A BIG thank you Mark

Anybody able to identify the special handmade piece of equipment used to fill the gearbox?

By the way Mark road holding was better on the way home so we were perhaps both right - extra weight so tyre pressure needed increasing

good to see you getting "hands on" with your Midget Nigel!

car looks lovely BTW, very much look forward to seeing it in the metal!

I see your apprenticeship with me earlier this year has paid off then Nigel?

Fancy helping me put the gearbox back in later this week?

Will we see you at Wicksteed Park this weekend for the Britcar meeting?

ETA: Car looks great BTW

sorry I can't, I've hurt my shoulder 3-4 weeks ago that's why I've not offered before and why I asked for Mark's facility today - I even had to go to a local pub's beer festival two days running to take my mind off it

no, we're on the Southern Ardennes Mountain Trail in Belgium for the weekend that's the only reason for me doing anything on the car

I just picked up your message - was out on Heidi's Birthday night out.

You should have said you daft bear steward and I would have happily helped out.

I was wondering why we hadn't seen more of you. I thought I'd frightened you off when I had to dash off to a meeting on the day you dropped off the head test kit.

Anyway, I hope the shoulder gets better and have a great time in La Belgique and see you when you get back!
