snap1 Posted April 30, 2008 Report Posted April 30, 2008 Thanks NN, will keep an eye out, looks like it could be expensive! Pete I think I can make the pub tomorrow, been on a training course the whole week so far so do not get much chance to get on the forum. Looks like the same for most of us hey.
Noo Noo Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 Welder with me today I hope. Got a little new one in the end. getting second hand usually meant travelling to pick it up and I didn't come across any worthwhile between here and North Wales. Didn't want the hassle as I want to get stuck in this weekend. Umm time - Dont know TBH. If it stops raining I'll get under the thing and see what's needed under there. Crossing fingers not much. It's then a question of how much I want to do I suppose............
DjMoz Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 Who me? still around was going to try and post before you NN today but only made 7.45. Busy. Weekend not looking too good, possibly marginal conditions on Saturday midday but got to get out of a dentist appointment. Also want to look at vans in the am.
Noo Noo Posted May 1, 2008 Report Posted May 1, 2008 Well Well DM you'll go down the toilet if you're not careful. You may have lost your GURU status. Took a call from Snap last night on bar set up issues.

Noo Noo Posted May 2, 2008 Report Posted May 2, 2008 Lol noo noo just thought i would balance out the knowledge duo. Dave was prob fed up with the bar queries. the price of being a guru. You cant get fed up, must be courteous at all times, and bow to the whims of your disciples....................... Do you know you cant even try the lottery!! Enlightened ones have no need for gambling (pollutes the soul). Not sure the odd pint of ale fits in though. I'll just go kiting, on water, preceded by a good solid pumping session to get the juices flowing
Noo Noo Posted May 2, 2008 Report Posted May 2, 2008 potential beginnings of another Noo Noo scheme. I may (to be confirmed) be in the area next bank holiday 24th - 26th May 08. I'm also condifering the Friday off work. If I'm around I'll be with Little'un Saturday / Sunday AM but Friday / Monday are free for general wet activities
mark o Posted May 2, 2008 Report Posted May 2, 2008 Yep, Egypt.... oh wait I'm not going to be there either But I am down Westward Hoooo way that weekend
Spudley Posted May 5, 2008 Author Report Posted May 5, 2008 Wednesday is looking good for an after work session down at Hayling. Anyone else up for it? I am off wed/thurs so will probably go mid afternoon. Low tide is 6:47pm so should work well if the wind stays as forecast (east).
mark o Posted May 5, 2008 Report Posted May 5, 2008 Might be available to head down mid-afternoon on Wednesday, sounds like fun if the forecast stays good.
CorsaPete Posted May 6, 2008 Report Posted May 6, 2008 Hi guys, Sorry about last Thursday, not been on here for a few days as my broadband has been down since Friday. All fixed now:D Are we out this Thursday for a drink? Pete
Noo Noo Posted May 7, 2008 Report Posted May 7, 2008 Thought I'd post a couple of pics of the van every now and then showing progress. A few people on here have more experience than me in this type of thing too so comments welcome. back doors fixed. before and after! Need a tiny bit more filler (over the primer) to smooth out a couple of bumps. Sanding and a couple of coats of paint to follow!! The welder was a good buy even if I'm still rubbish at it! I'd say its well on the way to paying for itself already!!
Noo Noo Posted May 7, 2008 Report Posted May 7, 2008 Oh yes Spuds I cant make this week but peoples have a close look at week commencing 26th May. I'm up for evening sessions that week - BIG TIME!
DjMoz Posted May 7, 2008 Report Posted May 7, 2008 Looks like forecast will hold for a nice light wind evening session. I cant make it, no car, riding to work. Nice work NN, didnt realise how bad it was.
mark o Posted May 7, 2008 Report Posted May 7, 2008 Looks like I can no longer make it to the coast today, if i'm lucky i might be able to head up the hill this evening thou'... Dave might you need a lift?
snap1 Posted May 7, 2008 Report Posted May 7, 2008 NooNoo, come on who did it really! Anless your a dab hand at the filler that is a fecking good job nice 1! Going on this rate it will be finished end of the month . DM one guess, water, hot hot o dear? Is is a quick hunt for a van or are you getting it repaired? I expect I can make the pub tomorrow.
Spudley Posted May 7, 2008 Author Report Posted May 7, 2008 Good session at hayling today. Heading down again tomorrow, leaving around 4.
Noo Noo Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 Good stuff Spud. Wish I'd been there. Weather was glorious. looks like a quiet weekend to come. So more cutting, welding and sanding for me. Disappear up some mountain at some point too. Pictures are probably better than the reality Snap but my sander is my best friend. I'm hoping the sills are just a good clean up and repaint.
mark o Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 Spud, wish I'd been there but found out yesterday I needed to fly up to Scotland back at the weekend just in time for the windless sunshine... and its my b/day today.
Noo Noo Posted May 8, 2008 Report Posted May 8, 2008 oooh many congrats Marko. How are you celebrating / sulking?
