Its been a couple of years.

My steam powered iPad just would not remember access details has been replaced and so here we are.

Not been a good couple of years with a hip replacement that has been problematic.

I see that there are still quite a lot of Members here who will remember me and some we have met at the Meets or at the PEC.

Anyway I still have the Turbo which is going strong and apart from my ability to attract screws into the tyres all is going well and we even managed a bit of off roading as per the image.

Welcome back Col. I'm glad to hear you've overcome your health problems.

One of your last posts described problems with your car caused by your dash cam connections. I hope those problems are also behind you.

Cheers guys

Yes, the Dashcam took a live feed from the OBD socket and when I had my hip replaced I was out of action for over six weeks during which time the Dashcam flattened the battery.

I had completely forgotten to disconnect it before the Op

Hi Col. Welcome back ol’ timer! Still a few of us around, some with same cars, some even adding 911s! :lol:

Good to hear things are better now and you’re enjoying the turbo if even off road. Perhaps when the shackles are finally released we might meet up again somewhere.

Nice to hear from you Col - great to have you back, I've not been on here much recently so pleased to see all the old timers on this thread. I sold my last 911 - 992 S before lockdown and have been without a Porsche until a couple of weeks ago when I managed to pick up a really keenly priced 991.1 Turbo S - GT silver with all the trimmings.
