Re: Stu

I've got a shit load of aluminium sheet knocking about that I may as well put to good use.

Re: Stu

Looks like this thread has turned into my blog. So much for a diy free zone, this vehicle will be coach built by me by the time I've finished :lol: Bit more fabrication progress.

Raining all day after a few days of fine weather. Land is still too wet in places. Need a hovercraft.

Re: Stu

Taylor Swift brought a new album out yesterday. My 10 Yr old daughter is mad about her so guess what has been on constantly. Don't mind her stuff to be honest. I swear if Taylor recorded a fart it would go to number one.
