I had to buy the glass for the near side door mirror today (Mrs DD having had a close encounter with a bush on a country lane)( White van man coming the other way)
I called Guy Salmon in Maidstone, Kent yesterday, who had the part (£30.56 incl vat ) and held it for me to collect.
They sent one of the mechanics out to the car park to fit it, as the parts guy said there was a bit of a knack to it.
Ok it took him less than 3 minutes to fit, whilst I moved the electric adjustment up and down. But there was no mention of a charge - Apart from the £5 tip I gave the mechanic.

10/10 to them - They have just earned my first service

Blimey, this is the dealer that I did NOT buy my beloved from because just getting served appeared to be a challenge.

PS Dougden, try comparing service costs with Barretts at Canterbury. You may find a 30 mile trip east to your advantage!!!

Come on CG, us softie southerners have to have all the money down here, because you have all the other good things in life - Those funny large Yorkshire puddings, it is so quaint the way you put all the stuff inside the pud itself, where we have to put our vegetables in individual serving dishes. And those lovely flat hats to protect you from the the sunshine you get on the 28th of August every other year. By the way, are your daffodils out yet?

Cheers John L - Will gve them a call next time Mrs DD goes bushwacking!!

Sugar????

Mint sauce/horseradish on the Yorkshires Eaten as a starter not on the same plate as the main. fill it up to the top with gravy and if it leaks tell your mother/wife/chef that its faulty and you want a different one

i didn't expect you to like it, but don't knock what you haven't tried

The trick is to get good natural beef gravy from your roast joint and just a sprinkle of sugur

Its a family thing, my dad does it, his dad does it, and his dad did it too.

The looks you get when you ask for sugar in restaurant is great
