O.K, before the individual parts of the Humber grow-up to become Projects of their own, the remains of the Car must be desposed of.

Quickly.

I've called Smiths (local Scrappy) and he can collect it on Friday afternoon eg. 4.00pm.

I've provisionally booked the Afternoon off as It's important the thing is got rid of . . . . .

But.

I need a few pairs of hands (maybe) to assist dragging the thing out of the barn so it can be Hiab'ed onto the lorry.

Form an orderly queue.

Why ? As I was gonna be finishing at 5.30pm and we can't really take the Pontiac down to my brothers til he gets back. (You've got to show him the light thingy)

I See no problem

We should be organised before then.

The plan is to get there 15 minutes before the Hiab does, then tow/pull/push the fekker out into the yard.

Hiab picks it up, Bob's yer Uncle.

Well I Should finish work, on Friday, at about 3-3:30 no later than 4.

Then I must collect Keith, Paul, Ryan, there gear and ours I guess that would take us up to 4:30-5 if everyone has there stuff ready to load up etc.

Roadkill · « **Reply #7 on:** January 25, 2006, 08:32:18 pm »

I'll do it myself if need be but I ain't paying another £60 to have it sitting there.

Incursus · « **Reply #8 on:** January 25, 2006, 08:54:26 pm »

Well the pool car should be back at the office by 3.

Assuming its not late and my meeting with JLR doesn't run over 3pm finish time (shouldn't do)
I would be out of office by 3:30 latest Plus 30 min drive to Brackley?
would be cutting it very fine.....
If Ryan meets me at Furzton (if he wants to help

) we could theoretically be at the barn for 4pm ish if all goes to plan.

Probably with keith in tow...

The Guy said 4.30pm latest . . . I'm gonna bring a bogie (huh huh) to put the gearbox end on, then use the planks of wood there as rails to roll it onto the hardcore outside . . . .

THE LATEST HE CAN PICK THE CAR UP IS 3.30pm TOMORROW (Friday).

I May need your help after all, Art, as I don't think CHris and Ryan will make it there by then.

I've spoke to Chris . . . bring your stuff round mine (I can pick you up) and head to Brackley while chris loads the Galaxy (he'll be back after).

That is of course if you're ready by about 2.30pm ish.

FUBAR · « **Reply #18 on:** January 26, 2006, 10:29:26 pm »

I should be, i'll be at rocky's for soon after 10am and it shouldn't take too long down there, including a trip to KK

then I can get home & start packing stuff up...

Roadkill · « **Reply #19 on:** January 26, 2006, 10:36:29 pm »

O.K, so if I pick you up at 2.00-2.15pm - take your stuff to mine (for chris to pack) then go to Brackley - should be there for 3.00-3.15pm.

Giving us 15 minutes or so to shift the thing (plus engine) outside.

Can you help aswell, Art ? 3 pairs of hands are certainly better than 2.

Only if it's not too much hassle though.

No problem, Art.

We got there in the end no thanks to some bloody idiot who forgot the key to the barns' door.

Still waiting to see the piccy's of the collection. Ryan.

T'was pure entertainment.
