I'm in South Shields....did auto ccts myself and if you got them from Ade then the guide is easy to follow. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Ah, Shields, not far at all. I went for the Krieger ones in the end, so they're sitting waiting for when I return from hols. I hope we get decent weather ...

Thanks partygirl, I'm sure I'll be heading that way this year. Whitby is a favourite of mine

I had never done anything like that before but managed it.It took me near enough two days rather than the time stated.Among the advice I was given was DON'T PRESS THE STARTER UNTIL YOU HAVE SPUN IT OVER MANUALLY.Good luck with it.

Thanks Wicky.

Brilliant, thank you!
