Upcoming upgrades / changes

Post by Ciaran » Mon Aug 23, 2010 2:45 pm

Hi guys,

Just to let you know, the forum may blip sporadically* over the course of the week, as I'll be attempting to carry out some upgrades and maintenance, as well as add a few new features.

* - What, more than usual?? I hear you say :lol:

Some of these features should prove quite useful, others are intended to improve reliability a little, as I know it has dipped from time to time.
I'll post more details of the individual features etc at the time :)

Hi Ciaran

Blipping of the forum I can stand, no worries.
It is the people who dig deep trenches around my XM while it is parked up that get to me.
Is this the shape of things to come now the government is to ban wheel clamping on private land.

Apologies John for laughing in the face of your misfortune, I just can't quite believe that someone would do this! :o

Any pictures? :lol:

yes, pictures would be good - is it a wide trench? If not, this is a good time to test out the legendary Citroen suspension!

At least your cat didn't become litter!

Time to come clean before this gets out of hand.
Just a bit of amusement with another forum member.
PeterN very kindly lets me park my XM overflow in his field.
Elsewhere on the forum you will see the odd crypic comments about this.
" Red XM currently residing in Petersfield" etc.
Last month I mentioned to Peter that I might come and swap it for another one.
A couple of days ago in a post Peter mentioned in passing that there was now a deep trench trapping the car in the field.
