Title: AGM - or not
Post by: mickw on Feb 27, 2013, 17:45:22

Stupid Dampervan has a battery that refuses to get charged.
First it was a fuse blown in the onboard charger, now it seems a switch was in the wrong position.
If it fails an overnight charge the battery might be duff and too late to order a replacement

Possible I won't make it to the AGM, which is particularly frustrating because I was really looking forward some Abbots afterwards

A pint of Abbots afterwards - lovely! A great idea!

YAY - "It's Alive"
Battery now charged, no idea how although probably something to do with the buttons and switches I hit :-?

What a performance

Can't, that would cost £300 in the Low Emission Zone :!

I'd use less fuel if I parked at Ashford - good idea though - so I'll see you at the June AGM then ;)

Well that was probably the most entertaining AGM ever !!

Nice to see you Mick. Although I didn't recognise you at first as you've lost even more weight than Tony G has !

Yes, without doubt the best AGM I've been along to.

Thanks to Tony for standing in for Gilbert and delivering an entertaining talk on Pluto!

Good to see Mick and the "Dampervan" again and a great drink afterwards.

Yep a great evening and it was great to see everybody again.

I must try to get to a few more meetings throughout the year although the drive home is a bit of a killer

Last night Tony was talking about the 4th and 5th Moons of Pluto. Well those two moons now have (proposed) names - Cerberus and Vulcan.
