Heading home now after our latest Scotland/North East trip over the past 5 days…
* Thursday – Gosforth
Cambelt service carried out on Jane’s TF 160. Lovely to Jane and Graham as always, now they’re all set for their next adventure over to Italy this summer.
From there we headed over to Lockerbie for the evening.
* Friday – Clydebank
Full clutch replacement carried out on Aldo’s TF 115. Good to see him again, and thanks for the Tunnock’s and teas!
From there we headed up to Aviemore for the evening.
* Saturday – Aberlour
Both wishbones replaced, underfloor coolant pipes replaced and full cambelt service carried out along with replacement of the front pads as the ones on the car just fell to pieces when removing the front hubs!
It was lovely to meet Ronnie and Lesley and have a chat while we worked. From there we headed down to Scone for the evening.
* Sunday – Kilsyth
Slave cylinder replacement and free off of the clutch release-arm on Colin’s TF 135 Sprint, plus replacement of the drivers door handle. He had started to replace all of the suspension bolts, with one shearing off so asked if we’d replace the rest, but after a chat advised he’s probably wise to leave them unless he’s planning on fitting a soft-ride-kit.
Great to see Colin as always and meet his beautiful woofer Luna, with big thanks to him for bacon butties and a bag full of Tunnock’s!
We then headed down to North Broomhill, near Morpeth. As our hosts were not going to be in until later in the day we made a call in to Dunbar for a cuppa and an ice cream. What a lovely little harbour town.
* Monday – North Broomhill
All four spheres replaced, with a refurbed set, on Kevin’s Trophy, along with a minor service. So that’s them all set for many of their forthcoming adventures planned this year.
Really great to see Kevin and Amanda again, with big thanks to them for putting us up, and always nice to have fusses with their fab woofer Monty, what a character.
A busy, but productive time away, with many warm welcomes and fab hospitality, and some very nice weather too, which does help. – https://ift.tt/NfPpJ3E
