Default Thanks to Steve (Spec C)

Quick thanks to Steve and Lin, who gave up their Sunday lie in to pop over to mine and help get my car over to xtreme on a lowloader. Bit of a nightmare, but finally to managed to juggle the car onto the truck with a cunning combination of wheel skates, a trolley jack, the remote controlled winch and a bit of lateral thinking.

once at xtreme's paul kindly also gave up his sunday lie in to greet us and lift the car straight off the wagon after just managing to reverse the low-loader under the ramps !!!!!!

so phase one of operation "back on the road" is underway...

thx to all who helped / texted me / and offered their services like KevD and others.

makes you proud to be an ESC member !!!

Dazza (happy bunny)

no worries mate, and yep was a bit of a struggle. nearly 2 hours to get it on!!!! but really glad we managed to jiggle it around and get under the ramp that was a lifesaver. With it stuck on the ramp at least they will HAVE to remove the box at least to move it.
