I doubt it because if he was,hopefully he would have collected and paid for the two new triangle banners that I decorated for him last September!

why would he get new banners? has he changed the XMEN theme?

Remember him saying at I think Camden show last year that he was going to get some new banners, same art-work I'm pretty sure. Think some of the paint was peeling on the older ones?

The theme of the new banners is still X-Men/super hero type stuff which is in keeping with the rest of the artwork that I did on the ride.
The old banners that I painted unfortunately kept getting packed away without being dried properly if it had rained which led to them going mouldy,the mould then starts to eat into the paint and cause it to flake/peel off.I had the original banners back in last year and patched them up like new,pain in the arse job with the tautflex paint.Dean then decided on a new pair which as I said, I have had since last September,obviously the Zipper takes a back seat now.

Found this article for the Gympie show earlier this year,has a pic of Dean in front of the wheel and a short interview.
