[quote=stribo;488041]Lol, you must have asked nicely this time :lol:[/quote] No.....we are at friends in Wales on Saturday and are coming to the meet on the way home.....she keeps saying "If your good, I'll introduce you to MY Volvo friends" :rolleyes:
"He he he like it .... looks like ill be hoarded off into a corner to knit or something !!" Mrs V70 Graham (via e-mail)
[quote=V70 Graham;488051]"He he he like it .... looks like ill be hoarded off into a corner to knit or something !!" Mrs V70 Graham (via e-mail)[/quote] The wife does not knit lol, plus we'll have the 1 year old with us so i doubt we'll stay too long. I'd not bother this time because of evie but its quite close to us and we can get some scoff in the pub.
I've got that BCS in the car for you Steve, tested and working ;)
[QUOTE=martinrpeachey;488055]I've got that BCS in the car for you Steve, tested and working ;)[/QUOTE Cheers buddy, looks much better new plates, bumper and Volans, very tempted to keep it. I'll bring some money (I remember what you wanted for it) and get you to bung it on, I'll buy you a pint
No worries mate. With all the women-folk attending, I wonder if Mrs MRP would want to come along with little MRP...
[quote=martinrpeachey;488071]No worries mate. With all the women-folk attending, I wonder if Mrs MRP would want to come along with little MRP...[/quote] Sounds like a good idea
[quote=martinrpeachey;488071]No worries mate. With all the women-folk attending, I wonder if Mrs MRP would want to come along with little MRP...[/quote] A VERY good idea.....especially if little MRP is as handy with the spanners as his Dad lol
Little MRP thinks he's a hammer at the moment, he keeps falling over and using his face to break his fall. Minor concussion yesterday, half an egg sized lump on his forehead. Silly sod. Total petrolhead tho... [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Td3jPR7eX_c[/ame]
who's car is getting stripped this time?
well... there's a bcs to go on Dalhousie's car - some modification may be needed as it's a modern bcs going on a '95 850. and there's a cone filter to go on V70Graham's car - easy one that ;) and if I don't get time during the week, a blanking plate to go on my 16T. I'll be bringing the usual raft of tools, cable ties, hoses, bolts etc.

Is there a requirment for a clean car ? lol might have to park on the other side so not to let the side down haha
Ours hasn't been washed, as we were staying at my parents in Lymington last night, and it got filthy coming down the M3 in the rain yesterday.
Dirty cars always welcome.. Will make mine look clean!
[quote=JUDGENINJA;489702]Dirty cars always welcome.. Will make mine look clean![/quote] lol not too sure about that, i have a "mud grey" front bumper at the moment lol
Car washed this morning, and ready to rock. BUT! In-laws have just announced that they are popping round for a cuppa. watch this space.
[quote=JUDGENINJA;489699]P1$$ off! Normal service will be resumed soon!![/quote] Haha, funny as ;) Blade, normally I'd say family first but surely the inlaws showing up would be good reason to get to the vine early lol :)
4 cars here now... A bit damp out lol but it looks like it'll clear up soon (i hope)
A bit damp? It's soaking.
Just go tin from the southern soaking meet, still had time to tinker with the cars, thanks once again to martin. See you all again soon

Well, it all started off a bit damp...
But it cleared - up and a total of 8 cars made it...

Looking forward to the sparkford meet

Great first meet, nice people, good food, lovely cars.(crap whether :lol:) Good to meet everyone, Martin did a good job of getting under as many bonnets as possible. ;) Looking forward to seeing everyone at the Haynes museum meet. BTW I'll post pics shortly.
[quote=Kingsford G;490072]Cheese on toast lol[/quote] I was gonna post the "Cheese toast" youtube video but the language is a little coarse... :) so go find it yourself :)
O.K, my pics are pretty much the same as everyone elses', but thought I'd post them anyway.
Obviously have to show the P2's first, unfortunately this pic doesn't show Martin's nice new interior, or gay blue wheels.:
Then inside for a snack:
What's for pudding?
See you all (or most of you) in 3 weeks. :D
Looks like a great turnout again Martin, shame I missed it. :( See you at the next one. :)
