as always late decision it seems
how about the new forest hotel at Ashurst?
No idea what the weather is going to be like, but will be in the astra as Colin may join me and needs a comfortable ride ;-)

Is anyone available at some point this weekend to try and roll Milly?
I've welded all I can do upright and I just want to get her on her side to get at the sill flange.

Job done
Took three of us and was not as tricky as I thought it would be.
Admittedly no engine or doors so its about as light as possible.

ok folks lets say Empress as its easy for most to get to and see who can make it.
need to ask for some help guys... brake fluid leak has stepped up a level, not had transmission cover off so can't tell if it is hose to the top up kit where it enters the master or if the master is giving up, but need to change it ASAP (like now before I drive to france!) Is there anyone that can lend a hand on sunday? payment in beers of your choice (take away of course) tea and biscuits during the job. Have new master cylinder ready to go (need to remove seal first due to discs) spare screws for those that get mangled in cover removal, but need to borrow brake bleed kit and anyone got one of those tools to hold the torsion bar out of the way? otherwise it gets to be a bigger job.
Cheers guys see you Thursday

Ok I know it's far too early to decide on next weeks venue, But.
I could do with a couple/three (pairs of) hands to roll Millly back on her wheels , Laughing at my Garden and as much Tea as fits in your pockets is included in this once in a lifetime offer

.
As I'm on the scrounge has anyone got a Radiator that still has some gills on it? Maudes is usable and solid but the thin gills are falling out at an alarming rate.
Also Matt, any chance of an 1100 gasket set? not fussed which make as its all the little ones I'm after not the head so much.
Any hoo where to next week then
