Yesterday I recovered a bike from above, Wendens Ambo, Essex, for a customer as the company went into liquidation last month.

There were approximately 40 bikes there and the landlord wants them gone of course but is struggling.

If anyone knows someone who's bike is there let them know please or otherwise they may loose them!

Cheers Bill,

Lucky for him the chap next door , Who had some of the work subbed out to him,

It is a very precarious situation, back in my working days as a locksmith my services were used by county court bailiffs to repossess property and properties, I had nothing to do with that actual process, my only involvement was to gain access and change locks, but many a time I saw businesses stripped bare of goods with complete disregard as to who had good title. One notable job was a gunsmith in Wooburn Green, I think most of the very expensive guns were there for sale on a commission basis or there for servicing, the onus was then on the gun owners to stake their claim, there were a few very unhappy people amongst the local gun fraternity.

I heard a story years ago of a fellow with some irreplaceable car or bike parts at the plater. The place burnt and he was lucky enough to retrieve most of his parts from the ashes.

Tales such as this have happened before haven't they?

I remember one paint sprayer locally who passed away, and the widow of the person then started selling items that weren't even his!

I’m going up on Tuesday to collect my moped which he was supposed to be restoring. Lost quite a few thousand to that company but pleased to be able to collect my bike as I thought I’d lost it when they went into liquidation
