Big Big thanks to NZ_M3

While over in New Zealand on vacation fired him a PM to say i was local.

Invited me round to his for a Coffee and some well needed car talk

Cheers Tom you are a Gent

A couple of Very Very nice cars you have there and a lovely pad.

Thanks for the Hospitality and hope that if you are ever in the NE of Scotland i can repay the favour.

Cheers,

[sailorbaz]

That's class, good man Tom. Very hospitable!

Good to see a bit of CSL Register liaison going on over the other side of the globe

[NZ_M3]

You are too kind Paul!! Hope you didn't mind standing around the garage for about an hour and a half just talking cars Always nice to meet fellow enthusiasts!!

It was a pleasure having you and your mate around to talk CSL and cars - it made my Saturday morning! Thanks for driving up from Hamilton!

Hope my recommended shopping mall for the wife and daughter didn't put too big of dent on your credit card

Actually I offered a 7-Up instead of coffee (my coffee making skills really just aren't up to par with the abundance of cafes just around the corner!! Much simpler to just drive to one)

Have a good trip home Tuesday!! Hope you've enjoyed New Zealand and perhaps see you back here soon!!



And should any of you other lads or gals drop by my side of the world, more than welcome to come track me down! I'd be happy play tourist guide or at least a tourist info centre And if you really need to crash for the night or two, and you don't mind sleeping next to CSL parts then by all means let me know

Agree mate, very nice gesture, always good to meet new people let alone like minded people

Thanks and glad we could make it. We had to pop in past the Sky Dive place and pick up a DVD from the previous day so managed to tie the two things in.

Hope to be back soon!!
We spent the last couple of days looking at property so you never know. All depends on whether or not i can get a rotation out of Aus with work. If so then we can base ourselves in NZ.

The transfer request is in though
Its off to Kuala Lumpur on Tues for a few days then back to sunny Scotland.

Thanks again for the hospitality and warm welcome

Watch out Matt doesnt come round to stay for a night and dissappears with some CSL parts

[rstoughy]

Well to say it's a shock to the system to be back is an understatement

36deg in Malaysia when we left and -4deg and Snow in Aberdeen when we landed

Best get on the hunt for some work over that side of the world me thinks
