[Gavin.]

Lol! If were struggling to get it done maybe Mark will lend me the car and I'll come down in it on the 17th.
How's that sound Mark? :rasp:

 

[JamesBryan]

*Posting on behalf of Mark*

That sounds like a great idea Gavin

 

[couzens]

I've got the 16th off too, although I've decided I may go to Ascot races instead.

Sweet , I'll see you then. Lol.

Pretty sure you've got to be posh to go to them?

Also its definitely about putting the stickers on whilst drinking your first beer waiting for the ferry at Dover....

 

[boffey]

Cars in Renault having its gearbox taken out at the end of the week hopefully will be ready for the drive down.

 

[Gavin.]

I'd be on the phone giving them the script tbh :rasp:

Feckin lol. Might come to that yet !

although I might come down with MANFLU if I can't get it off.

 

[Hainesy.]

Lol, dont let Brett near it next year.

 

[Panda.]

Or Ollie.. don't want him bleedin' an' faintin' all over the place again

 

[boffey]

Already have, getting a contribution off Renault and it should be done by next Friday.

 

[JamesBryan]

Do tell...

 

[Panda.]

Do tell...

We took a couple of go-peds last year (not so much to get about on, just to dick about on in the campsite).. Mine was a lethal, chainsaw engine powered thing which was really tempermental, my brothers was a proper goped.. After a few shandies they decided to see who dared go fastest on it. I think Ollie went fastest - but through the air rather on wheels as he hit a pot hole, and landed palms first (I think, I was half-cut tbf..) and returned to the tent with a bloodied goped.. sat down, Dave found bandages and Mike offered Whiskey to clean them up with... Then Ollie basically blacked out for a little while.... The cuts were pretty brutal though!!!

 

[JamesBryan]

Haha, sounds similar to ours when brett borrowed one and fell off after about 5 yards and landed on his face!

 

[Laura]

dammit! youve just reminded me i was going to get something sorted like that this year a mini moto was the idea... goes off to ebay

I'd get something cheap as it will no doubt get half-inched.

 

[couzens]

Little bit upset Brett's not coming this year.

I know

I'm sure he'll make up for it next year.

mine got stolen monday morning by the french.. which lead us to destroy anything remaining of any value (tv's/fridges etc) left by other people so they couldn't take them either... Mike can throw a TV nearly 8ft.....!

 

[JamesBryan]

I fackin' hate pikies!
