loserone Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 We might do a couple of nights in the Cairngorms once everything settles down a bit, I've already carried over two weeks holiday from last year.. Flat4 and aldo135 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aldo135 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Hopefully we will too. We get into the Highland wildlife park with our Edinburgh Zoo pass! Camped at Dalraddy the last couple of times, kids loved it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgyBastard Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 I’m sure we can sort something. You’ve not got anything to pick up near Durham have you? I don't have anything to collect at the moment but will have a look on eBay for cheap shite.Sent from my moto g( power using Tapatalk aldo135, Jim Bell, loserone and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brownnova Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 This would be very very welcome to do a Welsh leg of its tour of Britain with @Mrsbrownnova and I! Whenever the time is right naturally. Its doing Scotland and will do England... I’m sure a Welsh leg is appropriate. I do just worry that if I try a Visa I’ll really want one!

aldo135 Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Got the mini wheels, thanks @Flat4 and good luck with your journey! Miserable weather, it must be because I now have a working convertible... Need to charge the battery or jump start it for a wee drive but lacking motivation right now from my warm living room! Here’s a quick picture, It’s out on the flat so i can check levels after it’s surgery. Just noticed my neighbour opposite is Chris’ wee brother 5 Cylinder! I work in a school and we’ve all to make a “summer themed” quick video to say happy holidays to the kids, was thinking I should use this car for mine but I’m scared if I take the roof down it won’t go back up! @Six-cylinder did the previous owner say anything about the roof? All the times I seen it in passing it was up. LightBulbFun, Shite Ron, Mrs6C and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
320touring Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 What is the roof on it made from? I may have some leftover roof waterproofing from the golf aldo135 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have some leftover roof waterproofing from the golf I suspect that by now the roof is made of gaffer tape and brittle vinyl somewhat akin to the condition of the Dead Sea scrolls. Handle only with white kid gloves in a temperature and humidity controlled environment.

aldo135 Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 I think it’s vinyl @320touring, although it’s got a few holes in it. Long term I think it needs professionally repaired/replaced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The (very nice and chatty) lady first tried to give me the V5 back; I questioned this and she checked with her manager so she took it back, but I don't remember seeing her stamp it. Will I get a correct V5 back, the same one with a letter wondering why they've received it or just never hear from them again? Place bets now...... Answer; correct V5 received in less than three weeks. I feel a bit guilty given the three months it took you to get the correct one for the Visa!
