At this juncture let's keep this thread concerning Nick please.
Very well put Pete our thoughts should be with Nick and hoping that he and his family are ok and that we hear something soon

Speculating that he might be having trading dificulties is not good as this could affect his buisness for the future

I have been contacted by Pete, one of the club directors. He tells me that a complaint has been made about the post I made earlier. I don't wish to cause any upset to anyone at Austin Garages or within this club and that was not my intention. I have therefore deleted the post and I thank Pete for bringing this matter to my attention.

It has been a while since I last visited Nick and Jean at Austin Garages regretfully, but anyone who knows them both knows that they both go the extra mile, then a few more on top for their customers. Like a lot of members and traders on this forum, we are lucky to know them. I hope they are both OK.

fair to say Austin garages are of very high standing but things are not currently well so we need to wait for things to get better for them . a matter which is beyond our control

Thanks for the update Stephen. Time will hopefully lessen the pain and make the good memories more bearable.
