Get it running
Kevin
Was it easy to get past UK customes? If you don't mind telling us what it cost and how easy was it to ship over? I have attached a picture of my carrier on Horseguards Parade in London last June. We were taking the salute from Prince Charles. If you need help give me a call 07973624185 Regards Barry Watford

Snow problem!!
It would be good to see how Martyns getting on.
I saw him from a distance at Stoneleigh over the weekend, but never got to speak. Saw Nigel selling his books (great guy) 5 inchs of snow today in Watford, Nth London and everything stopped. No trains, no buses. Thinking about getting the carrier out to help the local emergency services. Or just sit on the internet. Barry

yeah from reading up they were seriously poor on the snow (roads) in any case, some carriers had the modded tracks with the big teeth every so many links........
