Well, the wet tent went on Tuesday morning into the garage for drying before I left off heading for the EMS trade show at Fulda. Last night back at home this morning started with the indicator light - thanks to Manuel, who is breaking a A SWB near Aachen... No use for that angled screwdriver - had to loosen the bar.  Test  Some dent is left & the right wing is bent a bit. Strong british wood has caused this...  Same motif, but I do prefer the "ambiente" of the annual at avalanche  Thanks to FatBaz, Rospicer and all other guys - I missed you all today so very much  New bolts are now in place and the fueltank securing strap is waiting for new challenges 
Kind regards, Ian Sorry for my pigeonenglish. My doctor says I have to invest time in SPORT

Well done JEOH. Glad she is all fixed. You got to use some of those very clean tools at last.
Cheers Andy. I have a provisional date of next Sunday in my head. Failing that weekend after the jubilee.

Finally got round to sorting the towbar electrics, the number plate is now on the back door, that was fun to do. Well the light bit was (not) as the hinges got in the way and I ended up taking the door off to get the thing on and the nuts tight.
The two (new) trailor sockets are now on the bumper so hopefully they wont get ploughed off again (3 times was enough).
This posting may have been helpfull, on the other hand probably not... Either way, I may have had drink when posting it in which case it's probably not as helpfull as it could have been Work safe, and remember all technical problems can be resolved with a hammer, the trick is knowing where to hit it and how big a hammer to use (I often find it may also help to have a spare bit in the shed to replace the bit you have just mullered  ) Work in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you.... 'O-no' the truck.Comments on 'O-no' the truck may be left hereWork in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you....

My 2.8 shorty - now sold, and comments hereMy old dti - now sold "Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "WOW --- What a Ride!" This vehicle runs on 100% recycled dinosaurs
