Dale Posted August 29, 2011 Share Posted August 29, 2011 Just in case anyone else has the same problem I had with the itinerary files which Ellis sent out yesterday, the attachment was apparently missing when the e-mail was downloaded into Outlook Express. For some peculiar reason it was there, when I went on to my e-mail server, as a zip file (which is not how Ellis sent it) and was not showing properly with the paper clip symbol but only as a greyed out file at the very bottom of the mail. Still didn't show at all anywhere on version in OE - wierd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

32valves Posted August 30, 2011 Author Share Posted August 30, 2011 Sprint just sailed through the MOT so now it's on to the dozen or so little jobs to finish off. Carb spacers a priority then new lower steering coupling, oil change and tune-up. New starter motor at the weekend and if there's time re-wire the headlights through relays else I'll be packing a couple of indicator stalks.
