Newbie checking in!

Hello peeps! I have a Mk2, it's a Ford, and not a transit! She's a 1985 Ghia, badged up as an X by a previous owner. Having water pump issues at the moment (like I can't get a new one fitted cos the bolts sheared off) but hope to be back on the road soon.

Ha Ha you a newbie, thats a first, I am about to be on a forum with you and have MORE posts

Give me a chance

Oh dear, more posts than me didn't last

Spammer!!!

Dear Uncle Muttley,
My mechanic doesn't understand me, what should I do?
Yours,
Desperate transit owner.....

Dear Desperate, I suggest you tell him all about you self and make sure he has coffee all the time. This will allow him to get on just great

Well I would, but the dog set the gas off and I didn't want to blow the house up. Does this mean I have to take the camping gas stove down to me storage?

Bloody good idea

One ring or two? We could have a fry up as well, I believe said mechanic likes healthy food.....

Oooh! i love a fry up, bring your stove and pan to the next meet

Or the first granada forum meet? Am I catering now??

If you want, be good to have refreshments on hand

Well I do keep threatening to put a catering truck together, and have been known to end up making the drinks when on Low Budget shoots......

Why not? could be a nice little earner, got any suggestions on a venue for the first meet?

Apart from the Ace (and I don't think a snack wagon would be welcome there!) no idea, but will give it some thought.

a lot of car clubs/forums have meetings in pub car parks but like the ace i doubt they would be happy about a food wagon being on site, but if we do go somewhere where they serve food there's nothing to stop you setting up on the other side of the road

True. There was a pub in Ickenham I used to go to for a Cortina meet, just off the A40, and another in Denhem that might be OK with us meeting, want me to check?

Yes please

Freds house!!! YAY, lets fill the road up and really piss off the neighbours

yeah fill the street up with PROPER cars

OOOOO I can't tell you how tempting that would be!

Go for it, get bertha up and fire up a barby

Well Bertha does still have a chimney from her New Age Traveller days.....

We can light a fire under it then
