Finally, if you're having problems with your car, it might be a good idea to provide a few hints as to what they may be. Kind of hard to offer advice when we don't have any clue what the problem is. Just two other pieces of advice because I've had a few Heinekens... ;-) Unless you want to get a lot of spam, it's a good idea to modify your e-mail address in your web client as I've done for you above.

Err, you've hardly been flamed. More had your leg pulled. If you decide to send an off topic post to a group like this the normal way is to put 'OT-' at the start of the subject so those who dislike such things can killfile it. -- *Why isn't 11 pronounced onety one? * Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |
