That looks a comfortable position to be working on the car.
And if you got it resting on atyre atleast you'll know its secure

fortunately for me i missed Beefy running after the security guard flapping his tackle at him .
Jacko must of been real desperate for a good drink lol

It was good to catch up with Beefy , Graham c ,Dingla rs(Andy) ,Whizzisat114(Dave),Cutch ,doberman(Jason )Coleyst200(Ian)& Porkie the next afternoon.

i got to admit the Saturday night was the best part for me but the show was all right though .
