I am happy to nip up to Brightons as long as Mack is too.
I am afraid that I cannot be in Brightons before 7pm though....... let me know how this suits guys. Also depends on whether Mack can get my pads off Ed.....
Think a nice bottle of wine will be coming Mack's way for this....it seems a bit of a burden on him!
Also depends on whether you supply the biccies with the tea craig
Bob.
no probs Bob, tea and biccies and garage space available
I've pm'd you guys my address and a map and my mobile. Say anytime after 7?
cheers

Excellent, Thanks Craig.
All we need now is the Nod from Mac.
Thanks for the offer Clarkie, I say the more the merrier.... as long as Craig is cool with an invasion.

I/we still need to get the pads from Ed!
But I can do tonight and can take a trolley jack and tools, Craig can supply the internet link to SELOC Wiki page if required,

I'll presume one of you will have a service manual to check torques etc (incase they are different from mine)

I'm so much better at coffee, but I'll see what I can do with a few teabags
Biscuits I can do - as long as you're not looking for them to be homemade
See you later

I have some copperslip in the garage I think... I'll be in the house for the next hour (then I'm off to Armadale) and am not far from Mack if he wants to pick it up. Failing that, you can get a tube from halfords...
I have no signature.
