Surely, Crazydad there must be a German anti-viral medicament which would clear up that Man-Flu 'vizz roosless effishanzee'  ;D

Very good Debs,  :y ;D ;D There are a few medicines on the German Market that could help me along, but they are not as efficient as the stuff from Wales ::) ::)

Yes over 30 Omega's at 14.30, all types of work from 8 or so cambelts as well as cam cover gaskets, oil changes, HBV's, autobox fluid change, brake overhauls, door check straps etc.  Pleased to have visited, excellent venue (8 cars under cover a time) great people, weather kept dry. It would be interesting to see a full list of members, also the work done if only to see the equivalent Vauxhall cost !
many thanks  :y :y :y
