Gents, thanks a lot for your encouraging words!
Whenever anyone of this forum happened to be nearby, feel
bound to drop by for a drink of your choice!
This reminds me of a nice feature on the AJMOC website: They have set up an assistance list for members. In case of a breakdown, you have online access to a list of members, sorted by country and region, and with information about available facilities (accomodation, garage/overnight storage, workshop, single/double trailer, towing), plus the full name, address and phone (preferably mobile) number.
That could be a neat idea for the member's section of this forum methinks??? Nice to know whom to call when you are stranded, especially in a foreign country. Just a thought, up for discussion (maybe start a new thread?). Of course we'd need to make sure the data is safe, since that is a LOT of personal information!
Soon, you and your partner Ed will be buying classics and fixing them up on TV for quick money. (http://www.wheelerdealer.com/)
Nice one Richard!
I was well surprised when I first read your remark, because my partner's name is indeed Ed (or rather "Eddy")!!! (How the heck did you know???) Then it occured to me that you were referring to Ed China... Although I doubt that there is such a thing as quick money with restorations, especially if you take it seriously!
I have however imposed strict separation of "working" and "playing" upon myself, otherwise there is indeed high risk of frittering away time. So there's designated time to play, and designated time to "work" (although I don't feel it as such, MOST of the time at least).
I shall post pics of our projects on the website as we go along, so keep checking back! No need to spam the forum
Julian, very impressive website and facilities, makes my old shack look like a chicken house... At least now I know whom to bother when it comes to pre-war parts. One can't have too many contacts and too wide a network! Website duly bookmarked
Thanks again, Bob, musky, Erling and Richard, for your supporting wishes, let's hope so, by goodness!!!
Cheers and all the best, Markus
