Thanks mate :D

No worries Carl. I can go lanining any time, but it's not very often that I get the chance to tinker with engines. The important thing that night was a meal and a pint in the pub.

Now I know how to do it, expect a "How to" on 2.8 glow plug changes in the near future :D

It turns out to be "SteveB", having read about our plans on this very forum.

Then three motor bikes came past:

Then you get to see SteveB:

Hiya Steve - hope you had a good day out too. Thanks for opening the gate.

Lawrence


Cool, i have even made it onto your website, :) hope you all had a great weekend, and enjoyed the wayfarer track, its nice and handy for me. Next time your out and about would love to join you guys. as i am not that adventerous by myself, i even turned around on one track, will have to find out which one it is and see if you guys did it.

It was great to bump into you all. Hopefully see you soon.

Fixed the tailgate not opening problem :D: solution posted here

Probably some extreme articulation up to the lost lake caused the link to disengage:

Oh, and sorry Stevd - I failed to remember correctly and called you SteveB above :oops:
