    Driving up on the Saturday morning it should be that bad. When I first met my wife she was at Uni in Notts so would do the trip most friday evenings in rush hour. That was painful on occasion.

    Given that we've no idea what the weather will be like, I would suggest that at least one person brings a 3x3 (or larger!) pop-up gazebo. I've got one, which can cover the front (or back) end of one car to keep sun or rain or snow off you, but some extras won't hurt to give more sheltered area!

    I was certainly grateful for it when doing my cam belt!

    At this rate we might be able to make a 2x2 or 2x3 area and cover the whole driveway!

    To add to this, I may look to fit the tow bar and maybe replace a front to rear brake line.

    And chase a minor misfire (maybe with Dave's kit ).

    This is also more of an aide memoire to me!

    Hi guys, sorry but I am not going to be able to make it down to the garage weekend.
    I have to do some stuff on my car and I need to be at home for that.

    Sorry, would have nice to catch up. Next time.
    Have a good time and keep us posted of any updates.

    @paulbonner84 I do currently have a slightly battered one affixed to the bumper, so I'm not in need of one, thanks

    If it fits a PFL, I'll take it off your hands, How many pennies do you require?

    Aaaaand I'm out.

    I was hoping that the clutch would be OK for the journey up and back and then was going to take it off the road while I swap it but hit the M25 last night and it's a struggle to drive.

    Next time
    @Nick Mann, I'll drop you a PM in a couple of days to get the adaptor ordered

    @Amonlym @galantnight @Layton1985 I've sent you some details, including my address and phone number, as you've not attended one of my Garage Meets before

    @adaxo are you able to come along?


    The rest of you who have said you're coming ( @Nick Mann @foxdie @elnevio ) - you've been before, you know the drill, and you know where I live, so I've not bothered sending you any messages!


    Really looking forward to this coming weekend, should be fun! Hopefully we'll try to remember to take some photos etc so others can see how much fun we have at these things!
