I'm looking at having the forum automatically display your location from you profile against each post.

It requires modification of the code, so needs to be test on our test setup first, so may take a few days...

Wirral Merseyside - thats the bit they missed on this forum Location - good idea before you offer help to someone to have a clue where they live!

About as far north as you can get. Well nearly. 30 miles east of Inverness.
Chance of pooling resources ....... no chance. :'(

Nearest I know of is Markiec, and he's a couple of hours south of me.

Luckily my brother-in-law is avery good mechanic, which keeps me out of the Vx Dealer workshops.[smiley=thumbsup.gif]

Newmills,
Dunfermline,
Fife,
Scotland.

I do regular trips to predominantly Nottingham but other places, so I can transport things for people.

I'll post up when I'm travelling and you can take advantage.

I live in the back end of nowhere - a small market town called Brackley on the Oxon/Bucks/Northants border, about 7 miles from Silverstone.

I work in roundabout city, known to many as Milton Keynes.  Of course, I use the work 'work' in the loose sense, just don't tell the boss ;)

You familiar with the Bartholomew Arms 'Boy'?

Odd, I refer to our 2 year old as 'Boy'! Seems strange calling someone else it!!  ::)
