Do you still have room for a couple of squatters and 3 dogs?

Would we be OK coming Friday evening or is that pushing our luck?

Cheers Simon.

G'day matey, i guess you would like me to bring something along :shrug: , just give me an idea of what you think best for me to bring apart from myself of course.

I went in a local shop the other day and got the shock of my life :whistle: , Hello young man :shrug: what can i help you with?, i immediately turned round but there was know body there which meant she was talking to me :thud: .

Last time i looked in a mirror i nearly :aaagh: myself to death with what i saw so the old gal was either being very polite or need's a lot stronger glasses :wink: .

After that little episode and after i had got outside it was then i realized i had bought something i didn't really need :embarassed: , i trundled home rather than go back in the shop having forgotten what i really went for :stars: .

I guess the exercise will do me good :laugh: . Catch you later. R-Rose :tiphat: .

Was being hopeful that my lass could get Friday off but sadly she can't. So all being well we shall join you on Saturday provided the gearbox lasts that long.

Most of the gearbox is now back in so hopefully it'll be ready by Friday.

Right now I'm so envious of the folk with military Land Rovers and their removable gearbox crossmember, hardest job was getting the seat box out on mine.

The first time I have to remove the box on any of mine the crossmember will be cut!

I intend to cut it flush with the chassis, then weld a plate to each end, drill though and bolt, similar to the Disco crossmember. :cheers:

Cheers,
Robin.
