Well whats stopping us (Incase you guys are unsure of my sites Website and Graphic Design – DWSDesigns – Essex Websites)

If we got space and the domain then there is no reason why not. Would it be worth running it as a .php scripting site? That way we could all update remotley without having to run an FTP client...

Well depends what we want on there chaps! I would prob say for ease a Wordpress site! But that depends on do we want a forum or anything of the such?

Graham that Metro was an awesome first car. I bought another a few years later (a GTi too which i lowered, stripped out, recaros etc, was fairly rapid!) but the mrs of the time hated it so i had to sell it lol
I was a member of the Essex Greenlaners facebook page. I deleted it in the end as the pics and vids they put up were mostly off piste and they didnt seem to care at all so i didnt wanna be associated with it.
I think a sensible facebook page might be the way forward. Surely an EMM site will just be the same as this to the extent of us chatting. Its not like we have a shop or premises for people to visit. Facebook page you can easily add photos/vids, tag people/places etc?

Also a quick shout to Mike or Chris as youre both useless with youre mobiles lol will you be about this afternoon? Dean needs to return a big 4 wheeled metal thing that kept following us all day yesterday....
And he needs to supply the agreed hire payment of sucky sucky!

Facebook seems to work well. The Brentwood club have a page hand it seems to work well.

well there we have it i think a Facebook page at first then if we decide on a WEbsite we can always link the 2

Treated myself to some new tools yesterday and to my surprise they arrived this morning


So when this hot weather dies down a bit I can Finnish off the wheel bearings without breaking a sweat

Also here's a wee pic of the Landy with her bits bolted on


So all this hard work fixing things we have all been up to,I think we need to arrange a day to go and play

Me and Mikey have been playing on his new off road testing site at his workshop.





And on a side note, Mikey turned up at my house last night with this.

I think Clive might be right, Mikey what ain't you telling us
My 90 will stil beat it thou

Nearly finished

Floor to paint and access control for roller door to fit and a few security posts and we'll be good to go. I've been sooooo busy just lately. With a workshop closer now hopefully I'll be able to get the disco sorted quicker.

That looks like a great workshop Mathew.

Is that in the same place as the last one or have you moved far?

Moved to the other side of town. Cleaner, cheaper and just generally nicer! I was struggling to get low cars into the old unit with the ramp, they'd just bottom out

Only good for landys then.
Is it nearer home for you as well?
