley Davidson T-shirt which came with a free HD carrier bag too! He was over the moon! Unfortunately, Fletch committed the cardinal sin of leaving his t-shirt bag sculling, much to the delight of his oppos who took the opportunity to try on Fletch's pride and joy, whilst substituting the contents of said carrier bag with a really grotty t-shirt! The plan worked well as a montage of photographs will confirm -
