Saturn Saturday - Monkey Burgers
 

We've got a fair few builders coming along on Saturday to collect bodywork seconds so we've decided to have an end of summer BBQ, weather depending, and dish out some monkey burgers and grub plus some gentle rides round the estate in the roadster, should be able to get a few other cars here to.

Grub between 11 and 12 - all invited, been all while since we've had a good barbie day.

Cheers....AndyH

Typical timing!

Im on one of our biggest weekend jobs of the year this weekend

I will be working 12hours both days :rolleyes:

I would have been more than willing to take a few people on gentle rides around the estate too!

Thats a big shame Mark, i was thinking of you and your monster car - as long as it was before eating a burger. See if you can put it off.....;)

AndyH

This is where your customer service shines again im gonna need a burger after a 170 mile drive ;-)

owww! im at Lro show!! not fair!

Any chance you can come & pick me up Andy :eek: :D :D

If you book in an MOT for HandyAndy at a local station we'll send him down in his roadster and just put a sign on his car saying "on way to MOT".

I'll just ring him and tell him Bonzo......:D

You got no work to do ?

:D :D

That's very kind of you Andy .... Best I get the kettle on for Handy :D

You got to balance work and chilling out now and again - just surprised to see Mark putting a full days graft in......:cool:

The cheek of it :eek: :D

I might come for the craic :)

il be there, now im back off holiday,

nath

:eek: :D

Yes Officer this is the most direct route for my MOT :D

2 sugars please Ronnie :cool:

cheers
andy

You might get away with " Honest officer, my Satnav said Penzance was the nearest station " :D :D

Hows about me doing things the true Locost way .... Climb into a wooden box & get Spud to arrange a Thursday collection :eek: :D

oh well if you said at the start there was a free burger spud :D most of the grp has got takers now :rolleyes:

btw where do you get the monkey and what does it taste like?

Sorry Baz, but HandyAndy put the thought into my head yesterday - so its his fault.

The monkey was found hanging by a rope on the Headland, somebody said it was a French spy come to nose in on the single seater - might as well make use of it.

More the better.....Shame Mark wont be here.....AndyH

:p guilty :D

any excuse for a tasty Monkey burger & a chin wag about Roadsters:cool:

Andy.....any space available to put my Roadster on the car lift ?:o

cheers
andy

Of course there is Handy just drive it over i'll have a word with the MOT station out the back and tell them its booked in for a pre MOT.

Good to see you Nathan, bet you enjoyed Monaco.....:(

AndyH

Goddamit its always on my wife's weekend off and she always got plans for me

Oh well next time maybe

Will try pop over sometime in the week to have a nosy and a cuppa

Balls..

Got my hospital opp in the morning & sue's working Saturday so can't drive me. Doubt I would be up for a long drive followed by standing arround anyway...

Shame :(

TT

Sounds ominous...

I'll be there :D What time do the shennanigans start?

Lol yeah she got as much interest in the roadster as I have in skin care products

Forecast is supposed to be alright, be good to see you there Adrian.

I'll be in from about 7ish to do some work but between 10 and 2pm sounds good with some food for about 12 ish.

See You......AndyH

Been thinking of making the journey up to Saturn and have a good look at the roadster and get some parts while there. This would have been a great time to come and meet some of you guys face 2 face. Unfortunately I am in Cardiff on a stag do! Getting too old for this, I find myself rather spending time in the garage! Is this normal?!:eek:

That's a shame Leroy, It's perfectly normal tough - you'll still have a bad head in the morning but it's for a much better cause and you'll end up with something much better......:cool:

Saying that i still do the other once a week.

AndyH

Ha ha that right Andy!

I will hopefully be in the market for a steering rack with extensions and track rods, diff brackets and possibly some mushrooms!

That is I can stop spending on my tin top, just had 4 new tyres and now needs pads, fan belt and wheel bearing. Also a stepper motor for one of the heater controls, and they are £75+ on their own! :eek:

How's the weather this morning chaps
 

I hope the weather is set fine for the open day at Saturn :)

Enjoy the day folks.

HandyAndy didn't swing by to collect me this morning :D :D :D

I hope you all had a great time at saturn today wish I could have made it but ended up working just as I had convinced the wife it was a good idea too lol but hey hoo next time

iv just got home and im in trouble! worth it though for the laugh

i made it home on fumes :o.

ive had a fantastic day, a trip out in two roadsters enjoyed a burger and a good brew

and on the way home THE vulcan bomber flew over me !

big thanks to andy & crew for the wonderful hospitality

rubbles gone and the chassis upside down ready for floors tomorrow :D

thanks again guys

I had an excellent time and I'm very pleased with my purchases too :D

And again, thank you for the hospitality :D

Thanks for coming along all that did, shame that some people had to work. As always its good to see builders and the weather was good Ronnie. A weekend trip away on the train might be a good plan, other half permitting.

The best bit of the day was to get the heart finally beating on the Single Seater, got a small oil leak but we'll soon sort that out. Can crack on with the build now we know it runs and sounds good. Will have to start it up each morning and night just to keep it sweet.....:D Thanks to Noel and Nathan for the help - will be worth a bit of cold shoulder Nathan.

All the Best....AndyH
