Mine is an SP one.

Ohhh Jamie you cam locking kit snob !

LOL, I have to keep reminding myself what make it is, seeing as I never see it  :-?

Still, at least members here are getting good use of it

Cam belt party ........ sounds good, but needs to be in the next 7K miles for me.    
I'm pretty sh1te with the tools, but always willing to learn .... and eat burgers.
Only problem is if it is the weekend of 16/17 June, thats a definate no - no for me.
Not sure about letting SWMBO on princess street for some retail therapy either ....... I maybe cheaper taking the motor to the stealers for a cambelt change.      
At this point count me in.

What's the latest Dates for Jockular Omegas III meet

[hotel21]

No dates suggested yet.  I intend to go to the 'bus museum this weekend and see what I can manage to blag/arrange as regards garage space.

Might be worth trying to set something up in conjunction with some KH events, since its only a couple of miles up the road....

kk yeah this could be a shout, hopefully it's not the day after a proper piss-up for me so I'll be sober to drive

**** Update ****

I finally managed to track someone down who looks after the bookings etc for the Scottish Vintage Bus Museum at Lathalmond.  It is only a couple of miles from Kelty junction of the M90 motorway.  A number of other vehicle enthousiast groups use the site on various weekends for meetings as well.    

We can camp onsite for a minimal cost (£1 per head per night) and there is a small function hall we could use on the saturday night, if we wish, for an equally minimal cost (£1.50 per head).  A toilet block (only) is a short walk from the camping area.  No showers.

I am told that they will try to accomodate hanger space for work to be done on cars but, unfortunately, cannot be guaranteed.  Ample hard standing is available though to work on the cars and we could use gazebo type afairs if its wet.  Own tools and kit would be needed.

Knockhill Racing Circuit is only 4 miles away and there are various events ongoing.  

Museum dates that are available are:

11th to 13th May (same weekend as The Scottish Motorshow Live at Knockhill)
1st - 3rd June (June Bikefair, bike racing at Knockhill on the Sunday)
6th - 7th July (nowt showing for KH)
13th - 15th July (Scottish Championship bike racing at KH)


I'm away for both July dates and if we want to use the first date (11th to 13th May) then we need to get going....

I'll put up a poll for dates once I work out how to do it!

[Markie]

may be a dodgy one for an overnighter for me.....so i will probably turn up and go home same day  :-/

May one is out for me as are both July dates....

On the plus ive got just about every tool available right through to 2 sealey engine hoists if anyone is feeling really adventerous  

[RossPhim]

Most weekends aren't a problem for me, although I havnae checked with the boss on that.    
Once we get a fixed date then I'll let you know for sure.    
Cheers Hotel21!
As for tools, I have varying weights of hammer ....... can I bring em?
