I'm not jealous, I'm not jealous, I'm not jealous, I'm not jealous..

I didn't want to go anyway, I didn't want to go anyway, I didn't want to go anyway...

If I say it enough times, will I start to believe it?

NOOOOOOOOOOO

boomer

CharlieWhiskey

Cheers boomer

Awww Rachael

Sounds like a nice cosy little event this year

I have enough beer, food and equipment to last for a week

Just go to get it all in the car

ScooBabe

Sorry you can't come Rachel. And the others who couldn't make it.

Who will take up Mellow's place as the King of chat up

Chris B, I was going to pack now, but er, half of its in the machine, aw well, best go out and leave it till tomorrow then

Great pics and memories from last years. Can't wait

PS, no working email at present either

Banshi doesn't get his phone messages either.....

greg.g

I wish i didnt have to go to work in the morning so i could join
you from the start
Still, got to earn my pennies.
Looking forward to meeting you all tomorrow afternoon en route.
12 scoobies shouldnt be hard to find.
Will be able to hear you 5 miles away

See you in a few hours.

Greg

ChrisB

Back from Tesco with supplies purchased

Do I wash the car? Nah!

banshi

Just can't get enough E's in this wildernesh
Or maybe another one of the things that doesn't work is my keyboard!

Should be breathe, maybe time to change my username to Al Zimer!

Regretably, for me at least, a last minute problem has prevented my attendance. Have to put all that gear back in the loft now ;( but on the bright side you are saved the embarassment of my company.

SB What phone message?
Control of your digets is notoriously lax! I am not perpetually in the Pub like some and always find time to respond.

CharlieWhiskey

Mr Askew & Mel may be joining us at the campsite

boomer

Well i am looking out on a beautiful cloudless sky

It's going to be a wonderful day

The sun has got his hat on, hip hip hip hurray!!!!

See you all in a few hours

Ready to roll

CharlieWhiskey

Rachael

Are you nearly there yet????

banshi

Phew, what a relief read CWs post and thought H's plumbing was the problem

Also trying to be there in spirit by putting away a few beers. Not really working though, as drinking alone by a PC in not quite the same as freezing ya b******s off with a bunch of lunes on a hillside

Little Miss WRX

I downed a few last night whilst remembering the last few trips.

Ended up being more depressing than anything else.

casper555

sorry we didnt make it spent the weekend in hosptial only tents there was full of oxygen ..lol lucky for us we didnt need it jerseygirls feelin better hopefully back to full strengh soon

neil@wrx

wot can i say a grate time had by all THANKS CW / BOOMER
just got out off bed got home at 4ish think i will unpack wednesday
must get new battey (asap)
Thanks once more
next time bring it on
Neil

ChrisB

Back home, unpacked and I've even been for a swim, spa and steam at the gym to unwind.

Many thanks (as ever) to CW, Scoobabe and Boomer for another top notch route. A few hold-ups with traffic but still plenty of quality tarmac to enjoy

If I see another sausage this week, let alone a BBQ'd one...

I think the Soot Mobile didn't do too badly given it's BHP deficit. For the record from meeting CW, Scoobabe, Missy C and Dave on Saturday morning to getting home this afternoon, my trip computer says:

9:02 of driving (not sure if that's just iginition on or engine running though)
36mph average speed
332 miles
40.9 average MPG

Endless miles covered with my foot wedged into the carpet in 3rd, so I'm surprised to see that MPG figure.

Another corker - thanks all

greg.g

Thanks for a really good weekend
Some fantastic roads on both days so thanks CW and boomer.
And Tavia, any time you want to borrow the van, let me know.
It might slow you down on the bloody corners

Bye for now

Greg

DaveD

Thanks CW, Boomer & Scoobabe for another quality weekend

Boomer, you left one of your list:

- Everyone starting their cars on Sunday morning to check the battery hadn't gone flat!

Tavia, hopefully next time my trusty navigator, Rachael, will be back, and she can get some footage of those flames ....still can't get over having to use 'Skoda' and 'flames' in one sentance!!

