it's fairly big... would be ok in a hatchback but might be more of a struggle in a saloon.
I had a PM from Peetee - not sure if he's in that area but he's also got some stuff for me.

I'm hoping that Matt can bring some stuff up (including the bumper) but if that doesn't work then maybe it'll wait until I get down to Salisbury.

Any preferences / suggestions on where to this week...?

Also - I keep forgetting to ask my "Nipple question" each Thursday...
:o

Ive tried greasing my nipples but the grease gun always gets locked onto the nipple and I have a heck of a job to remove it...is this usual?...am I doing something wrong?

Oh dear - just been reminded that I have to transport my elder daughter to / from her school disco this Thursday evening so I cant come along after all :(

So any "nipple advice" via this thread would be appreciated :D !

it can be a problem to get the gun off, most of the jaws on them are design to lock on and they open when you tilt them to an angle, so dont try and pull it off in a straight line. But it never seems to work very well, worst are the handbrake cables which tend to move as you try and twist the gun.
