[Curtis!]

I think there's a gazebo in the garage, just cbfa with the hassle of putting it up etc!

Taking acouple of chairs, socket set, 6 pack of 2l evian bottles, crate of dr pepper, crate of water, crate of whatever beer I fancy, tent, carpet for my tent, fooood, Jack., PMR Radio? Sun cream, food, need to get some sunglass' actually. Ipod for radio le mans. Mini BBQ/Grille thingy with acouple of pots and some olive oil of course. Waterproof coat! Got some tape to mark out pitch but no idea how much it is. I gotta little table from makro for 20 quid so. Seems like I've bought alot but reading that back it doesn't seem like anything at all :/

Oh, and a double air bed this year. Maybe take my mini moto but cbfa with it getting knicked or having it being heavy as f**k compared to everything else in the car.

Anyone take a bike lock or similiar to chain said generator to a tree/fence?

Just doing my stickers right now! Got little time to sort the car out aswell eeeek.

Naith pissed?? Nah!

The BB's have purchased a small BBQ and some instant light charcoal bag thingies, in-car fridge will be taken to store our food (and drinks if room). Fold up chairs, tent, baby wipes, gas grill for the morning bacon butties innit, camera gear to capture this amazing event. Got 2 PMR radios which we'll tune in to Curtis's frequency to stay in contact.

Pretty much covered what we're taking.

[Curtis!]

As far as I know they won't let you carry jerry cans full of fuel on ferry if you stopped so will have to get that in France possibly

 

[JamesBryan]

Is there any mention of this on the P&O website?

 

[Truffs]

Its Illegal to carry a jerry can on your car without the hazard warning stuff, and its a deff no go on the ferry.

 

[Truffs]

Shall we make a list of whos got what because last year we ended up with shed loads of stuff 30 times and not enough of what we actually need.

 

[Laura]

thats because you had a full on castle... welcome matt and moat included
