Good morning all. Won't be a moment, just got something to say:

As you guys might know from my recent posts, I've been having car trouble for the last couple of weeks. My original reason for getting a 300-series was to tow the caravan I was given earlier in the year. Once I bought my 340, I stumbled across this place. When the 340 failed its MOT, I 'obtained' a 360 through this forum (thanks Andy!), and I've been asking silly questions ever since, which you guys have patiently answered. Yesterday, I have to say, one of us went one better.

As you may know from other posts, I have had a problem recently, as the car (temporarily, I hope!) died the evening before I was due to remove my caravan from storage at a friend's house (who are moving out this weekend) and take it down from Windsor to storage near Portsmouth. Last night, the wonderful pettaw from this forum drove to me, drove to the caravan a couple of miles away, drove back home because I'd forgotten my keys ( ), back to the caravan, then calmly towed the caravan over a range of roads from M-way to single-track country nightmare to the storage place, then gave me & my wife a lift home. We got back here about midnight, and I don't know what time he got home, but it was 150+ miles of driving I believe, 60-odd of it with an old caravan in tow, and was nothing but helpful for the whole 6 hours or so it took to do it all. And bear in mind I'd never been in contact with him before until I posted asking for help.

What a nice guy!!

Just wanted to give him a mention. That's all!!

Excellent, glad the trip went ok! Andy saves the day... again....

Awww shucks don't deserve that, trust me

Anyway, it all went well, that's the main thing. And remember what I said yesterday, keep us posted with developments with the 360.

Too right, Andy is a top man, always willing to help! Nice one, glad everything is sorted out, good luck with the 360 now!
Pete

Glad you got it sorted, sounds like first class heroic action by pettaw there. Top chap.

Good luck getting the Old Beast back on the road, and as the man himself said, keep us up to date with how it goes.

It's true, Andy is a legend

cheers

James

aye, the amount of help he's been with siddy is astonishing. the suspension wouldnt have been as good otherwise

Yeah, he came out to help me the weekend after new year at the beginning of the year, to try and get my car driveable. Spent a day, in the freezing cold, taking the head of, and making it drivable so I could go and hand in some coursework!

Not to mention picking me up when I didn't have a car to get to a meet, and making my spare parts car work properly, and putting up with me ripping the p*ss out of him at times!

That sounds mutual, there certainly was some Cardwell pwnage in the pub yesterday Ah, it's all in jest

What about Fuse? ...and I don't mean out resident representative of Finland

cheers

James

What about the should-be 'In praise of Rupert' thread for running out of fuel.... twice...

Can't count the fuse, I told him it was probably that before he'd rung Andy Still wish I'd had been there
