That could week be an earthing, battery or alternator fault with so many different warnings at the same time.

Good luck anyway, as they say the Pan is the new 928 :D :D

I'll give you a shout when we return from Corsica with the car!

Is there a chance we'll see it on club night at the Novello?

Looking like Wednesday will be the handover day, missing the monthly meet by a day!!

I'll be down at the BBQ on Sunday with the boys though as long as it's not peeing down.

Not today again, getting a bit p155ed with this. Not a good sign the secretary calls me now rather than the guy looking after it.

Well I hope you're not drawing from the same patience pot that I was using because I'm afraid I used it all - there must be others though!(?)

Patience I can do if I'm told accurate information, if they told me I was collecting Friday and gave me the reasons that's fine. I'm annoyed with being told one thing whilst they do another and the fact that my time is obviously valued at less than theirs getting the secretary to ring me with cock and bull.
