I might also be able to drag a few others along too!
I doubt she has time to bake, but I still have a Golden Syrup Cake in the fridge

Shall I do my usual trick and put myself down for it and not turn up?

Hehehehe, this brings back memories (although the ambulance trip wasn't one of the good ones - got to stay in a nice warm bed though and waited on ).

CW, is the Golden Syrup from the BOGOF offer that happened a while back befor eI flew out?

Missed your Muppet Moments on the recces, there were a few sheep asking after you though FYI we are doing half of WCT3

LOL Nope the cake is not quite that old, I wouldnt have been able to resist eating it that long! It is, however, still in date, having been left over from Muppet Camp

Hiya people.

I may well be up for this if the deal on a scooby goes through this week! I hope you make me feel welcome if I come? I only live in Nantwich (cheshire) so not too far away from wales anyway. Anyone going from my neck of the woods?

Cheers,

Paul.

Cool. Hopefully I can make it and meet a few of you. I'll see what happens this week. Hopefully I can do a deal with J4CKSON on his scooby.

Cheers,

Paul.

Think I may have to drop out now as I need to finish off some work at home before I head off to the Wales Rally GB on the following Thursday.

Ah yes, Muppet Moments......please pass on my regards to the sheep and tell them that I do miss them and am thinking of them. Hehehe.

Remember at the end of the list....vodka, more vodka, one more vodka just in case, if all else fails spare vodka, emergency vodka and one vodka for good luck.

Exclamation

OK peeps listen up:

Start Details: Sat 11th Sept. Time 10:30 (ish)

This year we are using a different start!


Telford Services off M54 Junction 4 (A464)

Note that this place is new, so may not appear on your roadmap!

It sells Shell Optimax, but it's expensive so if you can fill up on the way do so!

Question

CW,

how "expensive" is Optimax at the start?

Just that there is an Optimax garage half a mile (North) off M54 J3 which has always seemed reasonable on previous WCTs.

Still, who cares if you have a decent exhaust

Prob down the A50 now they've put the M6 Toll up to £3! That way we can fill up at Uttcheter as that's usually cheap

I can meet you in the big layby at Trentham for a bacon sarni if you like, promise we are not waiting an hour for Christine this time!

Surely the postcard should be of Wales, not Brezzle?

After all the meat I have eaten tis week I might turn veggie for the weekend...
















but then again I do have a freezer full of sausages and lots of Jerk Marinade

Do you two ever use your OWN username?
