Is it too late to book a couple of places?

 

I could bring one of my chodmobiles and im sure Vivapower will bring his fantastically dismal looking mk 4 Escort.

I reckon at least one or two won't be a bother Rob. Let you know soon as, cheers.

cool. Ill be there and just checked with Dan and he's ok too.

 

so what time do we need to be there for?

 

I was thinking, ill bring the old van and if theyve not gone already, ill fetch all those old car mags and give them away to anyone who wants them on the day.

I'd love to come but I have to work that day, nobody would happen to be passing Ludlow on the way up the A49 would they?

 

I have a couple of faintly worthless but bulky items that other shitters would like ( Danblez and Albert Ross ) and I was just wondering if anyone could take them up for me? This plan does rely on another shitter or two who could get them even closer to Southportish and South Yorkshire after the show.

 

TIA :wink:

Hi Billy

At last I have paypal funds - I was expecting payment earlier on another item but the winning bidder is in Malta and he hadn't asked how much the postage would be - you know how it goes...

Bollocks - it has all gone horribly wrong - I have sent the money to ...will7 instead of 70. Anyone any idea how I get it back as paypal don't want to tell me.

 

OK sorted now, You have funds Billy :)

As long as they don't get together and start guerrilla knitting beige wing mirror cosies.

Cheers Billy, got my ticket today.

 

Provided I can have the day off, I'll be in the 460. I might even wash it. Scary shit, what what.

I've not got a clue what I'll be in. It's still a tight squeeze as I'll be getting back from Czech on the Saturday I imagine, but I'll get there somehow.

 

Don't expect any sanity.

All depends on what's available. I'm having a rummage to see what I can drag there if the Escort or 604 aren't available. I'll find summat suitable.

I will explain my car selection process.

 

There's two pieces of shit very few of youse know about yet. One hasn't got a front end, the other is elsewhere. A bit like my ex and her long term on again off again on again meathead boyfriend.

 

Citroen C4.

 

Too new but French enough. (NEXT)

 

Volvo Amazon

 

Previous entrant but a no show this year because of front floorpan, sill and brake line FAIL. Plus my inability to organise anything for two years or find a 'restorer' who won't either spuff it full of filler and \ or dismiss it because it's 'not an aircooled VW'. It does have a new radiator now but that needs fettling because FATHA_WATANABE filled it up with 200 parts coolant to one part water. For why, I know not.

 

Peugeot 305.

 

Poster boy for the AS banner and last year's 'Most full of rainwater' award, it sits forlorn on Rallye steels, sulking in the UoS courtyard while the cunt from the unit across intentionally rams SCTSH_ANDY'S AX to make some kind of point. Of what, we know not. Andy's shit is everywhere and the unit is full of crap, so it can't go inside yet. It does at least have yellow 472 bulbs and some fake Serck U Like plates. It doesn't run, the new engine is in 3000 separate pieces at the bottom of a cellar and MM5 reckons it might need 'some' welding. Couple this with a total denial of spares in the UK and my abject failure to project manage and \ or not get distr

 

Volvo 460 Turbo

Despite some cumstain keying the rear door (which I'll try and have tidied up) this is what I'll probably turn up in. Race you plebs to the judge's podium, where I shall make crude remarks and cryptic gestures about Ferrari owners and their preferences over the plasterer's radio. Plus it's legal, and shit.

Yay! Cumstained 460 Turdo! What could be better?

 

Mine 'came' today too Billy, ta.

First class stamps again?! In this day and age? Some people are made of money.

My postman was greatly amused by the return address stamp (69, Shitphotography Street, DateStamp, SH1 73R).
