Filled up some boxes of stuff.  Bringing some boxes of normal wiper blades!  A rarity to find according to @dollywobbler

oh yes this reminds me, do you think any of those will fit a Model 70?

she needs a new wiper blade quite badly!, but im not quite sure what type she has/needs/will fit, perhaps @dollywobbler and @Zelandeth who have fitted wiper blades to theirs could share what type i need to look out for, I imagine its just a standard type probably shared with a mini or something

(I mean in future ill probably just ask zel where he got that period looking one on TPA, but for now ill just get any style/type just as long as it fits/works

No Aerotwins / flat flexi-blade wipers? I was thinking of trying one on the CX.....

What size?

Big single blade, I think. At least 24", possibly up to 26" - could use 6cyl's CX windscreen as a rough guide.

Bring Henry Hoover attachments please! I can't find ours, but I would like to finish vacuum cleaning around Dolly's engine bay and especially the ventilation hoses

Got the perfect thing for that! 

Can you bring your Henry though? Mines back up in the loft now... 

Although saying that I'll have enough working vacuums on me that we can sort something out!

Because PSA you'll probably not get far with a generic code reader.  You'll really need Lexia/Diagbox to get any useful information most likely unless it's a really basic generic code.  Sadly not equipment I own (not yet anyway).

I have pukka PP2000 but, sorry, I won't be at FoD so that may not help

Whereas the slacker that was aiming for 15:00 will be there about 17:00 ?

Is it as MENTALLY Windy as it is at my house up there? 

[Andyrew]

If it is I assume any shitters stood near the gold gamma currently look like this

Good start and then there was our low budget remake of Ronin!

But where was Sean Bean?

[bub2006]

Now that is a shame seeing as I have a blue 406 saloon. Just needed to make up some chicanes with random cars.
