Title: Return
Post by: dajwid on April 27, 2018, 01:14:28 PM
I joined the club in the early days 'Chris Lakin' days.
 I had a few 126 in Poland (Lived there 13 years 'Brit abroad'). I returned to the UK about 13 years ago. I had a few cars, Sold to Mick 'Bis13' bought from Mick.
Bought Beryl, sold Beryl, bought it back, Had it stolen, Swapped for an old Austin.
A few years passed looking for another 126. Prices rose. Time passed.Prices rose again. I looked at PL LHD cars.

I now have another 126 1979 Italian Rusty project.

I paid to rejoin the club ( I'm suprised we are not sent a reminder ).

The only thing I'm struggling with is that Photobucket is now dead. What hosting sites are people using. I'm now too used to Facebook, Click to add photo.

tapatalk app works pretty well for photo uploads. It cuts out the need for a photo storage site and pulls the photos straight from your phone. I don't use the website to upload photos anymore, I've become spoiled by the time it takes to upload in facebook and whatsapp!

Unfortunately there is no automated system in place to send out reminders when subscribers membership are due for renewal.

If possible try to use the forum's "Attachments and other options" for uploading photos, this will ensure that the photos will permanently remain if a photo sharing site goes down.  I have been using https://postimages.org/ for a few years which works fine with no signing up.  :)

Links no longer work even older ones.
You now need to pay to even get old links to pics to work.

Update:-
So after a shopping trip to Poland I have most of the parts I need to get started.
Now it’s just time.
The plan is to start at the front 😊 working back with the engine rebuild last.
Here we go again 😳
