It seems the third Sunday in the month would seem to suit most so lets go for the 15th.

I'll be there and I know several other members including Rich, our star with the spanners, will be there.


Please be aware that regional meets are not official 75 & ZT Owners Clubs meets and as such are not covered by the clubs public liability insurance. Also the Owners Club take no responsibility for the meet in any way.

Shameless bump.

All are welcome :grouphug: :cool: good pub, great meals and company.

Cheers

Au contraire my good man ;) as you know I arrived for the last Sunday meet courtesy of Frank Incensed in his lovely Firefrost diesel auto tourer :p: .

Now drops to a whisper - don't want to annoy some - wouldn't mind a diesel auto tourer myself :getmecoat:

Jim,

I aim to be there! Can I ask for some help configuring a DDin unit? I've just fitted such and can't get the DVB-T to work. Are you familiar with such?

Any member going to meet who can give any help in connecting my FBH to turn on car heater via heater relay,I have T90,any one know what else is needed,winter will soon be here,:bowdown:............Tom. P.S FBH is fitted and working,just need the T90 to give the signal to the car heater from the FBH.

[James.uk]

Not sure that's worth doing really.. I just turn the heater on when I get in and get instant heat anyway.. :shrug:

Thanks to Starman..:bowdown:.. I have a remote that turns my FBH on when activated.. The remote that is, not the FBH, that needs to receive a signal from the remote first innit... lmho... :D:D:D

Hi James,I have the remote that can turn the FBH on,but it can be programmed to bring on the car heater which can defrost the car before you get in,this is the facility I am looking to fit .................Tom.

[James.uk]

Sounds good, as long as your batteries in good condition..... :o

[rich17865]

Will there be any new members coming this Sunday? Or does anyone need anything doing? Or should I leave the tools at home this time round?

Leave them at home & enjoy a drink, I owe you one! Forecast for Sunday is good, but that proves nothing I guess as so was today's & it's not stopped persisting here.

[vindaloo]

Oh well, Sid's sneaked a job in whilst I was typing.

Good ole Sid :D

[rich17865]

Sid, I was looking at the catches, I think I might be able to do it with the bumper on!

EDIT:

I am feeling a little more summery at the moment, might go for a lager!

Is there any end to this great man's altruistic talent? :bowdown:

Weather looks set fair too - wouldn't want that pesky rain diluting your refreshing lager would we!? ;)

Oh and if anyone has a spare Harmony radio, please bring it with you, we can have the half hour haggle for it... (mines kaputted) ... :o

The only thing that works on it is the traffic news... lol... Seems they don't like having coffee poured over them, makes all the lil buttons stick...................... :o :o

If there is some output and it is just the buttons stuck, I might be able to do something with it??

Failing that I am removing the Sony radio from mine, some aftermarket jobbie if you would like it.

[James.uk]

Cheers Rich. I think if we can get it out a good wash might fix it.. Getting it out is the problem, I dont have anything that fits into the thin slots... :(

[enginuity]

Late shout just to say I will be twoddling along (sans Rover/MG vehicule) but in something RUSTically French.;)

I'm sure I've got the correct radio removal keys in my tool box, I'll bring them with me, if not a cut down plastic card will do.

Don't worry though it won't involve removal of any wheels :getmecoat:

Brilliant afternoon as ever, thanks to all that attended.

Looking forward to the next :grouphug:

So much so that the handful of pics I took have too much contrast between the light and the dappled shade under the trees. Jim brings the sunshine with him now - instead of his camera:D

Cheers for a good afternoon everyone, and thanks for the pint Enginuity, I'll return the favour once you settle on either a ZT or a 75 :}

Jim, am I ok to use the pictures you've upload for the new NW OC site? I'll hopefully get started at the weekend on it.

So far all I have done is a new logo bar (that needs to be re-sized)

.................................................. .................................................

Right this meeting (Robert mooted)..... Proposed date:- Sunday the 19th of August 2012..

I will be at the Romper Nr the airport at 12-30 (Noon) departing at 12-40 to arrive at the Hollow tree at one PM (usual time)

Leaving the Hollow tree in convoy (Robert leading coz this was his idea innit :p:) at ten past one PM.. Or 13-10.. In metric.. :}

Approx arrival time at the Pier in Colwyn bay 10 past two pm... Metric = 14-10..

On route, I will drive through the McDonald's car park near Mold to collect anyone who may be there that wishes to join our convoy to Colwyn bay. I will then catch the convoy up again... :D

We can sort out the Great Orme details on the day.. :} But it would help if someone could find the postcode for the Café on top of it in case we have no local guide...

If there are any questions, comments, rude remarks etc etc please address em to Robert aka Frank Incensed.. lol... :laughing2:...

Did I miss something? no Hollow Tree meet in August?

Sorry Rich, not had chance to post yet.

I think the plan is to still have the meet at the Hollow Tree on the 19th, however James has organised a run to North Wales

http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?p=1061223#post1061223

and anybody that wants to join in can do so, but those that do not can still meet at the Hollow Tree.
