That last sleep is going to be a bit short ! We normally catch 2pm ferry leaving here about 8am but we are booked on the 12pm ferry so will need to go earlier. If you are sailing overnight you will have 1 less sleep at home ! Once we've got Manby over then its "clean out Lenny time" and start collecting things together. Very Happy Very Happy

Nearly ready? Vehicle-wise, haven't started! affraid

Wayne and I have been road-booking this weekend, have to admit his effort is a whole clearer than mine. You'll still get lost of course cheers cheers cheers but that's par for the course.

We've also been sourcing some interesting trophies this weekend. You'll like them too, something different.

Going well all an' all.

Not at all, it's English for: Time enough Smile
In other words: easy job. Changing/ rebuilding an axle isn't more then a days work. ( providing you don't turn of the bolts as I did)

I don't really want to tempt providence but I am not expecting too muich more to do on Lenny. I have some new brake pads for the back and I intend to fit the new front hub caps Kieran sold me. Take off and grease both prop shafts and check the UJ's. These were fine when we went to Holland but I had a fairly aggressive and very wet/muddy weekend at Holymoorside recently so best to make sure. I've already changed all the fluids and filters, taken off and cleaned the rad and intercooler, got all the lights working and checked the timing.
Oh yes, I need to adjust the handbrake then it should just be clean and polish.

We have a last run out this weekend to Manby so thats the last chance for detecting funny noises etc.....

I hate this stage because I still have time to do stuff but can't think what else to do. Pretty soon I won't have time to do anything major so its just fingers crossed - but then its always the same just before a big trip isn't it? :rabbit:

Indeed it is.
Apperently the state of your car is ok. so no need to do many things. Mine was terrible would't pass the MOT. Bassicly I don't dare to let anyone else drive it. If you chance your gas the car goes everywhere but straight. With al things to be done there's no time left to build in new chairs. Leave that for the bext rally as the bodywork
