Title: Lakes - see ya all tomorrow
Post by: bob.dent on 07 June 2007, 16:57:44
Well, just about to leave work - gas BBQ's been cleaned up and loaded along with big gas bottle, electric cool box and standard cool box. Just got a few bits of food and ice to pick up from JS this evening then load the rest of the car up and hopefully all set. Hopefully should get away between 9-10am and should arrive sometime around 3pm traffic permitting. I'll have the electric cool box plugged in on the journey up so beers are nice and cold on arrival. :y

Have a safe journey all and see you there tomorrow :y :y :y 8-)

I'm leaving at 12 as well, 250m, 4hrs according to TomTom, and I guess that doesn't take into account the Friday M42/M6 traffic :(

In this PC correct world (see the crap evolving from Big Bother 8) should that no read as 20 person tent??  ie, room for Timbuck and 19 selected close and/or intimate friends??  :-*

Hareem, is perhaps the word, instead of a menagerie....   :D

see you all tomorrow evening

Don't trust the car towing at the moment, using oil (clogged breathers I think) and the thermostat is not yet replaced. Also Sue is mystery shopping again.