CW, nice little route on the way back...most enjoyed

missyc, did you get back ok?

Things to do list...
- bleed brakes (very useful for Epynt)
- scrape 3 thousand flys off the front of the car

See you all again soon, at Kev's bbq perhaps?!


PS does anyone else remember it being warmer at 1am than it was at 6pm?? Perhaps it was all those bbqs on the go????

CharlieWhiskey

Well I think the highlights for me are the old favourites of Aber-Devils Bridge- Cymystwyth and the A481

Two Brilliant pubs! Fantastic food, will be using those again!

Thank you all for coming, you make it what it is, pity Mr & Mrs C couldnt make it but we understand

'chelle? look what you are missing!

If I hear another 'Bo!' someone is gonna regret it

CharlieWhiskey

I hoped you recognised some of it? Shame about some of the traffic

How Many Red ones?

DaveD

iTrader: (2)

They were probably ducking for cover!!

I've got some top quality photos of the evening's entertainment...which I will be posting up tomorrow.

PS, I'm open to bribes (Boomer & Tavia might want to commence negotiations.....)

flat4

Kev

What can I say ?

MASSIVE thanks to Martin and Chris for the organisation, superb weekend, great roads what else can I say I don't think I put the VAG contingent into shame .....

Memories ?

* Fantastic roads
* How quick was ChrisB's oil burner
* All those tandams
* Phoenix Nights
* Falling over on the beach ... in the dark
* 80's revival
* All those BBQ's .. and smoke

A top weekend, I was shattered when I got back though ... Looks like I'll have to look into getting a BBQ sorted !!

Kev

banshi

Call that a WCT!

The bog should be at least 500yds away AND your camped on a flat piece of the field

After all these years 'spose a time had to come when I agree with you Chell(e]

Rachael

Not fair, Not fair, Not fair!

I'm totally pi55ed off to hear you had a good time without me!!! There is green smoke coming out of my ears, and I'm sure its not because I'm jealous or anything...

4 weeks of medication left... CW, can't you quickly organise another one... - just for me... (but obviously with everyone else there too!!!)

Glad it was fun, thought of you all weekend, sighed at the thought of you all experiencing another "Pheonix night" but was quite happy not to be cold in a tent!

Mummy and Daddy looked after me, in Suffolk for the week, bless them! Will be fit and healthy for the next one - PROMISE!

Rachael

MiisyC... hoped the boys looked after you... I know what they're like!

[Edited by Rachael - 7/7/2003 10:28:33 AM]

ScooBabe

SELECTA!

Great weekend, glad everyone enjoyed it

think I'll do a list then

*Great crowd, good laffs
*Pushing a P1 uphill
*The odd BBQ or three
*A mad man trying to attack me
*An amusing skoda exhaust
*Fun roads and scenery
*A fat volvo

WCT Institutions.....
*Dancing to really cheesy/dubious music at Phoenix nights. (missyc, it has to be done )
*Night time paddling
*Swimming, after boomer and his "night time camera" had gone
*Talking rubbish on the edge of a breezy welsh hillside till all hours.

Missed, sorry they couldn't share the fun....The Crafts, Heather and Graham.....(Just managed to get in one or two numbers at Phoenix Nights Heather, phew )
Banshi....Missed for his airbed antics and subtle banter. (There's nothing lax about my digits, ya cheeky monkey. You didn't get my phone message then?)
Rachael....missyc did an impromptu bithday cake for Matt's birthday. Get well soon.
Mellow and Slider and the crowd....etc...etc


Gone, but not at all forgotten....
Little Miss WRX......( too many special qualities to list) (Next year, perhaps?)

Many thanks to CW, Tav and Dave, for allowing me to passenger with them. That really is it, I must get a better car again

Till next year then

Edited to spell Rachael's name right

ScooBabe

*How much stuff can CW get in the back of his car
*Having to stop so Chris B could refuel constantly

The boys look rather dubious in that third photo!
