    Theres an old saying "A friend in need is a friend in deed" (tho some say A friend in need is a pain in the aRsE)

    I just want to say a huge THANK YOU to Mar1k for helping me get "Graham" my new trike from Cat (you can still have visiting rights!) in Trowbridge to my home in Calne.

    I was let down by a friend in Melksham as his car tax disc hadnt come thru (Change of classification) which meant Mar1k stepped in at the 11th hour to help me out.

    This was really kind as he came from Bradford on Avon to do the trip then off to work in Bristol.... a bit of a detour!

    Its things like this that revive your faith in human nature!


    Cheers buddy!

    glad you got trike home safe, visiting rights sounds great, when you're finished i'll need to take a peek to see how it turned out.

Coffee and bacon butties are available to anyone else who wants to join in - many hands make light work etc! If your good with electrics this would be a HUGE help! PM me for details!
