Well it's a nice idea but that's a seriously rough and cramped area of town.
IMSMW that was the place that was used by the Bosch vehicle service agent. He was b***y useless.

Umm, its my area of town...

Thanks Pete.

Well you know what it's like for parking then.

Posted: **Mon May 11, 2009 11:36 pm**

yep, but if the car is in the workshop......

Been over there and checked it out. The entrance to the workshop is on Cambridge road, theres heaps of 2hr Parking available...

The pit is about 5ft deep and dry as a bone and I reckon theres space for 3 cars & one to be worked on. Its got electricity (plug sockets everywhere!), water and gas (but I don't think gas would be nessecary)

I reckon theres space for 3-4 cars and one over the pit

Built in the 1980s as a backstreet garage the council removed the buildings status for trade use after a member of the public was injured after an oil spill from the building. Its ready at the end of May and I'm convinced it would be perfect as a Sadmog Workshop!

And the best bit? Theres a specialist purveyor of fine real ales over the road! So if we have a SADMOG workshop night then we are sorted

I really really want to take this place on, but can't quite afford it on my own just yet. The guy is going to hold it for me until tomorrow evening. So is there anyone else who is interested in taking the place on with me? (the more that do, the cheaper it will be

)

Sorry Dan bit too rich for me at the Mo'

Mind you if I actually worked out how much I spent on crisps each month the answer might be different. ;)

Anyhoo where too this week?

Likewise on Tunnucks Caramel bars and teabags.

Trouble is I'd pay for the garage and then still eat all the crisps.

I think the worst sadmog night so far has been 8 bags of Tyrrells finest between 3 of us.

Empress it is then. See you all later

Colin and Rob will be there, see you later.
