Well the news is that the WSV has failed the MOT and looking to cost about £400 to fix yikes

It wasn't too bad just a pair of shocks at the front, and silly little things like headlamp alignment and 1 washer jet not working, oh and a split fuel hose that is dangerous yikes

So if anyone would like to donate smile to the cause of having the WSV and Michelle at BBWF this year it would be much appreciated.

I won't go into how she has done such a brilliant job over the last few years - and Michelle has been useful too coffeewhistlebeer but I'm sure those of you that have been the last 3 years will hopefully remember the service we were offering for free

I know its tough times at the moment, so I will stop grovelling now smile

Paul & Michelle

Sorry to hear that Paul what a p**^r I`m sure the gang will have a bit of a dig into their collective pockets to help you out after all your sterling work at 2005/6 & 7 (well Michelle`s tea & biscuits anyway!)
Hope it soon gets fixed

Cheers Steve, hopefuly getting the WSV fixed in time, it's currently sitting at the garage awaiting for the go ahead whilst I try and source some cheaper front shocks (the main culprit for failure)

Thanks to those that have emailed me with small donations, I'm going to try and make it easier for you all and just set up an email address that paypal will accept payments too hopefully tomorrow

See ya all there smile

Paul, you and you're missus have done loads for the 'cause' and its about time we raised some duckets for one of our own.

I will shove over some loot if somebody can 'do the do' for me on the interweb (Dicky!) I will drop down some loot. Can you beam it over for me??

Guys you are all stars. Big up to the Wedge Massive

Gonna have to send Michelle to Lidl to get the special bisquits this year smile along with the tea, coffee, cold cans, crisps etc for charitable donations

WSV WILL be there with a cold fridge available for the cooling of certain substances

Gonna also bring the tele (32 flatscreen) and have my video of last years BBWF playing, (unedited so far) and possibly silly films like shrek, mermaid etc for us littleun's to watch in the rain yikes

Michelle will also be running her dog creche again as both Marble and Topaz are joining in this year and Amy ?

Also have a prize of a small Vivitar Camera for an as yet to be decided competion, either guess the weight of the cake, how many ballons in the Wedge or best drawing of central HQ setup ?

See ya all there, and donations still very welcome smile
