AnthonyG Posted February 8, 2017 Share Posted February 8, 2017 Who is the gent with the big yellow bus btw? Is it davidfowler2000? I ask because a junk shop near my folks has got a couple of Hong Kong bus books from the 1990s for £2 each. One is a sort of spotters guide with photos and bus numbers from about 1997 and the other is a pictorial of HK bus advertising with lots of bus pics, again 97 or 98. Happy to pick them up and bring them with me if a Scottish bus fan will reimburse the monies.(Assuming they'll still be there in two weeks time) davidfowler2000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidfowler2000 Posted February 9, 2017 Author Share Posted February 9, 2017 On the A5 approaching from the M6 it's on your right hand side after about 1.6 miles. If you bollocks it up then there's a roundabout at the Vauxhall dealer half a mile further down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six-cylinder Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Our Volvo 740 came back from the garage today running very well so it looks like it is going to be car of choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lankytim Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 On the A5 approaching from the M6 it's on your right hand side after about 1.6 miles. If you bollocks it up then there's a roundabout at the Vauxhall dealer half a mile further down the road. You go past the Hollies truckstop on the left first. It's not this one! On the opposite side to the Truckers Rest is a big shite/tat yard. I'm sure there's an UMM parked outside, and a couple of Minors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KruJoe Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Has anyone got a pair of coach seats or similar with belts? YES, someone has! It's a pair of seats with belts from the ex-CMS Transit camper conversion that Moog was doing. Will donated a pair to us for my sis to put in her work van, but she never turned up for me to do it. They're yours if you want them Tim, FOC, natch. CHEEEARS!!!! can't knock an offer like that. Now I'll be able to take the whole family out for runs in the countryside. Don't spose you're going to the Cannock meet?I'm not coming, but I can get the seats to someone who is... ANYONE NEAR MANCHESTER RING-ROAD OR BETWEEN THERE AND SKIPTON PLEASE HELP:Can you store a pair of ex-Moog minibus seats from this Monday morning and take them to the meet for LankyTim please? My brother Will (explosive-cabbage) will be collecting us from the airport Monday, but on the way to the airport he can drop these off if there's anyone willing. There doesn't necessarily need to be anyone at home, he can drop them over a garden wall or something. Edit, as it's short notice, I will now put this in a group PM to those I think may be on the way to MAN, just in case you're not all watching the thread. If you think you can help and you don't get a PM, please message "explosive-cabbage" on here, as I will be in "flight mode" from Sunday afternoon (returning from Thailand). TL;DR: Manc shiters HLP PLS. Ta! Lankytim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidfowler2000 Posted February 14, 2017 Author Share Posted February 14, 2017 Bloody hell!We're booked in at Premier Inn Cannock South - the one that backs on to the auctions. We booked a couple of weeks ago and got it for £32 a night but even when we've booked before on the actual week of the event it usually doesn't go above £45 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pillock Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I think we're in. The good lady and I. Callum is grumpy because he's at his dad's. He says he's always at his dad's and you're doing this on purpose. Since he goes every other weekend, can I organise the next one an odd number of weeks after this? chaseracer 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bub2006 Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I'd like that Pillock. Due to my lad not wanting to go so I need a weekend when I have not got him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vonmon Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 For those requiring accommodationering in and around Cannock: Premier Inn x 2Holiday Inn (you can negotiate this to cheaper rates than the Purple Palaces)The Cottage bed and breakfast by the chase (not a bad place, old fashioned though)Roman Way (next door to the Voxpop dealer)The Barns (nice place)Oak Farm (nice) Then you've got the surrounding towns like Rugeley, Penkridge, Hednesford has a motel called The Joshua Tree that always has live music.
