So jealous mate !! They are playing the Glasgow Barrowlands tomorrow night up here and it is a stonewall sell out !!:( Gotta be played near the end ? Alan...............

All the write ups say budget, obviously, quiet, good in the dry, ok in the wet and fairly long lasting. Need a pair of tyres on the rear of my Ram for the winter coming in, and can get a pair of Nexen directionals, 285/50/20 for £80 each. Alan...........

Awkward to change the alternator on ! Specially wi hands my size ! Alan...........

Anybody got them, used them and any thoughts ? Got the chance of a pair at a good price, just thought I would ask ? Avoid the recommendations, just opinions on this brand please ! Alan..........

Jaz, Would just like to add, that aint me in the mask !!:eek: Honest !:) Alan.......

Answer the door in a gimp mask and invite them in ! Problem solved !

Hey up troops, Tried me hand at condensing 20 minutes of video down to 5, added some tunes and hey presto, my first attempt at the video thing. This was taken on the show weekend, mainly rod and yank orientated, but gives you a rough idea of the sort of thing you all can do next year !! Imagine a collection of Zeds croozin up the A1 as well ? Cool !! http://s82.photobucket.com/albums/j274/bigmincey/videos/?action=view&current=EastFortune2009DONE.flv Alan.....................

Insurance will use any excuse to wriggle out of paying in the event of a claim, so my advice would be to change the details on the V5 with DVLA and then explain to the insurance its a conversion, not a modification. If your company wont budge, then its time to change companies to a better one ! Someone who is maybe more tailored to this type of car ? Good luck, Alan.....................

Thats bad news mate, its only a car right enough, but probably inconvenient to say the least. Glad no one was hurt tho as it could have been a wee tadge worse with the fuel smell being apparent !:eek: And, it wasnt the Zed. Just think, that means you will have to use the Zed more often ? Any excuse !!:) Should be a quick response with the insurance on that one ! Take care matey, Alan.................

Tis ok, but the Rams faster. Alan......

Nowt mate, sorry ! Fancy a blast in my Ram as a second prize tho ?:) Alan.........

What film does this come from ?? I dont know, but need too !! "You know we're sitting on four million pounds of fuel, one nuclear weapon and a thing that has 270,000 moving parts built by the lowest tender. Makes you feel good, doesn't it?" Alan....

Mind your language on this site ! :smash: Alan.....

Start of the next ice age mate. Not to be confused with global warming. Alan....

Many happy returns mate. A new Zed and a fresh year in front of you ! Revel in it !!:)

Dont be shy, its a required evil. :wack: Alan..........

Welcome to the mostest, bestest, badest, moneywellspentest thing you have ever had !! This forum !!!:rofl: Cars aint too bad either ! Guid oan ya. Alan........

Garth Brooks, 1st class. Never met you kiddo, but any woman that keeps a Zed as their method of chill, is ok by me !:bow: I hope events as they are now, are over sooner than later for you. If you need a time away, my wife and I always have a bit of space over here in Caledonia land. Keep strong. Alan & Fiona........

Wow ! Some of you have what sounds like, exciting/exotic type jobs ! Tis funny how all varied walks of life stalks this Premier forum. As for me, well, blue collar and black nails I`m afraid, nothing exciting. Coachbuilder. Work here; http://www.trucktecltd.co.uk/ At 47 years old, I am extremely lucky and had only 3 weeks on the dole in my whole working life ! Also worked with Geco UK, A seismic acquisition company driving a Vib, done a spell in a horsebox manufacturer, spent 4 years at Stansted Airport, Diamond Hangar in the Fibrelam shop, still have my Taxi badge and keep my hand in when we get quiet in the coachbuilding side, and do a few hours on the childrens panel ! Well, I was there once meself !:o Oh, also an active member of the Anthony Nolan bone marrow trust. Other than that, its normal. Alan..................

If you are staying around the Sharm area, no need for one. If you intend to do a Pyramid or Luxor type tour you will need one. We went last year, travelled around Sharm a fair bit, done the Quads, Glass boat, Diving etc and never had no problems. Alan..........

Dont have Windows Movie Maker on my PC. Dont know why as it should be there, but it aint. If I am wrong, please correct me, but its no longer available ? Windows Live is the equivalant I think, but only works with Vista. I am still on XP, Service Pack 3 installed. I cannot find a free Download for Windows Movie Maker 2.1 or thereabouts ?? Various sites saying they can, but when you click to download it, it keeps taking you back to Microsoft Update ?? Any help on this, or any other software available that lets you plug in your Cam and import the footage, edit it, add music, effects etc ? In my sig you have my attempt with my old Camaro which my daughter mainly did, using WMM, but she is in China, so am goosed ! Cheers, and explain it to me in idiot terms ! Not PC literate ! Alan......

Yeah, hope not as well. Will PM you the details for next year as when our club gets them through ! Not a yank based event my any means Robert, very well suited for Zeds, low level entry, very hard packed field etc. You wouldnt regret it, trust me !;) Alan.....

Happened just half an hour ago ! Picture is not for the squeamish !:eek: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: Alan................

Most definite mate. Loads of things to see and do. Lots off families there as its geared up for that. Hardly a Chav/Ned in site, which was a pleasant change ! A few Zeds would have been most welcome. Management team are excellent to organise stuff with. Mark this in your diary for next year. Alan......................

Heehee, it does look a bit outa place ! Only reason it was there is the guy that was driving it owns his own company, bodywork/painting. He has done some work to some of the cars that were there. His Chevy wasnt ready so he brung that Rover along as an advert for his skills really. Altered Image is his companys name. Alan..............
