Hmmmm my thoughts have gone thus:
:idea: Cool, I can see Doc and John have a pint, have a larf and visit the Triumph
:idea: If paid some wedge, i wonder if they'd mind if I stored the Triumph there
:idea: If I paid more wedge, i wonder if i could keep the morris there too
:idea: If I paid even more wedge, could be a place to work on me cars out the rain etc....

So, in all sincerity mate, don't let me intrude on your arrangements but if it doesn't fuck yer shit up I would generously contribute beer tokens for a wee corner. Have a think mate, no hardship if it don't fit in like :wink:

If it pans out mate, this place is bigger than the shed we have now, so shouldn't be a problem at all dude.
We need to have a major clearout of the shit we have already, so there should be plenty of room for cars and piss taking, and ale ingesting!

Bloody hell £75! I have no idea what they would normally cost but a second hand one I would of put at hundreds! That's awesome. I rekon if i knock the wall down between my garage and hall way I'd be able to shoe-horn one in. If the missus grumbles I'll just say it's a lift to upstairs! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Bloody hell Doc if this one has electricity you can have actual real lights and stuff...have to get a team kettle and team toster and a huge fuck off jar of team marmite...FTW!!

fingers crossed then,

ive already rustled up some sheep for u :wink: :wink:

but dont tell bandit cause he was saving them for his own perverted use....

no not that :oops:

he combs all their fleeces, centre parting, and then tries to teach them how to make welsh cakes

and more seriously if u do get it, u would be raising the bar in what we could all do, use and share

the new centre of the known universe

:wink:

It could indeed become a centre of excellence for car restoration, although obviousley the bulk of the stuff and hence work there will be classic and vintage bus related, with the odd lorry thrown in.
But yeah, this could be alot of fun!

Dennis Darts are shite mate!
