i can't use the van as it's not "business use" as it';s classified as "private useage" so the tax man is going to fornicate with my backside (as well as my wages) if he finds out

and the car is sitting in the garage awaiting it's tracking to be done as the steering wheel sits about an inch out when you drive in a straight line
how this is possible when it was fine befroe the spring went and we didn't undo the steering from the hub is beyond me, if i could make it i would, but it doesn't look like it's going to be possible

unless someone is going to donate me a set ot 18 inch tyres

Good to see you all again after three months of not being able to tag along

Good to see old and new faces too

Nick, you're more than welcome, glad you found it useful

Helen, the back roads to the meet off the M3 Hook junction are unreal, I just wish they could close them temporarily to stop other cars coming the other way

Here's to the next one
