Miles and I visited Morag last Sunday.  There had been some seepage of water, so we filled her up, then refitted the batteries.  We had more trouble remembering which switch operated the ignition than we did have starting her!  Two presses of the button and the old 680 roared into life.  We ran her at high revs for about 30 to 40 minutes, but could not take her out because somebody had left the forks off a tractor immediately in front of her.  Two very slight drips coming from the engine block but almost nothing.  All in all, she is looking good and ready to go for GDSF.

That looks about as bad as Morag did when she was recovered. I have a dvd somewhere of her being dragged out (sideways) from between two trees that had grown up around her.
