Thanks Chris, I am coming and could do with a hand with the Handbrake cables. I'm just wondering if I should get hold of a full set just in case :-/

Other thing is an Oil and Filter change, and petrol filter (as I don't think it's been done for a while ), anyone bringing some fuel filter pliers? Also want to repair the wiring for the outside temp sensor but not essential.

May well have a different set of LPG injectors to try but that's not essential. Most important for me are the Handbrake and the oil & Filter.

As for tools... Not really going to be able to bring my toolbox as it'll put my back out again but can bring a few little bits. I've got Johnnycboy's locking kit too at the moment which I'm sure he wont mind me bringing along

Work wise... I'm capable of most things but the back will be prohibitive. It's much better and feels pretty much normal but I've been told I have to be careful for the next few months Should be able to do a few little bits, particularly if the cars are up in the air, but not going to commit to too much

More than happy to take a wander round and advise/guide people, man a grill/BBQ, make tea etc I'll make sure I bring a teapot along... What about cups? Everyone bring their own?

I have some filter pliers I can bring along. Can also bring some electrical tools if wiring needs repair.

EDIT: Might be able to borrow a small urn if we have electrickery available. Might make tea and coffee production easier.

I will require my cam belt, aux belt and water pump to be done - I'll be bringing with me ramps, axle stands, trolley jack, and a vast array of tools.

I am quite handy with a set of tools, most mechanical work i can do myself but have never felt 100% confident when it comes to cam belts for some reason  :-/

Food wise I can bring sausages, burgers, buns - the usual BBQ stuff.

Hope that's ok?

No tools, no skills.
Happy to be a dogsbody - dont mind doing anything within reason, but if there are already too many cars, I'll drop out - no problem. Just say the word, Guffer...

[Kevin Wood]

Oh, and forgot to add compressor and air tools to the list if required. Can see myself having to get the trailer out if everything is required.

There'll be space in the back of mine (even with the BBQ and tools) - easy enough to swing past yours on the way there, I reckon, if you run out of boot Bit of a detour but you're not exactly a million miles away.

Not sure what I'm doing yet... Current thinking is that I might try and arrange an appointment with Teilo on the Friday, then probably stay at my folks in Brighton so I could always swing by yours on the way up if needs be

Ooh, is it worth bringing a front end kit with you? Or are we testing it's first...?

[TheBoy]

I have one of those electric griddle things, ideal for bacon, if that helps. Reasonable size, about 2' wide.  Can also bring some disposable cups/plates etc - got a bundle in the spare room.

Sounds as if we have enough volunteers for bringing BBQs, and my gas one is too bulky anyway.

I assume there will be a kettle available. I need tea. I live on tea.


Workwise, I really need to get my cam covers done. Badly.  More than capable of doing it myself, but no facilities at home in this cold weather.  Brrrrrr!  Slightly more involved, as a 'posh' bloke fitted some LPG injectors in the way

Limited boot space, but will of course bring v6 locking kit, and will see if I can nick Tunnie's 4 pot lock. And usual array of spanners etc from Halfords kits. Jacks might be too much of a squeeze...

[TheBoy]

Oh shit, hang on, when is it?

How much room is there in site Gaffers?

[Shackeng]

I can bring a small compressor if required. Useful for wheel removal if nothing else

[05omegav6]

I'm looking to get cambelt/waterpump done and cruise control switched on. Rest of filters/plugs not essential as I can do them at work easily enough.

Can bring trolley jacks x2, axle stands x4, selection of 1/2" sockets, including torx, breaker bars and a torque wrench man enough for hub nuts. One pair of capable hands. (Not adverse to getting them dirty either ). Willing to assist where I can.

Can't cook for toffee  , but can bring food/tea bags as required.

How much room is there in site Gaffers?

If all the bays are free then at least 8 cars at any one time, but some bays can fit 2 cars.  The pit has room for 2 cars.  There is space for parking and there is space in the yard outside for those who can hack the cold.

By the way, who needs accomodation that hasn't already got bedspace at hotel guffer/KW?  If there is enough demand I'll book some rooms in the mess.

Did we decide what people want to do for dinner/curry?  If we have people staying in the mess then we could go for a mess curry, or we could just go for a local curryhouse like last time?
