    Hello, Claire - just on the net while on a break from repairing a boiler. I havent been on for a while but I still visit the shows, it has been an expensive year, reroofed garage and set up a home office in it and changed my wife's car. I have also gone into business for myself, having certified & registered with OFTEC servicing & replacing oil boilers, I did buy a van though for the work: a 1996 Nissan Urvan 2.5D! (lovely and reliable, but would look good with a cooker & R/R bed!!) - if I won the Lotto, a nice classic VW van would look good for the job!! Still driving the Vectra as well, it just keeps on going. I suppose setting up the new business cost in the region of 4.5K between the van, training & special combustion test gear, so no funds for classic purchase/resto - things going well, though, never an idle day. Hope all is going well in Sligo and that Harry & Molly & Tom are well. Did you find a good home for the engine out of Jennybus - just curious as to where it is living now! The remainder of the bus went down to Knightleys in Milltown, he called one day to tow it down, was delighted with the good glass, steering box & tyres! Sad to have to break it up, but it was really far too rotten for economic repair & at least it is keeping a few other buses alive and in roadworthy condition. I havent been up north since May last year, when I called to Tom, but will certainly call when I go on hols to Donegal this summer. Till then take care
    Regards
    Peter
