| What's the timing on your bus being finished Jay, it looked amazing a while ago........
Anyone want to look after a 1 year old cocker spaniel for 2 weeks ? | |

| Fingers and toes crossed buddy...problem is when you are doing a major project all sorts of other unknowns come up, as Im sure you know.....Tim has to work with these unknowns and he and other people doing his kind of work just can't know when they will finish something...I am as guilty as the next person for moaning about the finish date shifting....that's why, partly, mainstream garages just won't touch old cars.....you sort out one thing and find another that needs doing........its pretty much impossible to base an hourly garage rate on this moving target.....modern garages plug the cars in to a pute and that's that......... | |

| Never deal with main dealers would be my mantra, unless you got a car still in warranty.....
Problem is finding someone you can trust to work on a bus....as Tim is closing his garage ....er...tomorrow....does anyone know anyone in a diameter of about 50 miles of Stamford who can be trusted with buses....? | |
