Also, Mrs TheBoy has to donate some of her wages to some pointless charity - no choice, and done at payroll  >:(

A union per chance.....

I will continue to carry out cambelt changes and will refund any money paid to me directly if anything happens.....
No, its a random charity picked by the parent company of the company she works for  >:(

I think there is a way to opt out, but they make it too difficult to do, so nobody bothers.


I too will continue to assist other members, be it paid (ie Tech2 work, which is not for profit anyway) or unpaid.  In fact I am very keen on another cambelt day to help those that need one. After all, its nearly Feb, and for some daft reason, we always do in Feb!  Alas, I think my neighbours have put up with enough in the last 12 months for me to be able to offer to host anything  :-[

I'm no legal expert, but surely it's legally possible to have a disclaimer entered into freely and openly, in advance, by anyone participating, which does not constitute an 'onerous covenant'. If anyone objects to this, they don't paticipate.

I have available off street parking for about fifteen cars on a private car park but alas no undercover parking so my venue would be better suited to a meet when (in theory) the weather improves

I should be able to host again got a double garage and driveway for 3 cars, 4 at a push. We had it like a open garage last time members turned up, we had 2 meggas in the garage with the bonnets up, while tech2 / leccy stuff was done outside.

I have some nice big work lights (Thanks martin) that create lots of light in the garage now, I know Jamie has some too, so we can work well into darkness and still have enough light.

I will have to check again with father & mother tunnie, but we have had so much from the forum (advice, headgaskets done, items bought and sold) we would be happy to host again  :y
