bishbosh Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 I need to put this, onto this: Now don't panic! The roof rack and snorkle have been removed and everything is ready to go. Only problem is I have just two arms and legs and I think I need more like six or maybe eight of each . To make matters worse they need to be at the four corners of the truck too so no octopi (or Octopuses for the technically fussy) need apply . So, are there any fine folk around over the weekend within spitting distance of Weston-super-Mare who could spare an hour or so to help me out? If you time it right there could be pizza in the oven... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

missingsid Posted April 28, 2009 Share Posted April 28, 2009 Bish, I may be in Bath for Saturday with the family and relatives so it could be possible to slip over to your side ??? I can be a sub in case you cannot get enough arms and legs? Marc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bishbosh Posted April 29, 2009 Author Share Posted April 29, 2009 Thanks for the offers (and excuses, Paul ) folks. I shall contact volunteers via pm to avoid a run on the pizza! By the way Paul, by "done" did you mean "washing" or "dyeing" :P :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bishbosh Posted May 5, 2009 Author Share Posted May 5, 2009 Well, 'tis done. Sunday saw my knights in shining armour turn up and in no time at all we had a result. No drama's no calamities (well other than Turbocharger trying to walk over the roof carrying the cage and I quote - "oh, is that a sun roof?".) :D On Monday I welded in the rear bar. Just got to dress the welds and paint when dry enough: Huge thanks to John, Dave, Andy and Chris for giving up their time to help and for the hours of p!ss taking. I scrubbed my forehead for hours but couldn't get the "please take the mickey out of me constantly" off . I know how Al feels now, and it wasn't even Tuesday!!

Turbocharger Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Y'know, I reckon that's going to whistle at speed. other than Turbocharger trying to walk over the roof carrying the cage I have a two-page thread that says I'm right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a two page thread saying they walk on other people's roofs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbocharger Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 You're welcome to head over to Bristol for a bit of a clamber around on my roof if you like Don't let me interrupt your "measuring session" with Tony though.
