Im sure Maria will run up a couple of headreat covers for you on her sewing machine Nigel ,

Not like she has much else to do to keep herself busy :rofl:

and yes Sue is actually a Mick I have known Nigel for about 7 or 8 years now
( his beautiful daughter was just a bump in Marias tummy when we first met ).

He was also the basis for Sues dad ( Nigel from Eastbourne ) which is a laugh in itself as he is about ehem years younger than me )

The scarey bit was Doc fancying Sue and offering to take her out and Matts interest in the early days.

what started out as a bit of an April fools wind up ended up lasting 18 months although I know I was almost rumbled a couple of times ( too many medically trained people on this forum).

Sue will now be taking an overseas posting for the future ( sorry boys )

hope noone was offended but with a lot of infighting going on in the club recently I hope Sue helped keep some of it at least a little light hearted.

Ah well better pack me nurses uniform away

Ahhhh - now that you have decided to enlighten us all Mick I've given you your own special rank...
Must admit I started to suspect, but you did sound like quite a tasty catch to start with!

I worry myself quite often!
As long as Mick dresses up as Su, and talks in those prim and proper tones that belie a reet filthy girl beneath, I still would!

I can't emagine Mick in a Nurses uniform, not to mention high heals 'n' leather, ! perish the thought :?

But you never know , after few a bottles of vino and the said curry, he may well transform into a 6' + ,balding nursey ! ( no affence Mick )

But his knowledge of the medical profession does concern me :lol: :lol:

Please Mick , next time use rubber gloves and some lube !!, even if it is LHM.

Whoops , a tad big !!

But never mind. :oops:

There is a small amount of surface rust pictured, but no holes, so give to get a spray paint made up, and tackle this.

Very slight bubbling on rear wheel arch, !

Can you enlighten me to where i would find the paint code ?? is it in the same place as the XM's cause iv'e not looked yet ..

Apart from that , some new anti roll ber links and two sphere's, and that will be it for now,

Cheap comfortable motoring
