Greetings yarpap. Cold and damp down here in Southampton too. Painted my workshop floor this evening and was glad to get in for a beer. I'm an ungifted amateur, looking to rebuild a rusty old Austin A35.

That'll be down to those ****** supermarkets constantly putting the thumb-screw on suppliers... we should all stop buying from em! Deal with a manufacturer that supplies Asda (amongst others) with Lemonade... when the buyer from Asda comes round to 'negotiate' a deal, he has to "count his fingers after shaking his hand"!
