Make sure you all turn up to at least one of the others too :-D
It is a shame you can not make it Kev, it would have been a good chance to give your new Xantia a stretch of its legs too 8-)

CXM is always a good event and its usually the best one of the year for me. However, of course the ICCCR is the one to look forward to this year :-D Ive seen a potential Conservatoire entry list and its looking good!

Chris, it'll be good to see your XM 8-)
It is, its sounding like a very good event :)

The XM got a bit neglected last year due to my Xantia visiting every rally that I did, so im sure it'll enjoy the day out on Sunday :)

Franklin, I hate to say this but if BBC weather forecasts were books in a library they'd be in the same section as the Enid Blyton ones :twisted:

I saw a post earlier for parts to be taken! Jim! Where is it, mate?

Sylv and I will be making a guest appearance probably in two cars if people want enough bits. Needs to be viable to pay for Sylv to drive herself though - that's the only problem.

Also, Jim, just to confirm drunken conversation last Saturday night, you are bringing your sphere tester aren't you? Also, can you bring removal tool too please?

Drunken? Me? High as a kite on Red Bull I'll admit :-D :-D :-D Apparently if you do have one Vodka with lots of Red Bull then the two do cancel out so I'm told with some authority so I do now believe alcohol did pass my lips but with nil effect!!!

Yep, sphere tester and Lexia will be with me :wink: I'll also have my Pleiades tool with me...

I believe I also have a FCF Couriers job to do with a door...

Well, I was going to come along in the Berlingo, but we've not got to the bottom of the strange rattling yet after replacing the front spring. Very strange. Sounds like the beginnings of a drop-link (it's got a brand new Lemsforder one on now) or a balljoint. Neither have any play. It's still rattling. Looks like the whole strut might have to come out again for investigation, which is a bummer. So, I'm not going to come along this time!
