This is a message for Eddie, or anyone who talked with Owen at the last cruise or at all, cos I've lost his mobile number and can't inform him about this cruise! Do you have a way to contact him Eddie, or anyone? He doesn't have net access.

He had the red Focus on the Regatta cruise (to jog anyone's memory).

Dan,

What I'll do is p.m. Seano as I first met Owen on the Cruise that Seano organised. O.K.

Thanks Eddie,

you're a legend, and thanks for the PM... I will forward this cruise info onto Owen and see if he'll be interested in coming along (he lives down south)

ok, Owen (Sparco Focus) won't be coming as he doesn't have the Focus anymore.

I'll be keen for a cruise. I haven't drive my ute at all in the last 6 months or so...

Its not quite a Focus or a Fez, and its hardly European, but I can pull off 4 plug leads and play some Swedish metal on the stereo if that helps?

:P :P

I hope it hangs together.

I'm putting the engine back together now, I'll drop it back into the ute in a few hours, then I need to port the (lower) intake before fitting all the other bits and pieces.

I'll fire it up tomorrow sometime, then I'll know if it lumps along again, or if it will just end up going BANG!!

lol
