Lovely words to go with a really lovely frame. From the photos I've seen, Cliff looked so much like my best mate from school, so kinda got a weird attachment to frames he built. Plus my ex was from down Croydon, near Sanderstead which is where I got my lo-pro from.
Feel free to post any more photos you have!

Oooh that's a nice chain.
Yeah Cliff was the mechanic at Pearson's when I was a Saturday boy there and uni holiday work. Always referred to him as my best old friend and he had always had fantastic stories about his interesting life. He made me a clear laquered track bike in 2002 (below) and a 953 frame for my mum when it had just came out. I miss him!
