  1. Wasnt aware of anyone in Shetlands with a supra, possibly just a visitor (obviously with plenty of money - if he can afford the round trip ) I'm sure my mates would have told me if there was one that far north - not the kind of thing you can hide in Lerwick Cheers Ian
  2. http://Documents and Settings\ian johnston\My Pictures\MUNRO CLIMBING\Ben Vorlich (Earn)181009-1.jpg Myself with Mollie (11yr old border collie )
  3. Was it Lerwick or Aberdeen side ? I was going to take mine up for the Shetland Vintage Car Show ( ok I know the car isnt a vintage yet - BUT I AM ) , but your boat fares were to dear !!! Cheers Ian
  4. Congratulations to the both of you in producing something special. Cheers Ian
  5. How you doing Stevie ? I heard you had a major incident with a cow ( the 4 legged type ) and that you were off work for a while. Hope everything is fine now , see you at a meet sometime Cheers Ian
  6. Ah , thats makes things a bit more problematic !! I can understanding George's problem in trying to explain these calls to current wife cheers Ian Ps IanW good luck if your considering the big hitch
  7. George - just marry her mate - that'll stop the nuisance calls cheers Ian PS Or get IanW to marry her instead !!!!!
  8. Remember and watch '' Deliverance '' before going on any canoe trip. Squeal like a pig son !!!! Cheers Ian
  9. Down the Caledonian Canal is a good trip - did it about 30 years ago- but still remember it fondly. The book '' Scottish Canoe Touring '' published by the Scottish Canoe Association , is full off great info if you wish to paddle the rivers and lochs - some very remote. Cheers Ian
  10. It possibly should take about 10mins each , but it took them over 3 hours , they had the whole front spoiler off - to find that it is only 3 nuts holding the lights in !! I had never even looked at the job - but from reading from this net I knew that the front spoiler didnt need to come off. Cheers Ian
  11. I got mine from Shields Toyota on the EK bypass , about 3 years ago and they were about £260.00. I got a quote from them for £40.00 to fit (which I quickly accepted ) as it took them 3 hours and stripping off the front spoiler - which wasn't neccessary. The chief mechanic asked me how to do it !!!! Cheers Ian
  12. It would be interesting if someone would start a poll on the most hated professions / jobs. Then we could see how many club members fall into these hated occupations Cheers Ian
  13. Looks like a great turn out and presentation of beloved vehicles. Well done everyone on getting best stand award. PS Eve you look even more lovely than ever Cheers Ian
  14. George (Geo), seems like your getting some competition from the 2 above bodybuilders. cheers Ian
  15. wouldn't we all Ian saw my second Skyline Gtr35 yesterday - wouldn't mind one of them as well Cheers Ian
  16. thanks very much guys for the helpful websites. the fightback back for justice begins - the worm fights back. that Martin Lewis website is full of useful information. thanks again Ian
  17. Does any member know of a website that can give assistance / advice on a disputed parking fine with the local council cheers Ian
  18. thanks a lot , but i think my mates finances are a bit tied up at the moment. cheers ian
  19. silver, with red calipers - looked like an n/a. cheers ian
  20. God that was a quick reply Ian. Not for me though a mate may be interested though. By the way how are you doing ? We'll have to get the boys together for a run soon , now that the better weather may not be too far away. Catch up soon Cheers Ian
  21. Noticed this for sale in Glasgow garage. It has a club sticker on it, so I was looking for any history / previous owners. Cheers Ian
  22. Not always neccessary to replace complete boiler - depends on the general condition of boiler , ie how often it is serviced etc. If the boiler was in not to bad condition then replacing flue is probably the cheapest option. We replace 20yrs + flues regularly because the boilers are in reasonable condition for age. However if you are going to replace boiler then you could go down to B&Q and get yourself a Heatline combi for about £400. Being a service engineer for Heatline (plus other manufacturers) these are very good boilers for the price - the parts used are exactly the same as more expensive boilers ie Honeywell gas valves, Grundfoss pumps. The difference is that they are put together cheaply - in Turkey and are owned by Valliant. For reasonable mid range priced boilers, we use Sime. Have been using them for about 12 years now and havent had too much trouble with them. Also the Halstead boilers are not too bad a bit more expensive though , but like everything else in life are easy too repair if you know what you are doing. Cheers Ian
  23. Looking great George - but I guess ther aint much else to do in Kilwinning !!! hope to catch up at a meet during this summer ( if Ian W ) will organize one. Cheers Ian
  24. The best site for tuition that I have ever come across is - youtube/ justin sandercoe. He has video tuition for beginners and also for the more accomplished guitar player - it starts at how to tune the guitar, change strings etc right through to lead riffs for Pink Floyd. Give it a try Cheers Ian
  25. Eve's is certainly looking much better without the broken plastic and tyre marks. (lol) cheers Ian
