We must be able to smuggle Rach's baby in. If she goes last in convoy when we get there, the passenger in the first Scooby once through the gates can legit back out with their pass and give it to Rach to get in. That is such a cunning plan I'm sure the organisers haven't thought of that dont worry about the wrong registation on the ticket, just say you have got 2 Scooby's and didn't know which 1 to bring until the day.

Chris - Have you heard from Cataluyna or Nigel - do we need to make any additional stops before we get to you? Not long now!

I should be putting my new bumper on today but it so wet outside I can't even be bothered to go outside the front door
It looks like the wet weather gear is going to be needed tomorrow.

I think Chris is putting the illness on because he knows its going to wet tomorrow and wants to stay in and watch the footy.

Colin.

Chris, still okay for 8.30ish Melksham MC 'D', through lights on left. Should be there from 8.15.
Jen, Hope to tack on the back for your group as you pass through. The rain has stopped in Melksham and is drying up, lets hope it holds off.
By the way watch out for Wiltshire boys in blue on the A350.
Nigel

Cool

Hi all.

I'm a Wiltshire boy and would love to tag along from the MacD in Melksham as I'm from westbury (on the A350).

One Question...... Where is the Mac D in Melksham??????
Is it the one next to the Aldi and the Leekes department store???

I'm assuming it is.... so I'll see you all there.

Carlos

ps I'm afraid that the car will be a bit dirty as i only got back in the country tonight and am now able to go to JFest so please don't have a go!!!!

Forgot to mention.....

The local plods have a silver/champagne coloured SKODA Octavia unmarked car i've seen pulling several people over along that road in past few weeks so be careful!!!!!

It looks bog standard from what I've seen as I've been passed and it has XX's and Y's or V's inthe last 3 of the plate.

Hope this helps

Carlos

Hiya Carlos,

Thanks for the warning! I think we're going to have to take it a bit easy as there'll be alot of police about for Japfest and the football

Looking forward to seeing you at Melksham, the only directions I've got a "on the way out of Melksham on the left, past the traffic lights" so I'm hoping it's not going to be too hard to find you all

Jen

Hey Jen,

We left when the heavens opened up, and watched the footy on the tv on the way home !

Good day all in.

What happened to the Evo that went into the tirewall: was it a write off ?

And, what happened to Simon Norris's Evo. When I saw it parked up, he has trashed the side of it..

Hiya Mark,

Yeah - we left just before then I think, got back in time for the second half

No-one's quite sure what happened to the Evo, there was reports that "he just went straight on"...apparently the mechanical damage was limited, passenger and driver are shaken but ok so everything should be able to be repaired with limited damage Good news. There's a thread in General somewhere on it...

Looks like I'm going to have to a look at my poor old Scooby, if not being able to keep up with Jen was bad enough, I nearly didn't make it past 1 of the local boy racers on the way home, the embarrassing thing is he was in a 1.2 Nova saloon

Hi Colin,

Thought I'd better tell you, that whilst we were following you on Saturday morning, when you floored it (3rd gear I guess) you were chuffing out the pipe quite a bit....

Mark.

Cheers Mark, I know I could see it myself in the rear veiw mirror I'm hopeing it's just a coil pack playing up but I'm not so sure, it's definately not my Apexi dump valve that I had been blaming because it was disconnected
