Is it really 8 months since ive posted here ...?...........
So sorry chaps !
Well , as , my Daf "facebook" friends will know , its not been a very good few months for me , with my dads health deteriating and not being able to leave him on his own at all ......and now , just to add to the fun ...ive got to have an operation myself some time soon....
BUT......
Some GOOD news ;
After 4 years of waiting , we are being rehoused in a 2 bedroom , groundfloor flat -as dads been " trapped " most of the time in his 1st floor flat 1 bedroom flat ........
A HUGE IMPROVEMENT to our lives ! ;D
So the next 2 weeks will see me doing a good impression of an Essex Daf headless chicken - ---
Ive got to go to Benenden private hospital for my Op assesment next week and.....,
Having booked and paid in February, for tickets + hotel + respite for dad , so I can go to "Dragstalgia" , a historical Drag Racing event at Santa Pod on Friday 13th...( )
Thats now the day we collect the keys to the new flat...! which is handy as dad was going into respite anyway , so he can stay a few extra days , and when he come back , he can go straight to the new flat
Im still going away ( a bit later than planned..but , as no refunds ..and it see`s my friend firing up his car , Britains 1st dragster ! for the 1st time in 50 years ...
THEN MOVING home MONDAY 16th ...... ;D
And ive got find time to meet a TV PRODUCER !.because ......
THIS BRINGS US TO EXCITING DAF NEWS ..... ;D
Ive been aproached by a TV production company ........
after many phone calls and emails , they are interested in doing the restoration work on LouLouBelle... ;D ;D with it being filmed to include the
" Human Story " behind the cars history , how she survived etc etc etc , including the 1st owner , which she has agreed to !
