Subject: Bleeding mythology...

OK, enough about elevating the front of the truck when bleeding the 
brakes...it's just not necessary. In fact, it adds a dangerous aspect to 
the task, as the front of the vehicle would have to be about 3 feet off 
the ground to get the MC horizontal, which is at best precarious.
What is most effective is an assistant who is capable of pumping up the 
pressure in the line so that when the bleed screw is cracked open, a rush 
of fluid blasts out. This has the effect of swirling the fluid in the MC 
and other parts of the system so that the tiniest of air bubbles get 
washed through (Pressure bleeding, or vacuum bleeding both do more or 
less the same thing).
If you are doing the job alone, have a length of tree branch handy that 
you can use to jam the pedal in the down position after you've pumped up 
the pedal. Then shinny under the truck and crack open the bleed screw. 
After you've done that ten or twelve times on each wheel, you begin to 
appreciate why it's a good idea to stay on the good side of your 
neighbors.

Merely as a memeber of an incorporated body, you are only liable up to the
value of your contribution to that entity.  Hence, if you pay 20 quid a
year to join and the club should get sued (entirely unlikely anyway) you're
going to lose the money.  You will not, however, have your house siezed
because you happen to be the only bloke in the club with some assets.
Attaching personal responsibility to a corporate issue is known in the U.S.
as "piercing the corporate veil".  It is extremely hard to do this.  In an
incorporated club structure, the chances of this happening are extremely
slim.  Piercing of the corporation is usually only possible if the
corporation's sole purpose based on the circumstances is to avoid personal
liability for one individual...clearly not the case with the SI club.

I've used Dingocroft as an intermediary in the past for
parts from Turner, Wadsworth Panels, and others.  I think
they'd be willing.

cheers,
