Thanks John but I'm just a little elf-like helper and only peripherally involved.nuggitt wrote:You're open!!! I'm well impressed with the facilities oldskool. I think you'll do well with that adventure. Good luck to you and the team.
For one point, it certainly makes jobs easier than struggling in cramped conditions on a garage floor when you've got the space to work and access to tools and facilities that are not the norm.

As I said, I'm only peripherally involved.
It's a great facility.
Along with a warm welcome, there's rumoured to be dancing girls there on Saturday!.......well ......maybe a wife in a party frock.....!......either way, final arrangements being made right now.

DIY means you do it and get to make it cheap...doesnt mean it will be done for you by the owners of the business on the cheap.
Ive no problem helping out a mate, but business is business, rates aren't free etc...

I often forget that 26 years has passed but still puts a smile on the face.
Whoever gets her next will be pleased.

Nice to see things in action Paul. Is that your exup?oldskoolexup wrote:

We are expecting thunderstorms over in our neck of the woods today. I think I'll have to relocate over to your tropical west side.
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.
