OK guys as a follow up to the original thread see here http://forum.earlybay.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=10961&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=EB+Technical+Weekend" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; I know its short notice but I've managed to chat to the Landlord and he is quite happy to have a few campers around for the weekend and was quite cool about the whole thing.
So if people are still interested I can make the unit available over the weekend of the 14th/15th March at our storage unit bear Tamworth (10 mins off Jcn 10 on the M42 or about 5mins off Jcn 9 of the M42)
I think we need to restrict the items covered to:
Routine Maintenance, servicing etc
Replacing Fuel Lines
Electrical, hooking up a leisure battery etc, using a multimeter
Suspension set ups
In order to cover these I ideally need someone to demonstrate each area on either their own bus or one of the visitors buses so as well as looking for who wants to come I'm also looking for whose prepared to demonstrate these.
So I need a list of who is still up for this and what do you want to learn, no welding or spraying I'm afraid as too many other buses around.
With regards to camping their is a choice of 2 sites within approx 6 miles so we could head there once it gets dark on the Saturday evening have a few beers etc and generally chill out, come back to the unit on the Sunday morning for a couple of hours and then head off just after lunch. If I know the numbers I'm happy to supply a buffet type lunch on both days if people make a donation.
Campsites close by are these:

http://www.siteseeker.co.uk/aspx/details.aspx?id=8120" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Let me know what you think, if its too short a notice then I understand and I'll rearrange it for later on in April or May
Please form an orderly queue below with what you want to learn/can teach
