They never quite reached the depths of the Rover 25 though, which actually lost it's wheel arch liners by the end.

They caused more problems than they solved judging by the rusty arches.

Predictably enough. It must have been horrible to be a diligent employee of MGR in the Phoenix years, watching them rape and pillage the company with no concern at all for the customers or product quality.

A quick update; The Lawyer has completed his work. Very very few changes to be made (phew), the one that amused me was that I am not allowed to call Lucas "the prince of darkness" in case it upsets them and that a comment I made about a Jamie Oliver recipe is libelous. hehe

Kickstarter pay me this week or next, then I can start the printing process! woohoo
Let us know when it comes onto Amazon as I'd like a couple of copies

I have ordered the book via the Kickstarter site but have moved. How can I change the address for delivery?

They're ready, I'm going to send them out at the same time as I send the print copies, so everyone gets the book at the same time.
Aye, I had an email a day or so ago to explain. Thank you smile

Hello. I believe you can update your details in kickstarter, I can see a message from my side that says "backers can still change their address". Can you try that, but if it doesn't work, email me with all your details? I have hundreds of backers (hurrah!) and "it's Dave off the forum" won't help me find you on the list. Let me know if you get stuck, ta.
<shrug> Give up. I have sent you a message.

I've had to go outside of my office as I'm literally crying from laughing at the snippets part.

I've just ordered the book from Amazon, can't wait to get it.

They should be dispatched to me (printer is in the US) on/around 22nd September, then I need to sign each one, repack it, and fill the village postbox. I'm aiming for the end of September, per the original plan on KickStarter. Weirdly, Amazon say it can be ordered now for a 1-2 day delivery, I can't get my head around that!
Brill.
