Hi All, A great big thank you to the team who organised and brought all the gear to the site putting up the flags and banners so that the old people could find their way to the beddy-bye area. Seriously though a lot of precious time has gone into making the event possible and I think I can safely say that most people enjoyed the weekend. A special thank you whoever ordered the sunshine I think that they should be put on a retainer for next year. Hade a good ride home nice cuppa walk the dog shower bed in that order. Nice to see old friends and new ones. Till we meet happy hoodin or ROCAR safely. Great time Allan

I know its a bit late but has anybody got one of the above which is taking up space could you bring to Stoneleigh. just needed to set injector angles on Aluminium inlet manifold, beer tokens available. I will be in the pink Astra van yes it's still going. Regards Allan

It was a site to behold that was my second year, The look on your face was unforgettable, Then the Celtic contingent arrived, I can still remember grown men crying with laughter as you emerged from your tent. Days of great fun and constant entertainment. As the weather looks to be good lets hope for a good turnout to keep this last show alive. See you all from Saturday drive safe Allan

Thanks, Kieth, The map of the site shows 3 plot as 62 shall we aim for the largest one, I will there about 2 PM depending on traffic at Scotch corner. The weather report is looking good so hope for a good turnout. So travel safe everyone and see you there. Thanks again to Kieth and the rest of the committee for sorting it out so quickly. Regards Allan.

thanks

Hi fellow Hoodies. I'm back from my holidays in deepest Northumberland and have nearly washed off the woad(the air was blue). I hope the rest of you, are out of hibernation given the extreme weather in the last few days.I am going to be at Chester-Le -Street on wednesday. Who else will be there looking forward to seeing as many as possible. Best Regards Allan

Hi Alan. I will be there on Wednesday hoping the weather will be better than the last time we met! Best regards and lets hope some of the other members can make it.

Hi guys. Just to say nice night last night hope that you all have a good time at the weekend. Also have a Merry Christmas and will see you all at Stoneleigh. Best Regards Allan

Hi Ryan. I would see if you have a steel fabricator nearbye who fabricates steel buildings as this is quite a common size for brace tubes and you may get offcuts cheaper. Its 139 dia CHS (circular hollow section) if you have a gusset on the outside put the seam under the weld. Best of luck with your venture. Best regards Allan

Hi Alan. I will be there,just got back from a short holiday in Northumberland so if I can wash this b####y woad off I will be there bright and early, Look forward to seeing the rest of the gang. Safe journey to you all Regards Allan P.S. did you order the sunshine?

Hi Daniel. Have you checked the crank senser mounting ,thats the ali piece which is installed on the flywheel side of the engine block, As there are two types one for auto and one for manual gearbox one short one long can't remember which is which but the auto one will not work with a manual flywheel. Where did you get the box reconed?. Allan

Hi you should be able too rent a stone cutting chain saw but may be expensive,Best way is to cut off more than you need to and rebuild the wall end as a pier. So cut dowd each side chop off with bolster chisel and build up wall end tied into existing brickwork with long screws and plugs

Hi Alan. Will be there as long as you get us some better weather. See you all tomorrow. Allan

Has this years show fallen by the wayside or is it a computer glitch. Can't get any access online or on showground site. I hope not it's the only time I get to meet the membership in the flesh. Allan

Hi Alan. Nice to see you on Sunday good crake,Will be there tomorrow. All the best. Allan

Hi. My wife and I are thinking of a holiday in the Peak District in September 2017,and making Bakewell our base. Can anyone give us the heads up of any accomodation in the Bakewell area that is dog friendly has two bedrooms and in a rural location. Any help or guidance you can give will be greatly appreciated. Hope that you have all had a wonderful Christmas break and to wish all Fellow Hoodies a Prosperous New Year. Best regards Allan.

Hi Harry. Sorry to not to have seen you,I missed two with my holidays. I went last time but there was just Norman and Pat so we had a drink and chat and went home. There does seem to be a lack of interest at the moment "see Alantoons post" it may just be holidays and work. As to the 28th I will not be there as on holiday. Hope that the New Year will be better attended. Hope that you and your family have a great and restful time and look forward to seeing you in the New Year. So wishing you and all the North East Hoodies a very Merry Christmas and Prosperous New Year. Lookig Forward to seeing you all 26th January 2017. Best regards Allan

Hi Dan, I am not familier with the car but is it a stupid question to ask. Can you put them in the other way with the nuts underneath the car? If not 1 washer 1nut thread lock and 2 threads protuding. Allan

I will see you all there Allan

Hi Nelmo. I think you will find that there are several oil vendors who sell special MT75 oil, I think if they go to that expence then it should be right. Regards Allan

Hi Guys. Whilst surfing through the Locost Forum I came across this very cautionary Item,It concerns a Man who took the time to read the guidance notes issued by the relevant Authority's on the use of an "A" frame to move a car.But he fell foul of a Traffic Officer and the out come was very expensive and long lasting. Read his story on the Locost Forum under the IVA and Legal heading,So if your going towing think are you legal,As it would appear now to be very black or white,who is right? I personally think it is about time that all these complex and ambiguous traffic laws were brought up to date and are applied evenly all over the country. Go Carefully among the Traffic.
