No probs - I'm now toying with the idea of bringing a gas BBQ if I can fit it in.......what am I saying, I've got an Omega estate!!! of course it'll fit :y Not sure if we'll get Marks half a pig on it though ;D
It will also mean that I can run the fridge from the gas bottle instead of draining my car battery :y
.....and before I get any wise cracks, the fridge runs on gas or electric :) Cold beers all round then :y :y :y

Well its the tent for me as the thought of towing the caravan for a round trip of 300 miles for one night doesn't appeal to me. Well if im being honest ive just cleaned the car and i can't be bothered to clean the van ;). So im now off to the supermarket to get the beer oh and some beer and i might bring some beer as well. anyone think of anything else

Me and Laidback just got back from Santa Pod. Met some rally nice people today. very hospitable and fiendly sorts. unfortunately, there were also some Omega owners too! ;D ;D

Seriously, had a great day, although the cold wind has really done my back in and I will be whinging for days now.

I think about 12 of us in the end. Some nice Omegas, one really clean one - Barry! and one lovely green colour I haven't seen before. There was the other end of the spectrum too with Jaimes Rover 200. But there is always one isn't there? ;D

Watched loads of muppets driving and riding really quickly. Several near misses. Then they brought out the Jet car near the end. Unreal. i have seen this car before and it still makes me wonder what kind of numpty would actually want to drive it ever? 0-272mph in a few seconds over the 1/4 mile to much applause, but mostly relief that he didn't crash it!

Anyway, a great day out and many thanks to those who turned up. Nice to put some faces to the names. Although it must be said that some thieveing bar steward tried to pinch marks headlamp washer! Can you believe some people?

Mrs TheBoy was impressed with the bike that hit 169mph in 1/4 miles, though she suggested I didn't try it on my ZX10...
