The 30th sounds good to me it gives me a date to aim for getting the truck back on the road
I would prefer a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy.

Looks good, can I bag the next vacancy please? Coming from Bzn so it's not that far lol.

Cheers....

Apart from the normal 'walk out gear' and a fronty of course is there anything in particular we need to bring along?

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.
