It is the one thing I don't like about this bike. But the reality is my bladder fills at about the same rate, so emptying one tank and filling the other is a stop I am prepared to make, I just have to think about where.

BMWST had just posted on this thread at the time - was hoping to catch him. Not able to send PM's yet as too new to this forum.

Usually local councils, with input from a "hall committee". Unfortunately in smaller communities, with the age and upkeep of these halls there are some (I'd like to say many but don't have figures) that are being 'consolidated'. Particularly so since there aren't as many dances & socials etc held in them.

For instance, even in these last two tags the comment was made that the two halls weren't too far apart. Council beancounters often notice this too and decide that the better of the two halls should be kept and the other disposed of. The only thing that has saved some have been the fact that they are war memorials, but I doubt even that will hold much sway in time to come..
