GB sticker made from electrical tape.. that's a win.

Laura iirc the Halfords kits are like £50.

This weekend i'm going to dig everything out i think, camping stove, camping chair, head torch, sleeping bag, maps (going to plan a route to miss paiages), oh and my GB badge.

I burnt my tent last year so i'm going to have to get a new 1 and new cooking utensils.

 

[Laura]

No point me getting everything out as i have a couple of shows before then anyway lol

 

[Curtis!]

What sort of food do people eat while camping? Survive on bacon/sausages/bread?

Spare bulb kit - not technically a legal requirement, but the police can fine you on the spot if you can not immediately replace a defective bulb. Basically all bulbs must work all of the time, so you dont need to carry bulbs if you know your bulbs aren't going to blow.

Fcuking joking aren't you? You know that for the majority of the cars going you've got to take the front bumper off to change the bulb pretty much?

[LiquidRich]

I might have to buy Gem a camping stove so she can feed me, Naith and Riad

 

[Mike_182]

I might plaster the barge in ClioSport decals, just to confuse people. If JD ever appears, I'll take his sexy face too.

[Naith]

[Mike_182]

Because I drive an Audi, and Naith drives a Smegane. Which will confuse people.

 

[Curtis!]

[Laura]

camping stove etc will be purchased prior to trip

 

[LiquidRich]

camping stove etc will be purchased prior to trip

I've looking at one as well, we're camping at Silverstone for the grand prix so it will come in useful then Not sure I'll have room for eveything given that I'll have to take tools in case TDK breaks down lo

 

[Laura]

bah you have 2 cars lol

im half tempted to take some tools too but then i could just play the girly card n pretend i know jack all about cars the whole weekend lol

 

[LiquidRich]

thats true but all the stuffs going in the 197, I dont wanna be weighing the 182 down coz I'm gonna be driving that me thinks, especially given the extra power I should have

Im only gonna take a small collection of essentials tools tbh, nothing major. Im not taking a jack and axle stand like I normally do when I go to a show lol

 

[Laura]

I think i may purchase another tent mines really small n if im spending more than one night in it may get a bit hacked off lol

tools, dont think ill bother, we will have fred if anything needs doing he can do it, cba scratting round on my back on holiday too lol

anyone taking a paddling pool haha? we used one to keep the drinks cool last time we were in france.

 

[Naith]

loving the idea of a grill. hmmmmm wonder if we can get meat/burgers in the area

 

[Laura]

id imagine so, even if we cant, cool box with loads of ice packs should keep burgers etc cool enough for the 3 days as long as we keep them in the shadows if its hot just make sure they are cooked well
