I have watched your van for ages before you had to move it over seas and
so happy to see it be put right.

The little rubber nuts where pretty shit tbh so i replaced them with some wing nutz.

Anyway simple job yet very satisfying. what with have no nose for so long. :)

Hi all..

Finally got a new laptop so should be more frequent now,, ::)

So if you can all remember? i was in the process of getting this border check exemption done... well the guy that was going to help me out immensely isn't showing promise :'(
So i am now going to have to sort a trailer to haul it to a shop for them to do this 10 minute job and charge me like a wounded bull no doubt?

got a couple of weeks holiday coming up then i will be grabbing a huge trailer from work.
Its a normal drop side trailer so will need a bit of faffing to get the old girl ontop..
(im sensing money in all directions for this shit now so im trying to move the bus with minimal to no cost) incase your wondering?

oh, and remember i had a cert guy round for first visit? he was going to email me the info and forms to send off, along with his bill for a 15minute visit....... never heard back from him either!!!
