while onb the island for the tt races decided to root out this post the lid was very unsecure but looked promising when opend as it was a mass of spiders webs,really gave an impression i was the first down for ages,inside wasnt very interesting really,but quite good condition and more or less as described by subrit, i think i was spoiled with my last one heres the pics,
