Hi all.. :bluewave:

Had a great time up at Hatton. Dragged Mrs.Colin up there and her friend too. They spent their time in the Farm and gave a quick glance around the field before we all left.

Was pukka to meet so many more dudes from here. I think I lay claim to the Jod Clark remark but I cant be the only one who thought it surely? Anyway, top bloke you are Jod, glad to meet you!

I'll wait for Dollyboy to tell you all what I said to him when I met him for the first time (unless he gets shy!! [not likely])

Whoever owns BOK the Inca Sprint..... Well I was so taken by the colour of Inca, having only seen it in photo's, that I'm now going to get mine done the same colour.
I'm backed up by the Mrs. on this so maybe she'll be a bit more interested in the progress.

It went ike this..
"What colour then babe for our one?"
"Our one? You mean your one!"
"Well anyway...."
"Errr.. Hmm ooohh the bright yellow one!!"
"That's Inca!"
"Well anyway......"

Oh the deep and meaningful convo's....

Just wondered... How on earth did you get that trailer back with only three wheels Alun?

Pimento is actually quite rare now. IMHO unless it is a total strip down a colour change doesn't really work.

There was a Pimento one at TDCIR for sale Malc, offers around £2K. It was in good nick but didn't get much attention.

I'm doing a full strip now so I hope the car ends up as good as I can do it.
I always wanted a yellow one but do like Pimento 8)
It's called killing two birds with one stone.

I want to make sure I get mine back on the road.
I wanted a yellow one.

Could get one of each though :eureka: :eureka:

Lee, that'll do me nicely :D Fancy a swop??

Well, I didn't notice it come off, so just loaded the stuff into the other side of the car...and avoided the motorway! It certainly made turning right a lot easier!!

Tin's comment as I arrived amused me; he'd not seen the ropes underneath and said

'Justyn will kill you, pulling a car on a trailer only held down with a couple of ratchet straps'

ie completely missing the fact that the trailer only had three wheels!!!

Sorry to have missed you all this year and glad every one had a good time.

Perhaps with the motoring mayhem getting to and fro, it was probably best I was working!

Alun found your wheel! :lol: :lol: :lol:

I should be back from you know where in time for next year though!

:)
