Believe me tony I eyed the banner a few times to see if I could manage to take it with me but the tent was more appealing so it is still in the car.that was a 90 mile round trip to yours wasted.

Was good to just catch you Richard as you arrived at the show, and I was getting ready to leave. Sorry to hear about your bad luck, but glad that you seem to have found a pair of shocks that might work. Hopefully it'll all go well tomorrow.

You should have given one of us at the show a bell, we could have saved you the train journey.
Hope it goes well tomorrow

Thanks mate but a long way east for anyone to come and rescue me, if you would answer phone whilst driving and spoil your day out.
Train travel is free for me so no great shakes just a shame I fooked me weekend up as really wanted to take a walk round the show today and tomorrow looking at all stand and auto jumble and a slow drive home tomorrow.
All I could do is a quick blat round it for a hr looking for bits and got to go at 8 am tomorrow to get cab and train back to the outskirts of MM to try and repair.
Give me a chance to test new camp bed anyways and
on third beer now .

Rich, sorry to hear all this - it seems when ever you have car trouble there's no-one around to help. Always call if there's a problem, we'll try out best to help you out. :D
