Dave Ashworth Posted June 1, 2013 Report Share Posted June 1, 2013 Hi Budgie, Welcome to the forum. I hope you will be joining the Register soon and also your local group, where you will find lots of support and help for anything TR that you may need. You will find on the forum that there are some great engineers and lots of experience, then there are those of us who aren't great engineers, but get our hands oily anyway and do our best. But for sure, you will find lots of help on here. Let us know more about what you've bought and some photos, too if you get upload anything. All the best for now. Dave.

Alec Pringle Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 Welcome Budgie, new recruits are a blessing. For your sins, you are joining an unruly fraternity . . . . don't be disconcerted by the wry humour, it's well intentioned if not always so well expressed - the world of TRs is populated with some rough diamonds, but diamonds nevertheless. You may think you're just buying a car, before long you may come to realise that you've bought into a lifestyle ! Cheers Alec Quote Link to post Share on other sites
