haha
you lot kill me
The good news is all the dirty work is done and Gerry is back where is belongs and Burt is next to him .... feel so much better knowing Gerry is back in his OG cave ....
So things have moved on well and bert is off to the Trimmers on Monday .... Claire said she would happily have done Burt but I know how stressed and busy she is and its would have been 100% unfair for me to add to all her stress with Burt .... So off to Dave The Trimmer he goes
Wheel alignment all done ..... just had the front straightened up for a quick fix .... so its not a complete monster to drive until I get a four wheel alignment done
He will go to Dominic at ( DG Auto services ) in wellingborough who looks after Gerry for me ... his a wizz on all air cooled things ... The only person to work on Gerry with the servicing work... Dominic will give him the once over and check my works ok plus I will get Dom to do a four wheel alignment as he the man .....
air ride all in
and a family road trip to cover a few shack down miles
some trips to shops for milk ... or was it beer ... can't remember ......
So tomorrow Alex is popping burt onto his trailer and taking him to Dave The Trimmer .... Dave said he want him for three week .. so I got time on my hands to get all my jobs done that have built up over the last year
Get some brownie points in ..
and for those that are thinking who's my number one .... it will always be Gerry .... !!!!!!
Over and out peeps

Hi All
claire made me a cover for Gerry from two cover that were too small ... so at least all the car cover match .... OCD box ticked
did a little photo shopping on Gerry and popped it onto FB .... coursed a stir with it .... made me giggle
I must say i though i did a good job of it
I love Gerry just the way he is ... usable and practacle so slamming him will never happen .... but it did look cool
I see the biult thread is nearly at 470k hits ... so I'm guessing the threads helping people in lock down and being usful to people ... thats good to know
Well i've been off work now for 4 weeks and i'm been keeping very busy doing all the jobs that I've been putting off your ages .... but I'm missing mates and faces ..... and beffo missing camping at the AGM
Stay safe peeps
Chat soon

Thats a Shame !!!
I see back in the thread that all my photo now have photobucket lines through the middle
even though I've not added any pics to my photo bucket account for years and years .. it now says im over sized in my photo storage .... and have to pay £6 a month to upgrade ..... madness !!
