thanks for that Obrian I found these pics years ago after my dad passed away and always assumed it was a BSA

because the bikes he had when I was a kid were all BSA's, his twin brother had Norton's maybe it was one of his, they where identical twins but I know this is my Dad cos of the woodbine in his mouth on the first pic and his twin never smoked. if anyone could tell year of the bike would be nice to know also

It could be a Dominator Circa 1957/58

Any idea when the pics were taken

Another possibility could be the International model 30 from around the same time.

the inter was an overhead cam racer, doubt it would be handy to go shopping and commute to work, and they were single cylinder
