DISASTER!!!. Sorry matey but due to work I cant get any day for the first two weeks of october off. Apparantly my work colleague is the sickly sort and put in a six week sicknote! Anyway I thought I would let you know straight away so that someone can take my place. I did however pm griff a few days ago about a new jet for the gearbox so I can find bloody neutral. I will be working around the north east so if I can pop in to pick the jet up when he is up here that would be great.
Cheers
Marc
 
Rsvr05marc, thanks for letting us know. Yea feel free to pop in and pick up parts etc.

hi guys!!
im an absolute numpty!!! yes im a fool and an idiot and yes there has been a few stern words said by my good lady calling me all the tw*ts under the sun!!:jack

im sorry guys but im flying back from portugal on the 5th of october so i cannot do the monday........in the potugese branch of the family theres an important birthday if i make excuses for missin that then they'll never speak to me again:rant.......that coupled with months of sleepin on the sofa.....not a good outlook in the griffer household!!

with this in mind i can do the tuesday/wednesday no worries!! or perhaps it wouldbe better for me to move things ahead one week???

please let me know on this and i will be lead ny your good selves......i have a bit of making up to do! i promise it will be worth it!!

to give you guys some idea of what i can manage per day without goin overboard is a full service an two tune ups......

the amount of work that is proposed i would suggest is probably three days work....i will stay for that long if this is cool????


once again i apologise from the bottom of my heart im a fool (who isnt goin to get any lovin from mrs griff for a long time because of this mistake believe me!!) and i look forward to sortin this out!!

Antony i will call you in the morning to explain myself and arrange a way of sortinhg this mess out!!
Thankyou once again!!

yours humbly

griffer!!:thumbup
 
Nee bother to me like!

I'd prefer the week after though as I have to give a bit of notice for me hols to get a couple of days off if we're going for a blast too. Week earlier is too tight for hols although that is the general consensous, I'll wrangle a day 'working from home' (cough!) and miss the ride out.
 
No problem any time for me, can we have some prices for the services listed in the other posts Griff cheers:thumbup
 
sure no worries!!

set up of throttle bodies inc all remaps and CO set £40

valve clearence check £80

interim serv £195 (half day inc parts!)

Full serv £275 (most of the day inc parts!)

suspension set up.......as long ive had a couple of good payin jobs during the day then FOC! if were doing suspension set ups all day then £40per hour! usually takes around 2 hours...ish)

the whole idea witht he suspensio set ups idea is that i will do some service work during the day then in the afternoon after the work is done then suspension set ups are FOC bring a few mates !! hehe!!

see you there guys!!
Griff

Griffer awesome :lol:lol:lol
 
I can move ahead 1 week but i will need to know quickly so i can change my holidays and looking at what griff can do in one day it looks like he needs 3 days if this is the case if Anton can still do the monday and tuesday we can move to my location on the wednesday and i can put griff up on the tuesday night at my place i will check the posts to see what happens
 
Hey guys,

I can do the Tuesday and Wednesday. I won't be in all day, will be in and out for lectures, but will leave the garage open with the kettle and associated bits!

So is that cool for everyone else?

I can't do the next week unfortunately.

What sort of time would you want to start in morn Griff?

So need to know who can do what day again please chaps!
