The decision to replace my old stubby holder was not easy, replacing something that has come to be a part of you, so I soften the blow by purchasing two replacements 🤣
You can pick these up from Wide Open Clothing Co

Random pick number four by my youngest son, added another 99 stitches to my junior class speedway cross stitch.
I had the privilege of meeting this driver’s grandparents in a small town pub by chance, turns out they know my dad and mum from when they were on the state committee, dad as technical chairman and mum license secretary. Learned a lot about this young driver from them and the dedication and hard work that they put into racing.
