Hi Chaps just in case I have trouble finding you guys on Friday evening can one of you call me on 07973 266782 so I know I have hooked up with the right group and not some deliverance dudes. Rain or shine I will be putting the Parsun 15hp through its paces cant wait for it. I will bring up some Strongbow's as well.
