Not sure i'll be able to make it either now.

I'm going down to Wigan tomorrow to work and if i don't get done tomorrow i'll be stopping over to finish it on Sunday.

So if i get my finger out, i'll get back in time hopefully.

So i maybe there and maybe not.

I was looking forward to it as well.

Just means if i do make it, i probably won't have time to clean the car.

Just don't tell her....

@ PP. Not to worry, we'll probably not be able to drive much anyway if it doesn't stop raining. Maybe you'll be able to make the next one in the summer.

Had a quick drive on part of the route and all seems good. So route finalised and looking forward to some dry weather, and some good company.

I wanna drive! i don't care if its raining! remember , my car goes round corners

I'll remember to put on my Hovercraft conversion before I set off...

I drove some of the route yesterday and the roads were ok really in light of how hard it was raining, so lets roll.

Definately still doing the driving bit, hope you like the route.

Dont' worry hebrew I can't see my car staying clean by the time I get down to Penrith.

Sorry folks but i'm probably going to have to pull out of this :( Hope you all have a good time, remember to post pics:)

Damn, and i was looking forward to showing you how the plane can take off from a treadmill...... lol

Blimey that would be a long meet:rofl:

I have asked SWMBO on more than one occasion if she'd like to come along on one of our meets and her answer always goes something like this, " Why would i want to go on one of your gay Skoda conventions with all your gay Skoda mates doing gay Skoda stuff? Ask me again and i'll pull your nipples off and stick them on your eyelids..... get a life you freaks!"

I think she's coming round to the idea though, maybe next year.... she's a bit stessed about the wedding at the moment.... lol!

If it's a 'gay' thing, the SWMBO won't need to get stressed about any wedding....

Almost forgot - I can't make it tomorrow as I've double-booked wiith the in-laws and ended up down in 'Sunny Scunnie'.

Oh well. Have a good time in the sun.

I'll be there... although I've just eaten a curry, so won't vouch for my stomach!

Just had a look outside and its not raining here so i'm off outside to give her a wash (the car, not SWMBO!). Bit hung over so the fresh air and exercise should sort me out. See you guys later with a nearly clean black Fab!

About to clean mine in a minute. I've had a curry as well last night too. See you all soon.

The thought of arguing the toss about the plane on the tread mill is proving too alluring (and the rugby pitch is flooded so Nathes tornament is cancelled:P). Before I set off on a 120 mile slog, can someone confirm the weather up there, not worth it if its pi$$ing it down .

Andrew

Is kind of drizzling at the minute with a little mist in places. Forcast is to stop raining but stay cloudy

right, I'm gonna go check the car over, tyre pressures oil ect... I'm gonna give it a pressure wash, not a "proper" wash, so it doesn't look quite SO bad see you all soon!

En route guys...

Car wash complete, now going to the shower. Looks likw I may have a parent on board for some of the driving so will take it easyish in places.

I'll be leaving around 11 30.

ok, got back, was a good meet, some really nice roads, and a lovely carvery at the end! nice to meet a few new faces, as well as the old ones.....

a couple of pics..
