I have started a new thread to reignite the interest. I have spoken to the chap who has invited me down next week to have a look. It would be best if I went with a few dates in mind so please indicate which dates you can make.
Remember there will be house rules and I will need everybodies name and address before hand otherwise you will not be allowed entry. This is my boss' boss doing a favour for me so I may ask for a contribution towards a bottle of champers as a thank you to him, should be no more than a couple of quid per person.
I also suggest we go to a local curry house afterwards. I know a few but new suggestions are always welcome!

Poll added :y

Could be up for that to meet a few peeps, not sure how far away it is for me and also depends on times and so on

Not going to name names in public, but there is one place (in the Shot) where you can behave pretty much the way you could 25 years ago.
This means you can be slightly "risque" and no-one gets worried.
This means you can smoke inside and no-one gets worried.
This means you can do pretty much anything, PROVIDING you aren't pissing on someone else's camp fire...and it will be considered acceptable.
Now I don't know about anyone else, but that sounds like a f**king nice chilled out night to me.

Well done Guffer :y
I have voted for any Saturday I think ;D

I am meeting him today to discuss dates.
Once you know where it will be you will understand why it has been so difficult to organise. He could destroy my career in a heartbeat so forgive me for not being pushy with him.
Good things come to those who wait :y

I think when it comes to TB the Rules of Engagement state "Weapons Free" ::)

Right! We're on!
I am going to go for the most popular which was Sat 14th November. I have spoken to the chap and he first showed me a spot which was full of bikes and not very suitable, 2 cars max at a time under cover. At the other end of camp there is a run-down but usable building with room for a dozen vehicles under cover. There is no electricity or lighting but its a long building with large doors all along one side. I can get some portable lights that would light up inside quite nicely and it will need a little prep in the form of sweeping and clearing of a few shrubs.
To the front is plenty of space for another dozen vehicles and we are free to use BBQs etc, although we are able to the on-site restaurant which will cost a couple of quid for a full slap-up brunch!
So if you want to attend PM with your full name and address and I will PM you closer to the time with directions and instructions. You will need photo ID to get in and it would help if you have not been in trouble with the police recently, if you let me know if you have and I will be able to assess it beforehand.
We will need your own tools and some portable lighting would be necessary for working underneath as I am not sure how strong the lighting I will be bringing is.
I just hope one of the local admins could come down with a Tech2. I have a locking kit, axel stands, jacks and various tools. I am competant with changing timing belts, oil coolers, wishbones, thermostats, drop links, disks and pads. When you PM if you could state what tools and skills you will be bringing and I will add to the thread.
I must add also I will be asking for a couple of quid donation from everyone on the day to buy the boss' boss a bottle champers to say thank you. Just so there are no surprises.
As for numbers I reckon we could easily accomodate for 2 dozen vehicles :y
And Loo-Knee, Ye of little faith 8-)

wahay i can play. :-)
I have some flourescent lights with a cable and 3 pin plug on the end, they plug straight in the wall sockets in the garage. So should be fine with Kevins generator? If i can transport them in the car without braking the tubes? And a basic lead light?
3 ton jack and stands. Air tools and compressor if needed but its not beefy enough for wheel nuts so probably not worth it.
And of course the obligatory halfords pro took kit.
Depends what jobs we are doing i guess. If its all cam belts then wont need all the heavy stuff obviously....?
-
Yep, fluorescent lighting's good. Not too power hungry.
Never tried running a compressor from the gennie. There's something to try at the weekend. I suspect that'd make it grunt a bit. ;D

I'm guessing my 1kw spotlights are no good - they alone will make Kevein Wood's genny chug

got a 50meter extension lead, if there is a socket in range? Near buy building maybe?

So, who actually needs something fixing or servicing? Of those signed up so far, i cant see an awfull lot of work needs doing?
Who needs a cam belt? Should we have a list of jobs?
-
id like to come down as i need a door soleniod fixing but not sure on work situation till later in week and i need to get door soliniod unless some like darth has got one lying around ? Also has anyone got a mig welder as me door strap on drivers side has broken away from chassis :-[ :-[

If anyone wants any parts bringing down let me know :y
Depending on when a few of my own parts are delivered I may have a couple of jobs myself ::)

Can people start adding next their names which jobs they need doing, that way we can get an idea as to how much work is to be done. At the moment I get the feeling it's not a lot......

Nothing specific 'cause it's a Traktor but would appreciate it being checked over on KW's Tech 2 and the steering/wheel bearings etc given a look as preventative measures

I have the following that needs to be looked at:
- snapped manifold studs - 2 i think (not sure if the head would have to come off)
- very slight coolant leak - not sure hbv or loose pipe
- droplinks checked
I'm just after a diagnosis first and then hopefully i'll know for sure what actually needs to be done. :y
-
Well, if everyone's bored with no jobs to do... ;)
Change driver's side central locking motor and fit new speaker.
Investigate creaky rear suspension bushes.
Change spark plugs.
I'm sure I can think of some more... ;)
EDIT: Oh, yes. Investigate why my self levelling HIDs occasionally go into "blind everyone" mode.
Kevin
-
Oh, and I might try welding with that gennie if I get a chance in the week. I suspect it'll be a dead loss, and my welding's bad enough with a decent power source. ::)

re welding the door check strap. Does the vx field repair kit cover all eventualitys? I thought it could be fixed with bolts and large washers? Depends how far gone the metal is i suppose?

