Hi All...Just need to say thanks to Paul Bottomley for taking the time to chat to me earlier this evening and fill me in on the Club.

Membership form is now in post and now looking forward to getting to know everyone.

Cheers All,

Laurence.

Your welcome chap.....

Welcome Laurence to the mad house. Well done Paul. By the way Paul, have you had any applications from Southern Ireland, Northan Ireland and Wallsaw in the West Midlands.

Welcome, good to see a new face. Which model of viva do you own?

[laurence]

He He...Mad House I'm used to

As to which model I own...That's a slight problem...I haven't got myself a Viva yet...Hence joining the club to get this remedied...And quickly I hope.

[psl]

what do you want? I`ve got enough sitting in the barn HC 4 door, 2 door, tax free, running, rusty or just plain rotten
All projects saved from the banger boys, just gagging to be rehoused, well before i get rehoused

[laurence]

I probably have the same wish-list as most others..A solid, running and tax-free example of an HB or HC would be lovely.

Mechanical aptitude at the moment hovers around ground level but I'm sure that may well change after living with a Viva for a while

[psl]

O bugger another sucker for punishment (new loving owner) needs to be found then, *Bleep*!

[laurence]

He He...I'm sure there are a few victims..Err...I mean prospective owners out there with a tad more experience in this than myself.?

[AUTOMAN]

Experiance. The constant scraping of fingers untill skin peels and blood comes out. Use of words mainly of a four letter variety as spanners slip or hammers miss their target. Frustration as metal changes to rust overnight. Trying to locate a rare part that takes months and when finaly found, a long line of voices say, "why didn't you ask me? I have loads in the shed". Now that I have told you what experience is, you have all you need to find a viva victim and do one up for your self. If I can do it anyone can. The cars are so simple to work on, all you realy need to know is how to ask a question on here or read a book. Those of us with nice viva's usually have a project on the go and once you catch the bug, you just can't shake it. Clean cars or rusty ones it makes no difference to us, the only thing we ask or insist upon is that you enjoy yourself.

Ian,
Chairman.
