Yes even at my age my car has been fettled by BR. Mike very kindly collected it just
before Xmas and I went down to pick up yesterday, what a fantastic drive back home!!!!

My advice to all you" Astonauts" who have still yet to have this experience, put it on your
to do list before you die, life is just too short...lol.

Finally. many thanks to Mike and his great team.

Roll on April

I'm guessing BR's manifolds and de catted. In which case an excellent move.

BR picked it up from Merseyside, interesting. Did they charge much for that?

agreed.

It's like a restaurant critic not mentioning the food.

Unbeknown to me my battery conditioner had stopped working, and as I hadn't really used the
car since the North Yorkshire meeting (back-end Oct) the battery was totally flat. After one
aborted attempt to collect the car, Mike then got the train up just before Xmas laden with battery &
power-pack and managed to get it started. He then drove back to BR to store it over the festive holiday.
This meant he was able to hit the ground running when they returned to work last Monday ( 7th. ).
Obviously these arrangements suited us both, however, it was still a fantastic service from Mike,

Many thanks again Mike.

I am too nice to be a critic, I am sure the people who have met me on this forum will vouch for
that, even Jockman (as long as I keep picking up his bar tab!!!!) lol.

When you get to Peter's age I'm afraid your postings are noted for their brevity due to a debilitating combination of a diminuation in the old grey matter and the inevitable changing of the bag.

Please be patient.... biggrin

Given the amount of bereavements in the local papers this week-end, shouldn't you be too busy
wasting your time posting on here!!!!!!
