Currently mid arguing with the Americans over this hub, I'm getting the hump over it now.

Because works so busy and I'm trying to get other stuff sorted I've parked this up now for a bit, will be a while before I use it again as there no events until next year I fancy doing.

Mike :)

Lots of people selling there trucks at the moment,

Have to admit I had an offer on mine the other day.

Bit unsure what to do at the moment.

Think I need to fix it and use it.

Yeh I know you are mate, same with Richard.

Loads of lads I know from my way have sold there's. Someone came and bought bits the other day and went slightly moist over mine.

Thing is it would be too easy to sell, I know I'd regret it.

You aren't allowed to sell it. You have to keep it. It's the law. :doublethumbs:
