So lets fix a date of 30th September.

I can be there from 08:00 (but don't want too) so there are no jobs that can't be done in one full day.

I might pop down with the camera and take some pics. I've still not done the exhaust bolt but I now have a stainless flange which I'm contemplating attaching (via flexi pipe) to my full custom exhaust and having a downpipe back system.
I now have a new battery and my wipers are staying connected so no "parking under a motorway bridge until the rain stops " situation.

For the record, Craig is a top bloke if anyone needs to know.

If anyone has a pressurized brake bleeder i'd be grateful if you could bring it, big whites brake master has arrived and hopefully i'll have brakes working on her (for the first time in a year).

I'll be going 'The MEAT WAGON' by me, not paying TESCO prices.

Only poofs use George Forman Grilles, real men cook in LARD ! :P

Now now lets not go mad lol, full english requires tables, chairs, plates and cutlery, a sausage bap take one hand. :lol:

DIY vacuum bleeder may be a better option. You can usually cobble one together with bits left leying around the garage/kitchen.
