Better stop worrying about the scuffed washer bottle and get on with attaching the axle then! ;) :D

What do you still have to do before the MOT?

Booking in advance is a bit cheaper (£12.50 vs. £15.00 on the day) and then it's just do what instructed when you get there re. where to park and the like.

I'll be there on the Saturday with Jasper.

Is there a Website area to camp?

well, that should help people to tell you apart... :D

After the comment above for the uninited me and Matt are twins, not identical twins, but we do have a very strong resemblance. The easiest way to tell us apart for those who don't know us is that I have a beard.






Maybe I'll shave it off as a joke..........

I don't think you look even slightly similar :o Do people really have trouble telling you apart? :roll: Better keep the beard, then (no, on second thoughts, beards are seriously rough and orrid :P *faxes you a Bic*)

Yes, people do have problems!

Thanks for the fax, but the beard is staying. I look far better with than without.


And just to throw a new ball into the mix my trav is very nearly legal :D

I see what you mean, you look just like Matt in the beardless picture.

For what it's worth, I think you look better without the beard :wink:
