I find myself equipped with a rubber mallet I never had before....

Left Behind, to my knowledge..

 Large Griddle plate (don;t worry about trying to clean too much Jaime, I'll deal with it )
Mikey's favourite Hot pepper sauce, organic Honey and Dijon mustard and a few other similar odds and sods.
a number of BBQ implements, Sausage turning trays, fish turners and such like
small Chefs preparation knife.
Clips for Meega's rain scuttle
med-large anti-bac Chopping board
Spare V6 Radiator.


and apparently My legs....   coz these ones i have feel like they belong to someone else....

 :o


It might be convenient for me to pop by on either Monday , Wedneday or Thursday day time this coming week....   in Pugsey.... or any evening barring wednesday

I haven't really had a good search yet, but I appear to have gained a couple of bits - I'll post up some photos later ready for claiming ;)

Myself, I appear to have lost E11/E12/E20 3/8" drive torx sockets and a 10mm/12mm rachet spanner, all 'Halfords' - has any one gained these......


Thats not good :( sure they will turn up ;)

I'm sure that they are either on the garage floor - I ain't even thought about tidying the garage up yet - or through in someone's toolbox mistakeningly.  I hope they haven't been left in engines  :o

Oh.... and the memory issue is resolved...

according to the schedule, that AMAZING cake (someone post a picture, Mine's too shaky) was delivered by Mambafia (andy?)

Damn but it was a brilliant move.... a specialised , personalised,  "Happy Cambelt party" cake from Asda....

Top marks for initiative and humour.

Max - yep your radiator is in TheBoy's garage, we saw it there today ... top BBQ skills too  :y

thanks to everyone who turned up, it was a good day all in all and funny watching James heading for the kitchen on his sea legs  ;)

Nice to put faces to names, roll on the next one  :)

I'd like to echo the thanks to all involved, especially TheBoy for letting us trash his house and MaxV6 for the excellent food.

It was really good to meet you all although it'll take a few more rounds before I can reliably put names to all the faces, I'm sure.

The wife's not talking to me either after I rolled in at 2AM. :o

small Chefs preparation knife

So, about a 13" blade, then? ;-)

Sorry I left you at the A34, MaxV6. I hit a load of standing water on the slip road prompting a traction control light at 70, then hit a red light behind you. I wasn't sure of the way from then on and by the way you were going I assumed you weren't in trouble so I got back on the A34.

Thanks again to all and looking forward to the next time.

Yes I also have to put my tuppence worth in and Thank Jaime for putting me and my daughter up last night, TOP MAN :y....Elite Pete for sorting out my dash (almost), but now I know how to do that job, Thanks to Pete :y. And a big Thank you to Max for the BBQ yesterday, and the spare dash today, which I have just completed trashing to bits (only joking), Oh and for lending me the BRATZ DVD, would've preferred the Fimbles though ;D. Thanks to Dan (sounds2k) for the malt whisky last night/this morning :o....Thanks to Doug (Timbuk) for the Indian take away burgers this last night/this morning :y ;D........

Great day good to put faces to names and just to add what a great bunch of guys for what they all done yesterday for all the other Forum members yesterday TOP MEN :y

And last but not least I have now managed to remove the dials succesfully from the dash, put the chrome surrounds in, and just need to put the white dials into my own dash, swap over the dash housing unit from Max's to mine. Have took some pics of how to do, will post a thread with pics later. :y

I've put up a post in the meetings forum if you're interested.

Keep us posted on your coolant leak.  I might be able to do something this week (during the day) if you get stuck.

Many thanks for the Escort Kev...   I meant to dig out your Mobile No and check you were Okay, but got sidetracked into bed.,...

Good to hear you made it home in one piece....


Best regards
