    Commer gathering or Commerfest summer 2022 ?

    Hello, all you good people! Has anything been discussed about a meet this summer - 2022 ? I am asking as we are starting to do preliminary planning for the summer holiday this year, and a Commer meet of some discription will definitively be the driving factor for when we plan travelling to the...

    Commerfest 2020

    Commerfest #1 2010 Commerfest #2 2015 Commerfest #3 2020 ? Hello to you all. Just dawned on me that next year will be the five years since the last Commerfest. I know we discussed the fact that there really is a too long gap between these "fests" and that we ought to get more frequent meets...

    Round trip

    This week I've had the pleasure of visiting Commerchris (Christine), Commerracer (Tim), Martin, Panky (John) and Colin the Fox. I have never lost my faith in Commerkind, but visits like these only strengthens my belief. We're a truly wonderful bunch of anoraks, we really are! And I mean that...

    //Now gone// 1592ccm engine + manual gearbox + drivetrain parts for free

    Hello, all you good people. I have just acquired a job lot of parts for my 1965 series IIa "Highwayman". In this lot is also what is thought to be its original 1592ccm petrol engine, as well as 4 speed manual gearbox and rest of drivetrain - including a non-working rear axle. I'm told that...

    Crossply tyres (yes..) - but which type to go for?

    Hello everyone, I'm just going wait for a minute or two until the intense and dry laughter has silenced at the back of the room... Thankyou, gents. Yes, I have decided to go the reverse route, and get crossply tyres fitted to the Highwayman. I know most of you will try to knock some sense...

    Imgur test

    As Photobucket in effect has priced itself completely out of the picture, I thought I'd give this Imgur thingy a try. So here is the try :) Does it work, I wonder?

    Tank in the air!

    How excited I am ! New alu tank for the Bluebird was picked up at Tim's on Monday and is now "en route" to Norway. :) Cleverly disguised (in the papers) as a water tank, there are high hopes that I will avoid the claws of Customs and Excise, and escape with a nominal charge for the import...

    Photo memories from the October Commer meet

    I know it's not more than a month since we were gathering at Martin's, but it was really nice to meet up with everybody who turned up - and I thought that I'd post a few photos of the people there. I didn't catch all - far from it, but a fair few at least. Saturday morning view: Helen...

    Things happening in Norway

    Having felt pretty lonely over here when it comes to Commers, now things seem to start happening. The only other Commer camper known to exist it this country by the Rootes Club of Norway, has now found a new owner after previous two owners have tried to sell it for the last five years or so...

    Rare old Austin panel vans - in Norway !

    Hi all. A colleague of mine just sent me this link: http://www.finn.no/finn/car/used/object?finnkode=49318224 Two old Austin panel vans for sale, and to be quite honest I don't think I've ever seen any of these as panel vans in my time. The red J2 was used by the fire brigade back in the...

    25 degrees and rising..

    Just thought I'd annoy you all by letting you know that we've got 25 degrees here today (and rising) - and in the sun it is so baking hot that I've had to get inside to cool down a bit. :D We're at my mum's on the south western coast at the moment, and I think the weather in Oslo is slightly...

    Ugly dog

    We took the tube yesterday (normally use the tram of the bus) and noticed this poster at the newsagent by the ticket barriers. I thought it was funny, so had to take a photo :D [/URL]
