  1. There are a few of us heading there to meet up next Sunday, think Geo and Drift_Bear are up for it not sure who else - will be giving you a shout
  2. Are the straights at Knockhill long enough to come close to your (the cars) limits Paul?

  5. AAP Motorsports Dual Fan Kit with Shroud for 1993-98 Supra - Polished Shroud SAles Blurb:- Finally!! A fan kit worthy of the Supra!! This kit is a bolt-on to every radiator: OEM, Fluidyne, Griffin, PWR, Koyo. This kit includes 2 of the highest flowing Zirgo fans available. The stock clutch fan produces 3,300 CFM of air. The dual Flex-A-Lite fans produce a low 1,200 CFM. This dual fan kit produces 3,350 to 3,400 CFM! No more worries of overheating by installing an aftermarket kit! The aluminum shroud measures 29 x 19 x 2.37" thick. The price includes the custom shroud and both fans, fully assembled and ready to install! $399 current from MVP + del + duty £250 delivered - photos as on MVP site, I would rather not take these out of the box again but if anybody really needs to see ...... Rather than have these fans running 100% of the time I had a wee circuit built with in line thermostats - start fans at slightly different temperatures. This will become available as soon as I source the wiring diagram (although it is a very simple circuit)
  6. Don't disagree with that, as stated many moons ago I lost my eyesight twice and had great service from the NHS till this day with that problem BUT I have a neighbour who has been waiting for the procedure I have just had since November 09, she is on heavy medication and severe restriction on what she is allowed to do.
  7. yep, I tried that, no joy. The lens does not seem to be travelling freely. Tom - if I do not come up with a solution in the next few days its yours
  8. I did not have the proper form with me so had to pay a initial charge 143.33 euros which I have reclaimed off the health service here. The insurance are waiting to see if the airlines pay compensation befor ethey pay anything with regard to the volcano enforced stay
  9. I have a Samsung S760 digital camera. One of my grandsons 2 1/2 year old got hold of it today and had switched it on which motors the lens out about 15mm. When I caught him he was trying to push the lens back in. It is now out of focus permanently. Is this a bin job or is there something I could try doing?
  10. I have given the DVD to my son to copy before I hand it ove to the cardiologist
  11. Just an update on my Stuck in Sweden thread. Last Tuesday morning while still there I had a bit of a chest/arm pain which left me after about 30/40 mins. I decided I would have to get this investigated when I got home to UK. On Wednesday I had much worse pain, all of chest, back, arms and hands, especially the palms. I decided I had to go to hospital as there was no doubt it was my heart. Went to the closest hospital to where I was staying in Gothenburg which turned out to be a maternity hospital. However they bunged me in a taxi to the correct one. I was seen in Acute Dept (A&E ) and they put me on oxygen and a drip, bunged morphine in to me, stuck electrodes all over me and took a lot of blood samples. After some time - I am not sure how long they came back and said they were taking me straight to theatre. They had the paddles at the ready on the trolley so I knew I was in serious shit at this stage as they ran up corridors with me. They put a camera up the artery in my arm and had examined my arteries and heart and he said to me he was off to discuss results with his colleagues and would be back in a few minutes. He came back and proceeded to clear out my arteries and then ballooned the arteries to stretch them. Immediate relief from the horrific pain once he had done this. I got to watch all this on the monitors and it was all recorded on DVD which they gave to me before I left to give to the cardiologist in this country. Within 2 hours 30 mins of coming in to the hospital I was fixed and up in the intensive care unit where they supplied everything from joggies, pj's, totthpaste/brush and razor. This was about 6:15 Wednesday evening and about 8 o'clock the cardioligist came to discuss it all with me and told me to get up and start moving about because I was ok. I was kept in ICU until Saturday when another cardiologist came to release me. There is no permanent damage to heart or arteries, they are clearer than they have been for 30 years or more. I have no restrictions whatsoever and they said if I worked in Sweden I would be straight back to work. I flew hom eon Sunday. The residual pain from the op (which was minor anyway) has almost disappeared Would I have been so fortunate had this happened in the UK or would I be sitting on medication on a waiting list hoping I was called before the next attack. I feel I am lucky indeed that the volcano erupted when it did and delayed my return to the UK
