FTO Working Bee

We discussed on the last cruise, the idea of getting together at some stage for the express purpose of working on our cars. Everything from Helping MelStar with her carseat covers, to installing angel eyes.
Obviously many heads make the work easier, and for those without a clue, the experience of us who have already done it will be great.

So, the plan was to get together at my place, on a Saturday, and all work on our cars, then a BYO BBQ for dinner, and a few drinks if you are so inclined (I'm definately so inclined).

We were thinking of this Saturday but there is one major limiting factor, and that will be the weather, as my double garage is... well... full, and no-one wants to work on their cars in the rain.

With this in mind, i'll keep an eye on the weather forecast (currently forcast for rain this Saturday :cry: ) It may be that we will have to postpone to a finer weather weekend.

I would just like an idea of who is planning on coming, and if this weekend is a washout, when is a good for you ?

I think the following weekend is a long weekend, and I'll have to check with "she who must be obeyed" to see if we have plans.

Oh, and you dont have to have work planned for your car to come along of course. :D

No probs Steve. As I said, I'm keen, so let us know what's happening. I'm booked for next Sat, but might be OK after that.

Well, next weekend is a long weekend, so we could possibly do something on the Sunday. Can still have a few drinks that night, as Monday is a public holiday... We have no plans for the long weekend 8O

No worries Phantom.

Yeah, not happy with the weatherman. Saturday would have been quite suitable (except for my hangover from Friday night lol). Oh well, we'll go with this coming Sunday then (today week).
