Hi there,

A friend of mine needs help from a Marina guru, so I naturally thought of Brian.
Is Brian still round?
Anyone got his mobile number?

Thanks in advance.

PS: I havent been on here for a year or 2 (still have my 75 mothballed though).

He most certainly is still around ! As excellent as ever, he is in the forum regularly.

Brian doesn't appreciate his number being handed out since he got a phone call about a MG ZS from some dimwit in the middle of the night! Drop him a PM.

I know that feeling, many years ago I was membership secretary of the Triumph Sports Six Club (TSSC) and got a call at 1.15 in the morning from someone wanting information on carburettor needle sizes for his tuned Vitesse.

He got a very short answer !

The amount of intrusion people get now from idiots who don’t think is unbelievable and made worse by Messenger and WhatsApp etc. I regularly get farmers asking about spare parts that could easily wait until I’m at work. I got a message at 6:45 the other morning when I was trying to sort things out for mother and have my breakfast, he got both barrels

Hi Jonathan, what's he after?

I'll drop you a PM

Could be worse. I once had a copper standing at the bottom of my staircase telling me the building at work was on fire. It was 3.30am, and I stood at the top of the stairs in me underpants and was not very happy that the missus had left the back door unlocked by accident! They had initially woken up the neighbours before waking me up.

My response was along the lines of what do you want me to do about it? Pee on it? I could have too. Getting up in the middle of the night is a regular occurrence at my advancing age.
