I use Photobucket. It's not that hard if you follow the prompts. Upload pics from your pc onto Photobucket and they give each pic an url. When on PH you just copy the Photobucket url into your PH posting. So have Photobucket 'open' at the same time as PH

I'll be missing this one tonight unfortunately as I have to work tonight. Have fun and I'll see y'all soon!

[stackmonkey]

see ya soon.

I'll be there.

I'm going to have to give it a miss again too, for the 2nd week running.

Can someone pass on my apologies for absence.

I spoke with Trevor earlier and he said that the college will be shut for two weeks for the Easter holiday. The next (and by my diary, last) class will be after tonight's, on Wednesday 2nd April.

Oh my God, I nearly wet myself. What can that lift Don't answer, I've got one in the workshop.

[EmmaP]

Low numbers last night but a good session for me as usual I did the tracking which chucked up a few alarming disparities in my wheel alignment. My garage has just informed me why the back was so far out. It would seem that me being both tired and incredibly stupid managed to put the rear off-side tyre on the rear near-side and vice versa when we did the rear discs, pads and bearings so there's a lesson learnt. I got Barney's toes sorted last night so I should find that my car handles a wee bit better now.

All good fun!

Next week is the final session. Russ isn't too sure what will happen next as Carl's class is the next level and that includes :shudder: classroom based study and you are not allowed to work on your own car.

Knowing Russ he'll formulate a cunning plan to keep us all satisfied

I was giving blood in Sheffield and got caught up in some monster jam.

Maybe for the next course Russ could fail us all, so we have to resit the basic course.

I thought we'd done now.

Will keep next Wednesday free for the last one.

Are we going to the pub en masse to see it off?

Not strawberry? Remind me to avoid jam for a while. You've put me off scones for this week at least.

It was but Russ has added another week on so that Judas can use the four poster. What a top bloke he is.

I'd be happy to go to the pub afterwards but I'll need more than a packet of crisps come 9pm

[EmmaP]

So, what's the plan? Are we going for a drink afterwards?

Not sure what to do tomorrow night - so many things to do, so little time

Looking forward to seeing the slackers this week

Ace-T,

Are you coming this evening? I have CoM on video if you want to borrow.

Warren,

If i remember to bring it, I'll have the wine sample I promised.

[judas]

We'll be there tonight - last chance for getting the decat pipe on!

[EmmaP]

I think your name's been on that four-poster for a month now

See you soon!

[judas]

Both decat pipes are now on the Ferrari and it sounds bloody fabulous Many thanks to Stackmonkey for all the help - owe you several beers now and you're welcome to help lube my pipes any time

Well, very sad now the course is over. Thoroughly worthwhile, rewarding and fun Hopefully Russ can sort out another course for us soon.
