"Neighbours" in a way: I live on the far side of Warsaw (Falenica), but I'm in Piastów about once a week (sometimes weekends, sometimes weekdays), though usually by train and/or bike I'll let you know next time I take the car there (no sooner than January, probably), maybe we could meet somewhere in between?
I count on that! And yesterday I got an idea to change radiator completely for a bit smaller one. I have two of those in my garage. It will be much easier mod then because I have both of them with fans already and what's the most important switches to turn fan on if the temp will go too high.

And regarding our meeting I'm on! Just let me know when and where and we'll think of something. Maybe someday afterhours in Warsaw?
