Kirdford .....that's a blast from my past , Is the Forresters pub still going or the Half moon??

I grew up just down the road in Ifold.

[mickyod]

Yes mate, both still going well (my front door is adjacent to the half moon garden for easy access )

I've been informed that's its MWS's truck and a very nice one it is too.

Mike

[BioHazard]

Is The Forresters a free house now , It was King And Barnes when i lived there .

[mickyod]

I'm fairly certain it's a free house mate but I'll have to pop in now to make sure

Mike

Yes you better make sure for at least a hour

That was me mate, i work at the land rover garage down glasshouse lane (someone's gotta do it)
Nice looking motor you got.

[tashtego]

I love this, someone who works for LR but owns a Toyota.
I know of a guy who manages a large Mitsubishi dealership and drives around in a Hilux pickup, coz he knows better. I wonder what his prospective customers make of it...




Wolf, is that the garage on the road that goes from Horsham down to Chichester?Not far from the old village with the castle and the waterfowl sanctuary? (Forgot the name!) I used to live near there.

[tashtego]

Arundel Castle!

[mickyod]

Cool, I know the place, have to hook up and let me drool over the motor for a bit mate

Mike

I'm only round the corner in Townfield.

[mickyod]

Mr Tashtego,

It's a small independent garage just outside of Kirdford heading toward the A272

That's four surfs in the village now

The good thing about working on landies is that when you specialise in unreliable vehicles you generally always have work.

I also do alli and stainless tig welding, tube bending for bumpers/cages/sliders, diagnostics etc.
And although my boss despises anything other than land rovers im happy to bring in private work so the offers there should you require any assistance.
But yes, as im only down the road so will have to hook up.
Being in town field you probably know my bosses son ( shaun allfrey)

Mike

Towards Wisbrough Green or Balls Cross and Petworth Both do the 272 ..... Is The Stag at Balls Cross sill there ???


I thing the one Tashtego is on about is the one between Roman gate and the Clempsfold roundabout on the A281

[tashtego]

Quite possibly,it was a big LR dealer with large windows, kind of posh looking. They had built a couple of those fake rocky out crops outside, right by the road, and used to perch the vehicles there for display. Almost in front of it,on the right, going down towards Arundel from Horsham, there was one of those filling stations with the attached tyres place, with yellow and red arrow type logo, those ones that sell engine oil in the shop for 0.99 a litre!
That takes me back more than 20 yrs,driving down to Bognor in various clapped up 'studenty' type wrecks...

[Wølf]

Biohazard, our place is past the church and half moon inn, down the hill and over the humpback bridge.
The stag is still at balls cross.
Tashtego, that place is harwoods in Pulborough.
