Set off for Billing on Saturday morning, everythings fine for a mile or so, then going down the sliproad onto the A45 at Rushden, changed up to third - and that`s the gear its been stuck in ever since.  Got to Billing on Sunday for a quick look around and got a quote for a rollover bar, assuming there`s any money left after sorting the gearbox.  Well heres hoping its just a linkage problem or something similar.  Othewise it looks like a fair bit of my upcoming holiday could be spent lying in the gutter  :(  :(

The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes.

Remember each and everyone of us is gifted, it’s just that some leave the wrapping on longer than others

You can have a little sypathy to keep you going, but if it turns out to be a linkage then I demand the sympathy is returned (unused and in its original wrapping).

If it is a major problem then I will consider your request again.

If it rains when you are in the gutter, I will give sympathy.  But only if it rains!  :lol:

Extenuating circumstances qualifying for sympathy:
1; the gearbox wees in your eye
2. the exhaust pipe drops flaky bits in your eye.
all other circumstances will be judged on merit.
