That's about in reach of me. Might visit once I have a full car. Will collect Pete on the way through too!

Sounds like a plan!

Great result Andy - well done!

No starter, fish & chips (with bread and butter, if possible), no pudding. Thanks very much!

Pete

I'll do it tomorrow Phil - sorry for delay

Pete

Anyone else see Mike Kimberly on repair shop? Should be on the BBC iPlayer soon - worth watching!

Pete

Great progress Stu! You'll be in the s**t when she sees what you've done to the living room carpet
