Cheers Snag thanks for the advice, have another cold beer on me. I'll
be nipping down to a local tool shop later this afternoon. Then down
to the garage to tinker on Mr Bike, whilst making frequent
interuptions to go and prepare a traditional Sunday roast beef lunch.
Then tonight I'll be firmly installed in front of the tv to watch the
F1 GP from Indianapolis and cheer on Mr Hamilton.
Cheers

Hiya Aitch,
First off have a nice warm ale on me and the same for anyone else
that's thirsty in here as it's been so long since I've been in touch.
I am living in Oz now but will be in the Uk from thursday for just
under a month if you want to meet up. Reverse to ping me
ku.oc.liamtoh@fawyffas I'll give you a hand with the drivebelt if you
like. Say howdy to Mrs. Aitch from me and Jenni
Cheers
Billski

Great to hear from you Billski, regards to Jenni and yourself from the
two of us. By the way, how are the bears?
It'd be good to hook up at some point, you should ping me with your
plans/schedule.
By the time you get here I should have sorted out a breaker bar to get
the thingumajig nut off, but if you've got the super duper expensive
............ Aw fuggit, I'm going to start rambling, it's the wine you
know. Did you see Mr Hamilton sticking it to the opposition at Indy
today? Woo Hoo.
Cheers
Aitch
