Until they read this....

Thanks, hopefully it does work and we get more competitors enjoying what is a great sport.

After years of bodging, sawing things on wobbly garden tables or balanced between chairs, I finally built myself a decent workbench today. It’s made from two 18mm ply sheets, which I glued and screwed together before successfully dropping it edge on onto my toe whilst lifting it into place 🤬🤬🤣. Mrs Stu has a bad back so was unable to assist. It’s very solid, took my not inconsiderable post Christmas weight without a murmur of complaint! Need to play around with where stuff goes, but I’ve got a pillar drill, power saw, grinding wheel and vice to play with. Plenty of work to do on the house where these will all come in handy.

Just sent a message to the whole renewals team, "stop your dilly dallying" 🤪

I've been avoiding doing much work this week, and playing with my new resin and plastic toy soldiers instead. I've treated myself to a resin model for the first time, which was a bit daunting. They're mostly a work in progress, as it's far too geeky to be allowed in the house for long! 🤣

It is a bit of a trial to be honest, just to see how it works. The roof is corrugated, likely with asbestos in it and it leaks and drops muck on things. I didn’t want to disturb it at all, so thought this was a way of sealing it to a degree. The water should run down to the back of the garage so I think I may well end up with a collection bucket somewhere but that’s better than the current situation where the are drips running along the beams and dropping in multiple places. I used this stuff from Amazon which is 4m x20m and plenty for my double garage. It seems fairly robust, and I have just stapled it in place on the beams. Batons would likely be a better option as it spreads the load and avoids tears. I was working on my own in somewhat chaotic conditions so just did my best. As I get on top of the garage better I will try to improve the fitting etc 4M X 20M 500G Black Heavy Duty... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00NAV05OM?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share I’m pleased with the bench, it has worked out well. I’ve spotted a small issue with it already though. The side panels help strengthen it and secure the legs, but they will prevent me from clamping work to the bench. So I will cut sections out of it so it maintains its function but allows me to clamp to the bench.

Ahh very nice system will enjoy seeing how it works out! definitely needs to be an incentive for a record!

Exactly right. Very simple and gives and extra dimension to our Championship. You have to beat not only WSCC competition but others as well. Only extra thing that might reward really well performing drivers is say 1 point extra for breaking the record? Any thoughts.

Hello, just for clarification that i'm reading this right, if there was a car running in an event in say 3g who was the fastest wscc competitor, they managed a 3rd in class (no one else in that class were a wscc competitor) then they'd score 7 points? Or am i really lost?

Great! Now not just one slow coach but the entire team despises me

You’re not kidding @Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman, I went to Alderley Edge last night and drove through 3 floods (completely submerged road) and plenty of deep sprawling large puddles to catch out the unwary! Not Westie weather out there at the mo. Pick you up about 7ish, sound ok? Andy

Hi Ben, these arrived today & have to say best Xmas pressie to myself since ever 😜 so happy 👍

Booked club package last night. Curley if you haven’t found out by now there is information on the Silverstone Festival website explaining ticket options. If you have a Westy and want to bring it the club display package effectively gives you 2 tickets for the price of 1. Great value weekend. Last year my tent camping pitch cost £59 at Woodlands, but there is no info on Woodlands camping yet. Happy new year everyone!

Trying to complete masonry around the weather.

Albeit I'm currently an imposter, unfortunately I'm away seeing family for the day Saturday 🙄
