Cheers Cal [Y] Got the goodridge hoses fitted last week but the Mrs Peugeot 206 1.4 Automatic feels like it's got better brakes than mine [:S]

Any idea how much a set of DS2500's would cost for a blobeye?

Might be interested too, particularly in a red fleece jacket if poss.

Another vote for Gary @ Keith Michaels - cheapest by far this time last year and just about to renew with them on Monday [Y]

Congratulations to both of you [Y]

"is that April or Fee over there?"

A guy I work with who lives in Cumbernauld phoned me yesterday to say "Do you know anyone with a blue subaru with yellow wheels?" After i'd corrected him about the gold wheels he said he'd seen one lying in Cumbernauld with a 4x4 into the side of it - he did say it was pretty mangled too. He didnt catch the reg. plate and after trying to explain the differences of a classic v newage over the phone with him for 5 mins he still couldnt tell me which type it was! Hope whoever was involved was ok.

I think revolution do the silvatec indicator bulbs Kevan - W21W are what we blobeye owners need, dunno if it's the same in the hawkeye though. Bit pricey but worth it in my opinion.

Due to me never being allowed onto parents insurance @ 17 (unlike all my mates) I had to take out insurance on my own. So had a succesion 1-litre cars (mini - rolled it. metro - smashed it in edinburgh. fiat panda - someone ran into the back of it, Citroen AX - ran into the back of someone, Fiat Cinquecento - ex-fiance ran into the back of someone).[:S] Plus, since i started driving in the late 80's i've had 12 points (or maybe 15 - not sure) - definitely 9 for speeding and 3 for a bald tyre when i was 18. So - insurance has always been a nightmare for me, but when it came time for Dawn & I to get married it was discussed that we would want to trying for kids fairly soon after the wedding. Once the kiddies came along it would then be time to be sensible + pennies would be short, so Dawn & I decided last March that it would be the best time to get some sort of performance car while I had the chance. Looked at a Seat Leon Cupra R, test-drove a brand-new Civic Type R but decided it would have to be the scooby ten seconds into test driving it. []

How about the BBQ idea is revived, in Bute perhaps? Need to be July/August to be sure of good weather though (or as sure as you can be in Scotland!)

Ah well..... st3ph3n comes to the rescue [Y] Nice looking car you got there Kevan.

Awrabest Russ [Y]

When I seen the title of this thread I got all excited, then realised it was pictures taken at Knockhill [:S]

Happy birthday Martin [Y]

Thoroughly enjoted the pax laps today with st3ph3n and Marty (Scoobaru) - many thanks lads, really appreciate it. Hope your gearbox/clutch repair aint too costly Wilky, the car was fair shiftin before the breakdown [Y]

Andy - i'm meeting sheep* @ the caravan sales place just before the Kincardine bridge around 8.30am *The SIDC member who has the username sheep, not the 4-legged wooly variety, before anyone tries to me a smarterse

Think Sharon moved house recently and doesn't have internet access yet @ her new place. The Mrs. was diagnosed with sleep aponea 3 or 4 months ago but she was allowed to keep driving, I guess it depends on the severity of the condition? She has to sleep with a mask on everynight attached to a CPAP machine and she's noticed an improvement on the quality of sleep she gets.

Paul - I touch goats with my mobile number (just in case) Neil - no probs - see you around 8am @ deer park - you also have PM with my moby Gus - hope you can make it the morra, geez a text if you canny.

So how about 8am @ the deer park in livi, then 8.25-8.30am the kincardine bridge?

How much would Stevie take for painting it Gus?

Aye I will probably be heading over, only if it's dry when I get out of bed, otherwise i'm straight back under the duvet for a lie-in. I'm in Bathgate by the way.
