Count us in, with our refurb'd wheels, citroen washers with inline aux pump and rear light leaks sorted. Really getting the bug, off to Glossop tomorrow for a ride out and visit MGFnTF while we're at it. :sf:

Welcome to the darkside, think I'll have a go at fitting the ZT washer pump to mine this weekend as the Torque Tamer bushes and air intake snorkel haven't arrived yet.

See you there!

All, I'm really sorry but I will not be able to make it this evening. My car has a coolant leak and William is poorly at the minute so I don't really want to leave Lorna stranded without transport. I'm sure you will have a nice evening and hope to see you soon.

Points I was planning to mention tonight...

1. Pride of Longbridge in April. There is a thread in our section for this but wanted to try and gauge interest in the convoy.

2. Extra pub meet. There has been some interest in another pub meet further north in the region (somewhere around Mansfield/Alftreton area). I have a couple of venue suggestions and just need to confirm the dates but thought we'd go for the first Tuesday of the month probably.

3. The totaliser on the ebay-a-thon stands at £30 so far with my Chrome Ashtray and the ramps kindly donated by Ken and Beverley. I think we are about half way there so if there are any other donations please let me know. I can always nip and fetch them from you rather than waiting for the next meet if that's easier. I have a couple of tail lights that I will list this week as well.

Sorry to let you down.

Hi Folks, hope you had a nice evening last night. Apologies again that I could not make it. Looks like I'll be off the road until next week at least :rant:

If there are any comments or thoughts/feedback for the points I raised below, please feel free to send me a message on here or to the email address in my signature.

Cheers and see you soon I hope

Shame about the family and the F, hope there all fixed soon, the evening was full of chat about everything under the sun and at one stage we even had a chat about MG's.
Shame about our Kettering branch but we hope to see him back for a visit, even if it is in a F*@d Probe...lol!
As far as Longbridge goes we'll have to wait to make a decision on that one but a 2nd pub meet up in t'north sounds like a good idea and we're both up for it. We still have those top boxes if you want them for ebay, just IM us and we can arrange a pick up drop off to fit in with you. :sf:

Great, glad it was a good evening.

William has hand, foot and mouth, which is apparently not as bad as the bovine version :-S

Coolant leak had been located and parts now ordered so should be back on the road next week all being well :thumbsu:

Will get the other meet sorted tomorrow and post details B-)
