Both suit me but happy to go with Steve as that would make it 1st July and 1st Wednesday in month would be easy to remember. (My doctor might have said I have Alzheimer's but I can't really remember :lol: )

Wednesdays normally fine for me apart from the 1st.
That week I can do the Thursday, probably Monday and even Friday. We could always revert to first Wednesday of the month afterward?

:roll: I can't do the Monday that week, but I'm willing to stick my neck out and say I'm ok for the rest of the week :wink:
The Vic hasn't got the biggest carpark so Friday might prove stressful :P

Shall we say Thursday then... that's a 'can' for basher, rather than a 'probably' & a 'can' for me... don't really like early evening Fridays - too many people still trying to get home from work.

Went to get mine from its Mot and service tonight and he was just bleeding the air after doing the water pump and as he tightened the bleed screw the top came off so had to leave the car with him :evil: hope to fix it tomorrow. Left him undoing the light pod to get the remnants out.

All sorted apparently they are the same size as ones used on a London taxi :D which are less than £2 each.

Sounds a bit pessimistic, hope you're not wimping out, the date was chosen so you could be there.. :lol:

BBC detailed weather forecast for Gt Dunmow tomorrow says rain around lunchtime 12.00 - 14.00, cloudy & sun afternoon but another short shower around 18:00, and then clouds & sun till sunset.
Temp stays around 22C so any wet that gets in should dry out if you get the hood down and enjoy the sunshine..

See you tomorrow :cheers:
