Timing will depend how quickly we get home from Jamies football match, so wouldn't want to commit to a convoy at this time :(

That said, it's easy to find - up M5, left on old M4 (Chepstow), come off at Aust Services, right round the roundabout and take a left, signposted from there (IIRC)

Just the one now, but this one's mine! - and it will be finished eventually..... - but also temporary custodian of a project until it is finished enough for Angie to drive it


...oh, and a 2006 Freelander destined for the jungles of The Gambia - 4500 miles across roads, desert and tracks - what could possibly go wrong?

Geoff,

Can you please take the remainder of the stainless kits you have for me and give them to Paul.

Paul,

Hope you don't mind collecting them, I'll arrange to pop over and pick up the bonnet liners and the stainless stuff in the next couple of weeks.

Thanks

A.

Looks like I can make this meet :D
I'm Very interested to find out who you guys use for servicing/parts etc , and what mods you've done..

I've just come back from a scrappy near Bath which has a yellow m100 in for breaking so if anyone needs any bits its worth a look,, theres not much that isnt damaged, engine doesnt look too bad and the guy there said he would take £300 for it :wink:

Jamie is playing at home 2morow, so should be all done and dusted by 1200 - by the time we're ready to go, i'm expecting to be at the White Hart at about 1:00 pm.

feel free to have a drink while you wait for me (or just get stuck into the food and don't bother waiting if you want :( )

I feel sure that anything past October is classified as a special and rare sighting of the lesser spotted Watkins elan.

Rumour has it that it can be spotted nesting in the Wick area of Weston :-D

I am sure I saw Bill Oddie comenting on this on Autumn watch!

Cheers
