Been lurking for a while preparing for a purchase which finally happened today.... what could possibly go wrong??.....
5.15am Set off with by Mr Ruddy & an Envelope full of £20's, hours journey to borrow trailer en-route from 'a couple of top chaps' well known to Ruddy.
6.15am Realise that trailer brakes on one side are seized on, when I fall on my ass and nearly break my arm (much to Ruddy's amusement... ) trying to move said trailer...
7.15am After struggling to get trailer onto car (and slipping on my ass again) finally realise that we are getting nowhere with seized brakes and reluctantly call the AA
8.15am AA man turns up with Jack and a hammer to help and takes approx 1 minute to sort the problem but who cares coz we are off!!
11.00am Get to place called CLOWNE (yes really..) to meet guy with car
12.10am Like what we see and deal is done
Approx 250 Miles home (with a detour to pick up Ruddy's retrimmed seats..)smiling all the way home....
More pics to follow when I get chance to take some more.. Cheers Geoff
