Nice ad-hoc event, will try to get to a couple

I’m just home from emergency abdominal surgery, can’t drive for six weeks ! Recovering well otherwise though. Hope it’s a good event nonetheless.

I can't make it this month, sorry.

Planning to be there this time...

Can’t make it this month, sorry

Went from a 1967 GT6 to a 1980's Metro, due to family pressures. Horrible thing, knackered hydraulic suspension, blowing oil out the exhaust, then had to replace clutch and head gasket in the end. Spent more time trying to fix it than the GT6 ! Ended up replacing it with an ex-driving school Vauxhall Nova that'd done twice the mileage but lasted us forever.

We're moving house that day, maybe a 50% chance we can get over but at least I can save on cooking dinner !

I didn’t do the build, but the dowels look like the ‘bonnet pins’ you can buy on the GBS Kit Spares site, £15 for a set. Hope that helps, Smig (Simon)

Hi, not been on the forum for awhile, just caught this. I'll get you a photo tomorrow.

Hi Everyone, we’re both suffering heavy colds, been hoping for them to break in time but no luck. We’ll not make it tonight. Hope you enjoy yourselves. Kerry, if we owe you anything please PM or text me some bank details . cheers, Simon & Mary

I'll have Chestnut & Parsnip Soup, Baked Butternut Squash & Spinach Gratin, Sweet & Sticky Nut Slice with Vegan Ice Cream Mary will have Beetroot & Red Onion Tarte Tatin, Sea Bass, Cheese slate, please

I plan to be there

Mary and I can make it on 4th, looking forward to it

Mine has three dowels along one of the long edges, these give enough stability for the four bonnet catches to do the job

I’m suffering some heavy cold symptoms so I’ll stay away this time

I’ve booked a pitch for the Friday evening, Mary has a wedding on the Saturday.

I should be there, thanks for the chance to warm up the Pinto!

Sorry to miss you Kerry. I’m setting off shortly now the rain’s passed through

I'll be there. There was an article about the new licensee in the Mercury, it looks like a good set-up.

Great, I’ll text you from my new mobile number, thanks

Hope to see you there. Can anyone lend me a high-torque electric impact wrench with a 22mm socket ? I need to swap an altenator pulley, otherwise I'll arrive on a push bike next week,

I hope you enjoy the run out. I wanted to come along but I've been swamped with preparations for finishing at work (taking VS). Hopefully I'll be out and about in August. Cheers Simon

I’ve had some cold symptoms persisting for several weeks so I’ll have to err on the side of caution and hope to see you at the next one

Can’t make it tonight, Mary’s not well. See you next time

Mary: Goats Cheese - Grilled Salmon - Sweet & sticky nut slice Simon: Avocado & crayfish - Mushroom Stroganof - Glazed Lemon Cheesecake please, sorry for missing the deadline
