    Forget the bar, what you want to find is the Rabbit Hole.

    Welcome, VV... the bar is on the other side of the dance floor. Whereabouts in the UK?

    Be careful down in the Car sections of the forum... A few wander up here, but we mostly confine them to the garage. :cheesygrin:
    More later,
