I don't know how long these bolts have been supplied by others - it could be for a number of years - and so might be the cause of these now so-common fabric-joint failures, which is why I wanted to draw attention! Probably nothing wrong at all with the joint itself just the fixings!
When my car is returned to the road, it will get used (as I am using the Ruby), so it will get a good real-life testing!
