mines been posted in the wrong section lol needs too be in the yorkshire section not midlands

[Scott]

Done

Just a note, I think where people are putting their names down who are offering services as a business, they need to specify this. Most people (I assume) are putting their names down to help for free or for beer tokens (bacon sandwich?).

Also anyone contacting other members about services should know that those people who are helping out for free may not be able to offer any warranty for work carried out and problems can arise if anything gets broken while repairing something else. That is for you to sort between you if such a situation comes about.

[Dum-Dum]

Maybe a section for the pro mechanics.

Although Kris is very good at fixing little things for his customers for nothing and fixing break downs over the phone.

Scott I've added a litte note about warranties etc. I'm sure most know this but best to make it known.
Dum, you could be onto something there as having people like krisB on here could be a little deceptive as obviously he will want money for works seein as its his living!
