#1 Forum back room hard work

Post by Gfhug » Sun Feb 05, 2023 6:34 pm

It would be easy to think that David (Heuer) spends his day searching for old photos of E Types or taking photos of his nieces en dishabille. Though I envy the latter!
However a recent topic I started in the technical section to give ready reference for how to wire lock bolts has been an example of the daily work he does to keep this forum in good order.
All I had done was plagiarise info from the interweb, David then had to format it all to the forum standard, tidy up some of my headings and generally make it all easier on the eye. He will then probably convert it to pdf to add to the KB and make the topic a sticky. Mine was the easy job, his the more onerous.
Which leads me to say a public thank you, David, for the back room work you do for all our benefits :thankyouyellow:

With gratitude

Thank you David. You always shed light on the more obscure technical aspects of our cars and my restoration wouldn't have progressed so well without that input.
Yours,
