Dates... I'm thinking either 24th/25th June, or 1st/2nd July.

Might be worth having a vacuum cleaner about to hoover up all the old orange bits as the headliner cards are prepped... if it is fine, then we can probably do the prepping of the cards outside, and then the re-gluing of new fabric being done inside - with the doors open obviously! as there will be less chance of airbourne dust etc getting onto things if it's a bit windy...

I can't make 24/25 June. That's Glastonbury time unfortunately.

Not sure my headliner will last that long! The steam I've been using on carpets etc has accelerated the sagging and it'll be hanging on my head soon. Going to have to do a temporary fix, using something more aestetically pleasing than the staples holding the liner up on the blue one.
I'm thinking some springy metal between the top of the C pillar trims, sprayed with Lightstone...

That's handy. I come back off holiday on 17th June. I'm sure the other half can have no complaints about me disappearing for the weekend if I've just taken her away for 2 weeks.

What's wrong with staples? mine is held up by staples all winter already. Nice, shiny brasscoloured staples...

The staples on the blue one, fitted by a PO, make me cross every time I look at them Ferry. They're not shiny brass though.
Went for this in the end- total time to fix 5 minutes!

8th/9th might be possible - I'll have to see what I have on.

Hi guys, I would be interested in this.
Again another one looking at getting my headlining done ! bugs the hell out of me, also the like a miss in top gear lock up from the engine.
Where abouts is it going to be held ? The hardest part for me is logging the LPG stations on route !

At Marty's workshop near Marlborough in Wiltshire. To log LPG stations on route, use www.filllpg.co.uk.

That has stumped me. I was going to have my next RR converted to LPG professionally then found nowhere here sells the bloody stuff.

Yeah, BP stations (the ones that are run in-house, not franchised) pulled out of LPG which has cut the number of stations quite a bit. In some ways it's no great loss because they were expensive but if the only station in the area was BP you're SOL :(
Of course, they'd probably still be selling LPG if they hadn't been so greedy on pricing, but there you go.

I use that garage regularly as he is the cheapest here but I've never seen any LPG pumps there.

Well, last confirmed by a punter to mylpg that it had LPG on 27th March 2017 :)
Perhaps they hide the LPG pump round the back or something?

Its visible at the front next to pump 6 on streetview? Big silver square box next to the other pump.

Helps with the right location - Filllpg has correct location shown and price confirmed last October. Though things do change.
