Raleigh moonshine

Hello!
My current bike is a Thorn Mercury Rohloff touring bike..but here's my Moonshine; I haven't measured the frame but it was the largest size made by Raleigh back in the day... (1990 it says on the original receipt). I'm 6' and the size was perfect for me. The bike's been retired for while now (like me) but purely out of nostalgia I've just had it serviced and checked out - it's sound throughout; all original except for tyres, saddle and brake levers - and of course the mudguards were my idea. If someone out there is desperate to obtain a Moonshine I might be interested in selling it.
