I'll be there IN AN ELAN(hopefully).....

I will be bringing the following items with me:-

1) Brake sliders for Joao
2) CAS cover for John
3) More red carpet bits which I've found for Martin & Pete to fight over

possibly 4) Bits for the rear end of Neils car (if he is likely to attend)

Is anyone else expecting/hoping/wanting anything else? Have I forgotten anything I've offered to anyone?
Dave

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?

I know you probably mean the whole lot but just to be sure don't forget the slider rubber seals, there shall be a pint waiting for you.

I've got sliders, seals, rubber boots and the metal covers for the allen - headed bolts (and a spare sachet of the correct grease).... all in a bag, ready for the trip :D

If anyone's got a spare 12mm Dowty washer, I may come along with Pete's lineariser....

'fraid not, since the MoD have screwed up my annual Mediterranean expedition I am in Cornwall where I have swapped blood sucking mozzies for locals extracting their maximum share of my pension!

No pictures from me (although my camera was in my pocket :oops: ) but it looked black by the time we got to the pub. Oh, and you missed the classic Two Ronnies episode of John mistaking João's twin brother for João. :lol:
