I guess my early start that I'd planned is now out of the window  :'(
Call in Jaime, junction 18 M6, I could do with a hand doing my rear brakes ;D

I'll be leaving Friday morning. Journey should take around 5 hours depending on traffic so should be there early afternoon. I've actually got Thursday off work too, but need to sort a few things out like cleaning up the BBQ and checking the gas, then a bit of shopping for essential supplies such as beer, beer, and did I mention beer? ::) :D
I suppose a bit of food wouldn't go amiss either.

I still need to:

  • print off directions for both journeys
  • get a kit bag to put everything into
  • get some bungees or ropes to secure everything to the bike
  • sort clothes out
  • sort stove and kettle

fun fun fun...
Drop the stuff off here Paul and I will take it up ;)

The only thing I can't carry (which I wasn't going to anyway) is my chair, so if the offers up I can nip that round later on if thats ok??  :y

 ;D ;D ;D  No Andy, TB has obviously got a very slow miggy (it is a diesel after all!) that needs days in hand to get their just as everyone else is arriving!  ;D ;D ;)  Perhaps someone can overhaul his engine for him whilst at the Lakes?  ;D ;)
Nope, MV6. Was going to use tractor, but it has a minor problem that I need to look at before taking it on longer journeys...

I might save you a nice big pitch right next to mine, so I can utilise the 'Russell Chef' device at breakfast time ;D

Not got time to do any more T-shirts, but I'm taking a few OOF logo'd ones that will be sold at discounted rate of £5-£6 each, first come first served.
