Bugger, 7 days until we leave for the Dordogne and Angouleme and I've put my back out!
-
Hi Kev, Yes, will post on the forum about our trip to Angouleme. Ahhh, the South of France in June 2012 via the Loire and Dordogne was a fantastic trip, and then back a week and off to Classic Le Mans in VUX. I've attached out outline itinerary below and also my spares list; of course I didn't need any of it! If you intend to visit the Dordogne, then I would highly recommend staying at the Vineyard in Minzac which is a run by friends of Kiwifrog (Alan Wynn) - the website is in the itinerary and a YouTube video is on a Facebook photo page.
-
Yep, a small party of us are off in Sep - Vineyard (first week), hotel in Angouleme booked (hotels are already filing up fast!) and stopovers in the Loire there and back all sorted - Tickets: http://www.circuit-des-remparts.com/index-id_page-108-lang-uk.html Cheers Andrew

Off to the Monaco Historic in May 2014 Howard - Link and then Circuit des Remparts, Angouleme in Sep with Mr & Mrs Drunken Folly - Link That's if Duncan's TR5 will start..................and then keep going! Cheers Andrew

Great, VUX sailed through the MOT today with no advisories!
-
Put around 25 miles each on TuRK and VUX this morning just to keep the wheels turning - nice sunny day but flipping freezing with aeroscreens fitted to TuRK - thank god for VUX's screen! At last, my knee held up in TuRK – happy days!
-
Painful physio session - feels like a set-back!

'No pain, no gain' injured this knee in 1994, then again in 2005 and consequentially back in October..........not recommended.

Phew, that wasn't very nice, but the back has eased off now - helped by copious amounts of Easter Eggs! :-)
-
Andrew, you need a dolly.
-
Stan, once I had pulled my back I moved the enigine around on my trolley jack - should have done that in the first place.
-
Just had a great drive out in TuRK and had almost forgotten how rewarding it is driving a sidescreen in the sunshine!

Hopefully you will be out TRing shortly, speedy recovery George not forgetting your other half Andrew.!!
-
At least you will hopefully be out next week then Andrew - Early April for me!!!
-
Thanks folks, I've now got three different types eye drops which I'm taking two drops about eight times a day, so hopefully all will be well by the weekend - either that or I’ll have drowned!

Glory Glory Man Utd. What more can i say
-
I think you have already said more than enough.

Started using Firefox, kicks the arse out of Explorer which slows down my laptop!

Preferred browser for a good while - Safari none too bad either!
-
Too many website incompatibilities with Safari on my Macs so it's FF for me now.
-
my brother in law is a bit of an IT wizard and suggested we use FF some years ago - good choice
-
Cracking day yesterday so drove TuRK (3A) to work (hey, that rhymes!) – off today, so VUX’s (6) turn to get a good blast in the sunshine!! :-)
-
Managed to get the 3A and 6 out this afternoon and Andy B enjoyed his trip out in TuRK, and now wants to buy a 3A – good choice that man! - that is after I changed the points and condenser to get TuRK going! Anyone seen the film ‘Christine’? :-)
-
is hacked off again - just got TuRK ready for a quick spin round the block and it's started to rain - conspiracy!! :-(
-
Yep, Roger took the hard top off of our 4A as it was such a lovely day. before he had put the top it away it had turned cloudy and as we drove out of our road it started raining. By the time we got to The Crown at Capel it was raining quite hard and we discovered the surrey roof stay had broken and we had no umbrella to take its place. Inside of the car got a soaking while we had a very nice lunch.
-
Went out in mine anyway,very cold very wet, nothing changes.
-
It's a bit different with aeroscreens fitted Paul...........my brolly won't stay up! :-)

-
is extremely hacked off: 3 bouts of ‘man flu’ since Christmas and it’s still lingering, tore a calf muscle last week in the gym and now I’ve put my bloody back out – what more can go wrong?!!

Guy – it should be gone by the IOW, but if not you’ll be ok as long as you don't kiss me or Neil! :-)
Peter - Yes, I intend to back into fitness if it kills me! :-)
-
What more can go wrong ? Maybe the little blue pills will stop working . . . !!!
-
OUCH torn calf muscle, been there done that, Take it steady they can be a bugger to fix....
-
Took the TR3A and 6 out today for a spin (bit bracing!!) to keep things moving and Baldrick came too - more days like this please! :-)

After talking to Neil this morning he shamed me into it ! Bl**dy Ball froze
-
Only the one froze, UVC166????
-
Yes just the one Peter, must get a heater, and a hood.
-
Saw some photos of Baldrick's TR6 chassis and painted body tub at Stuart's workshop - very, very nice job Stuart!
-
