I won’t be around much for the next two weeks

Mickyboy · 30th October 2019, 15:18

Just letting members know that I won’t be actively trading for the next two weeks, as we have multiple vehicles in the garage at the moment of our own need work doing like clutches/steering racks and various other things so I’m going to say for the next two weeks I won’t be able provide any of my usual services unfortunately, until I’ve got through this backlog of work.

Ya big tart.......doing your own stuff isn't allowed

On the other hand, like Zammo once mused....."just say no"

Well I’ve been doing this today mate,

I bet you can guess what I doing, and before that I had this on the ramp for a inspection service that required new front discs/ pads handbrake adjustment and rear control arm replacement

After this I’ve got another 75 to get on with that will require new trailing arm bushes handbrake adjustment and another rack etc, just wish I could get on with my own car, but that’s family for you mate, once they know you have a ramp they won’t leave you alone lol

Yeah I hope all the work goes smoothly to, but unfortunately as you probably well know Andy I’m sure you’ve been there and done that a simple job ends up being a pain in the a+^e

I know mate but at least I’m in my workshop with the heating and the fourposter ramp so I shouldn’t really complain should I, good to hear from you though Mike how’s those miles coming along still creeping up, I think it’s absolutely fantastic that you’ve gone past the 400k what a warrior

Funnily enough Mick Big Ron is the only one still going strong - Julie's car needs a thermostat coolant pipe O ring, new droplinks and the service finishing, me mum's Astra has a few problems, my Freelander needs the brake pipes and a rear diff oil seal doing for the MOT next week, and the daughter's Partybus (miniature horsebox I converted for her) needs a new reverse gear cable.
