If a few of us can make saturday then yes... We need to get the wings on, get at least some primer on the door shuts/inside of the doors, and we REALLY need to get the welding done :!:

I was there last sat but it was a washout, I would have been electrocuted if I'd tried to use the welder :shock:

Luke? Gaz? Tony?

Ouch!
Whats the forecast for the weekend?
Not that they ever get it right, but if we take into account the 300% error factor, we can estimate that it's going to rain. :)

did i see a comment somewhere from Gaz as a no for this weekend. Correct me if i err.

Kev, think i'll be there anyway.
What's the accommodation arrangements.
Same as last time Tony?
