Urgently need a welders near Canterbury??

Post by Winchweight »

Jim San is on his way to Syncro 30 but his exhaust has developed a severe rattle which get worse the Warmer the engine gets. Can anyone help so he still gets on the ferry on Monday?

He has no 3G coverage so PM me for his number please.

:ok

Update, he has a crack in the exhaust system and thinks it should be a straight forward fix for a competent welder. So any welders in the area of Canterbury able to help please?

Jim needs to fix this as he is due to be on a ferry Monday en route Berlin. Can you help?

Have put the word out in Kent.

PPS or tell him to get over to GU21. About 2hours each way but there is a lot of today left.

Thanks Ian, I'll pass that on to him. I think he's still in the Canterbury area.

Hi guys, I'm in King Lynn at moment, I'll be in Kent on Monday after dropping in laws in harwich early Monday morning, i figured as today is Sunday if give my Monday plans,
I can happily travel to get it fixed, cant make Woking today though, is Monday day any good

Just in mcds to get Wi Fi but need to dash off but hopefully will find coverage in a but, camp site was total black spot

Cheers fellas,

Just a decent welder and grinder would do. I could do it so it doesn't have to be a skilled welder
