Midlands Workshop day
Re: Midlands Workshop day
This must be the Solihull Workshop day?
Id like to bring my 'storm along for the clean out of her pipes. Providing its OK, what would I need to bring along, where am I going, and is anyone else heading from this kind of way I can meet up with?

Re: Midlands Workshop day
There's two "workshop day" threads, one in Kent (which you've just missed) and the one here, so why not have a look at those and you'll find out all about it.
Tools/
You'll need a small socket set, some screwdrivers, and if you're stripping carbs a handful of long cable ties (I'll show you why on the day

It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.

Midlands Workshop day
Afternoon all!

Cheers

Geo - Head bearing and roas ccts.
I am staying near Nuneaton on Friday night. See you Satdee
Do I need to bring anything. I'd rather not carry tools up from Pompey in a rucksack if I can help it.

Re: Midlands Workshop day
should be OK for most tools as there is not too many people, but if you can bring the small basics like a set of allen keys and a 1/4 drive socket set that might make life easier than sharing.
if I was being mean, I would ask you to bring a selection of hammers to get your bearings in with, but I guess you can use mine for a small fee
