I would be removing the car and giving the paint guy a decent kick in the bollox

I am impatient at the best of times.... but surely a good paint job should take less than a month ?

Trev there are a load of zoners who deserve a pint from me. Camping at the zone will be very expensive for me this year me thinks. Not many northern zoners will have to buy bear.
