[/quote] Thats some drive. I have just goggled your listed address and im afraid its more like 5+ hours drive mate. out of interest, do you have a near by airport that fly's to birmingham airport? I could pick you up from airport? Might be cheaper compared to the fuel you will use[/quote] I've just checked it out and I would need to drive to Glasgow (one hour) pay for parking, probably an hour and a half before taking off, an hour flying time, transfer at other end (half an hour?). Driving wouldn't take too much longer and fuel would be cheaper than the flight. Besides I bought my car new six years ago and it's done 20K miles since ....it needs exercise :lol:
I don't know if you've lived in the north of England. I did for a while and I was on the road most of the time and it can be soooo busy. Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool areas really chockers .....or at least it seemed that way to me :lol:

Yep, we have room for you mate. We will take orders for Breakfast at 9 am. So if you want a Bacon , sausage , egg what ever sandwich then make sure you are there before 9! Guess we will get on the tools at around 10ish.

15th's good for me, just put a job in for 11,12,13th so still free. See you about 8.45-9ish (hopefully traffic dependent)
Sorry can't do as some of you are aware its been dead for work round my way for the last 3 weeks but July is fully booked and August is filling up, which is good for me but not so good as I really wanted to hook up with you guys, and give my apprentice the opportunity of doing something without the fear of me whacking him over the head with the broom handle.
Shame mate. What about your aprentice? He can still come, i have arange for a range of different people to be there.
I'd like to send him but he doesn't drive he's my step son he's 21 got the brain capacity and attitude of a 16 year old including the dress sense, and if he took the train he'd probably end up in Scotland. I've lost count of how many times I've had to pick him up cause he fell asleep on the train.
