That's good news mate! Not too long to go...Cool, just so I know some names before I meet you all.
Just had the time signed off by my boss, will be booking everything up on Friday.
Is everyone up for meeting at a pub/resteraunt before we head to Dover? I think its a good idea.
Let me know what you's think.

Definately Stu.
It's a bit late if you all think I'm a cnut when we're on the ferry
Don't worry we'll just ignore you for the trip

If we have walkie talkies you won't be able to :evil:.
No but on a serious note, I'm not a cnut. I think meeting up before we head the ferry is a great idea, as I might spend most of it throwing up over the side not getting to know anybody.
Have we got a final route planned, as has anybody checked that the ring is a public day on the day we are going?

South Wales is quite a way from the ring

I'll double check the dates and let you know mate. But i'm pretty sure it's the first weekend/weekday in October.

.Get a battery pack, then it should last the entire trip!
You are all going to show me up, I only have a Nikon D40!

how many nights are we camping then?
I've just ordered a spare OE battery pack for my camera, i'll also be bringing my slingshot and my tripod and a few memory cards.
Stu do you remember that camera mount for the window, i got it but it's nee good as there's nee room for the camera to do with the angle of the windscreen. Is there another type to hold ours?

You shouldn't be driving to the shops past 4 1/2 k revs
What kind of noise? A rattle?
I'll get a picture later of the stickers and 'said sticker', I'm going to give her a long awaited clean.

it's had 2 cracks on my Magnex both have been welded, sounds like a rattle. I think it's the bafflers in the back box but it's passed it's mot. if it is the bafflers would my exhaust be ok for the trip. if i turn up the music it will blanc it out abit. but it's very noticeable the sound like. it doesnt make it normal driving only when you give it beans
I've got an old 172 backbox in my garage, would need welding into place though. If you want it, you can have it. Think it's powerflow. It was grinded off my old car, but sure can be made to fit.
I've got a full standard system in my garage Geddes.
