Default Might be away from the forum for a few days

Looks like I’m going to be busy for the next few days or maybe a week sorting out these pesky smart cars that are in my hands at the moment, but I’d like to thank Brian for his advice earlier on the phone, he gave me some sound advice when I was hitting a brick wall

Hitting Smart cars with a brickwall sounds like a good idea

That's a bit harsh. I mean what did the brick wall ever do to deserve such a horrific punishment?

Good luck with them mate.

A wealth of knowledge is Brian - if only he lived within popping round distance!

Yes, we'd be sitting in deckchairs with the pockets of a pair of old trousers nailed to the handles as impromptu beer holders

Busy day today on Gadani Beach, run out of 9" angle grinder blades, so resorted to hacksaw and tinsnips
