Osiyo [hello] I'm; Paol [pronounced 'Pole'] an aged half breed Indian from Southamton who has just resurrected an old Talbot Express camper from it's rusty grave! My mother was from both Navajo and Cherokee descent and taught me the value of 'caring' and my Father, a 'cockney' aircraft engineer, taught me how to 'repair'. I am somewhat disabled and my hands don't work as well as they should, so the camper is not by any means 'perfect' but it is now 'on the road'. My last effort was an old Bedfod 'Advantura' that I also rebuilt and used it as a public address unit when announcing at shows and events. I got talked into selling it and I 'missed' the old beast, so this Talbot is my compensation! I am going to celebrate having 'launched' it by throwing a party; A meet in September. [I hope to post the details later] Keep an eye on this old Injun, He knows how to organise stuff!. Lastly, I must tell you a funny that happened last week; I Had a 'classic' Avondale caravan that I just sold to a lady with a classic car and wanted my caravan for the shows. She was very pleased with Her new toy, but had not towed before, so I gave her a few tips and off She went! Later I spoke with Her on the phone and She told me that She got it home without a hitch!
I know I shall meet some good people here. May the Great Spirit be with you all. Paol [LaughingHeart]

Hiya Laughingheart (Old Injun):eek:, and welcome to the site, great first post ,so looking forward to more;):).

Just beware:eek::p, theres a few Cowboys:eek: on here:D, mention no names:rolleyes::D:cool:
 
Cowboys, wot cowboys?

Osiyo Wing nut and tony,
Thank for those kind words. Nice to meet you if only graphically! The only Cowboys I've seen of late were The two clowns who just told me I would need a new disc and caliper etc to cure the thumpy, thump coming from my front offside! They spoke of several hundred pounds...... They spoke with forked tongues! Do you know the best place to get a CV joint for a j reg Talbot Express?
Shame its too far for you to my meet. Yes it's just about as far south as you can get! Paol.

Ov for Talbot

Thanks Lenny,
I used to use that link quite a lot, but one or two of the older members seem to 'hog' it and I meet with 'unfriendliness', so I tend to eshew that kind of reception to my niceness. Have had good results too!
While I'm here, I must apologise to Tony, having not replied to His kind greeting. Sorry Tony and thank you, I'm getting senile! Paol.