Would be interesting to poke about behind your triangular plate, see the orientation and if mv6 bushes are the same as other models. I suppose they will be?

I'm up for the curry, by the way. I will enquire as to whether Mrs. KW would like to drive me home pi$$ed join us too. :y

Ah, first thought, not a curry house. More of a Tai restaurant. Food tends to be more chilie based. Where as curry is more, er, curry based. If you see what i mean?
But on the other hand, would give a wide range of tastes, as it leans towards chinese. Lemon chicken etc are listed.
Would personally prefer a full on curry house, but i'm sure the menu will cover all tastes at so.Asia.
I know thera are some tai green curry addicts on here. :-)

Yeap Curry sounds good to me too love Thai Curry so I will go with the flow :y
I assume this is happening after the work has been ;) :)
-
dribbling already. Love a curry me. :-) not too hot mind, and a good chutney tray with a pint and popadoms, my favourite. Cant wait. :-) :-) :-)

Yeah, yeah, :-) i'm not playing that game. ;D
I like to enjoy my food, and cant afford a week off work afterwards or burnt holes in the front of my shirt where its been sat in the laundry bin for couplme of days.
Jalfrazy is as hot as i like it. Any hotter and my tongue swells up. Madras is esp bad for some reason, i actually quite like the flavour. Its just doesnt like me.
Lime pickle on the chutney tray is fine. Weird.

There's a Travelodge in Camberley "from £50" though. :(
Mrs. KW is now talking about going to a reunion in Wellingborough so have been considering it myself. :-/

If you are willing to kip in sleeping bags there is plenty of space at Hotel Guffer, Loo Knee got in there first with the double bed :y

Thanks for the offer :y I will certainly lob a doss bag in the car just in case. There are plenty of beds not too far away at Hotel Kevin Wood too but I suspect finding someone sober enough to get us there might be an issue. :: (unless Mrs. KW is around - she's currently undecided ::) )

[size=18]URGENT UPDATE!
[/size]
I have just been called by the manager of the palce where the meet is supposed to take place. Apparently there is a significant asbestos risk in that building! :o
I's not just in the ceiling, small parts have fallen off the roof onto the ground. Even if we use masks there will still be a lot caught up in your clothes etc.
As the weather is due to be shitty use of the compound is not feasible until the summer. I am very sorry to everyone as I wasnt aware of this problem and I dont want people getting ill, asbestosis is not a nice thing to have.
Apologies to all who were coming down. I am absolutely gutted. :'( :'(
We can use the compound when the weather gets better but until then.....
-
That is a real gutter especially with all the hard work that you have put in.
Does anyone know of a suitable place nearby that would enable the meet to still take place?
-
Really sorry to hear this. :( Still, best to be on the safe side. I knew someone who succumbed to asbestos. It's not to be messed with.
My first thoughts were also whether we could find an alternative - even if we can't find a venue to work on cars perhaps we could keep our appointment with the curry house?
Kevin

People are welcome to come to my house in Maidenhead. Only thing is my driveway is narrow and you could only get 3 cars max on there.
-
Sorry to here this Guffer mate, I was looking forward to this too but like Kevin has said better to be safe than sorry :)
Better go and empty Vader now :D

Well, I'll keep you company. :y
Kevin

Totally the right thing to do Guffer. Cant mess with that stuff.
Certainly up for the curry Kev. :-) cant see any reason to cancel that. Oh no!
-
So, thats 3/4 for the table... anymore?

Thats a nice thought Radar. But i think the weather this weekend will require some cover. Its lashing down with added wind from the south ..... And i dont mean from the curry either. ;D
-
Bit far to just nip down for evening, so count me out this time :'(
Good to knwo there is still a possibility of doing this meet in better/warmer/dryer weather :y

The weather is dodgy at present isn't it!
I've told SWMBO and looks like i'm going to take the family out now so i'm afraid i can't make the curry house.
-
Just to add... For anyone who wanted a Tech 2 session tomorrow - if you can make it over to Four Marks (and I don't get blown away up here overnight!) I'd be happy to oblige. Just drop me a PM.

LOL, bright sunshine in deepest Brackley. Might go and chance the oil which is about 1k overdue :o
-
Sunny here too >:(
-
Sunny, hail, torrential rain and blowing a gale here in Suffolk!
Gutted this fell through Guffer but there'll be another chance and hopefully I'll be able to make it too :y :y :y
-
Dull and drizzly here, and you can barely stand up in the wind. A steady 40 knots. :o
I'm off to Lasham to see if the glider trailer is still on the same side of the airfield and the right way up.
What time's the curry booked for, Guffer?
Kevin
-
yeah whens curry? When when when? :-)
-
Oh, It'll just be me for a curry btw. Mrs. KW has other plans.
Kevin
-
So I take it just 3 for curry then?
Edit: Table booked for 8pm :y
