Santa Pod Meet

[The Barge Captain]

Okay dokey..... I noticed in your sig a few days ago that your tech2 is broken, is it still?
Coz i was wondering, in exchange for some beer tokens, if you could have a play with my power steering and put it on the light setting?

Checked on Tunnie's 2.2, defo no electronic adjustment on these, so its purely v6 that has that...

You can adjust that?

[The Barge Captain]

Only got gas, but too big to go in car....

Is nobody taking a LPG powered meega to hook up to?  

[The Barge Captain]

Sorry guys.  Only read this for interest as unable to go myself.  You know how the mind starts to work / not work at this time of night

Just put the drivers heated seat on in my car. It gets hot enough to grill my backside

[Bo Bo]

If you are, here's a thought...

We all agreed to put in, say £10 each, and someone brings some burgers, bangers, cheese slices, onions, rolls etc etc for burgers/hotdogs etc etc.

Probably easier if we all bring our own booze though...

Good idea.
What about those disposable BBQ's ?

[bob.dent]

Is anybody bringing a barbecue?

I'm hoping to borrow one from ex-Mrs bob.dent along with a few other items, so if anyone wants to bring along any bangers etc. you're welcome to use it

I reckon a group BBQ/beer fest is called for, if you're OK with that bob.dent?

No problem with that at all Jaime - sounds great I don't know how big the BBQ is yet as I'm picking it up tomorrow morning but I'll bring plenty of charcoal so we can keep it going. Also hoping to borrow a portable fridge and cool box for the beers - can't have warm beer can we!!

[Elite Pete]

I hope the cool box is the size of a chest freezer

Well, I imagine it's going to be constantly topped up

Unfortunately I am still stuffed with cold, also need some tyres

I will see you all soon though, preferably when it is warm and dry and I am not full of cold.

Sorry to hear that Martin - haven't got rid of mine yet either but it's not too bad. I'm sure this will be done again next year, but in the summer!

[TheBoy]

I have a gas powered fridge, but I doubt it will cool down beer quick enough...

I have a large inflatable dustbin, that you fill up with water to chill drinks...


Who's gonna get the grub then?

[Martin_1962]

I definately be there during summer provided it doesn't overlap with a holiday.

I'll get the bumper and spoiler painted by then!

I don't mind getting it if thats what everyone wants to do but I was thinking maybe it would be better if everyone brought what they actually wanted. The only reason I say this is because there might be some people who don't like certain food. My only other concern would be finding the room to store the food overnight as I'm planning to go to Sainsbury's tonight to get supplies and beer as I won't have time in the morning, and I'm a bit restricted on space in my fridge. I'm ok for supplying the BBQ, charcoal and firelighters.

What does everyone else think?

[Marks DTM Calib]

Probably the best way to go to be honest....I'll gte me a half pig for the Barbecue...
