Nick_TC Posted February 14, 2004 Share Posted February 14, 2004 Sorry that should be we've bloody done it.................... Some of you may remember, nearly a year ago today, that I announced the opening of Totally Custom, but due to financial problems it never happened. But today, after a very pleasant meeting, monies have been secured and I can announce that Totally Custom will be opening its doors very very soon. I shall be securing premises in the coming week and then will be preparing the workshop for the grand opening. I keep saying I, when in fact it's We. I have taken onboard a partner, 1 due to financial reasons and 2 because hopefully I wont be able to handle things on my own...........and not to keep you in suspense, His name is Stu Leadbetter, and is registered on here as Stu L, another MKIII enthusiast. I hope he doesn't mind this slightly premature post but I'm very excited about the future. Thanks for taking the time to read this, I'll keep you all informed along the way.
