TinyBuggy (Si) is also sorted as well

Just over two weeks to go so really need as many confirmations as possible.....

Ok so I am off on hols for a week.   Please can you confirm if you are coming.

For those coming on the Friday .... weather permitting may have a BBQ at my house.  Its only 10/ 15 mins to Crowden from my house where the hostal is so I can pick poeople up / taxi back.   If the weather isnt kind then we will need a plan b.  If you fancy that let me know as I will need to go shopping when back from my hols for beer and food 

Saturday ... have a couple of routes that we can use for a nice drive depending on how people feel.  Not planning on any long drives as the hospital can be a long day.   Ideally we will meet at the hospital at around 11:00.   Then when the kids have lunch we will have a short drive into the centre of Manchester again (at about 12:30).  Then back to the hospital with a plan of leaving at around 16:30.   Takes about 40 mins to get to my house from the hospital and the pub is straight opposite.  My landlord who will look after us that night would love some pics of the buggies outside the pub.  So if everyone staying is ok with that (and again weather permitting) we will drive there and have some pics.  Then we can choose:
1) back to where you are staying
2) short drive with some good pic opportunities
3) longer drive again with some good pic opportunities

Both drives end up going past the accomodation.   I will shoot home after that and the landlord and myself will organise picking you all up and getting you to the pub... the Bulls Head http://www.bullsheadpubtintwistle.co.uk/.   Food is good.  Beer is great.  Plus we will have a minibus sorted to get back to the accomodation or people can take a taxi.

I may get online while on hols if the wifi works.  If not I will chase when I return ... but please confirm if you are comuing in the mean time.

Thanks

I'd like to come along to the hospital and to Tatton if that's ok?

I'm doing my best
I have everything crossed and hoping the rat plays ball and works..,

Tony,

I sorry to say I won't make it buddy, even with the late nights I've put in.

To be fair, today I have ended up re-doing stuff I thought I'd got right last night.

Catch up with you soon

Keith

No probs mate there is always next year. Good luck with the build..looks like your not far off now

I might turn up at Tatton as a spectator and help you shake some time and raise a bit of cash for the hospital.

Build permitting

will be great to have you at both mate

Well, in my usual style of "last minute dot com" Today I have started getting my buggy ready!!

When at Le Mans back in June it took plenty of abuse and ended up struggling to get gears and then jumping out of gears, today I think I have traced it to the 2 slightly loose rear horn bolts and the Knackered rear gearbox mountings.

The bolts are now tightened, I've put a bit more of a bend in the clutch cable to help with the side effects of the sagging gearbox mounts and things seem to be a bit better, I've checked over it all, fixed the wipers and windscreen washer squirters, apart from the lack of horn which is dead and needs replacing I think it should get through an MOT trouble is I'm traveling 100 miles each way to work everyday this week so going to struggle getting it in for MOT.......hopefully I can convince my Dad to take it for me, if not I'm sure I can get a mate to take it and then get a tax disk then all ready for the trip up on Friday 

Tony can you PM your number over to me, we hope to get there for a beer and some burgers at yours 

Keith, sad that you won't get finished in time , I've not had much time over the last few weeks but have looked in a couple of times on my phone and seen your progress and efforts and it's all looking good, will be good to see you at Tatton if you can make it
