[explosive-cabbage]

Settle is the way forward.

Lets not commit to times etc, god knows how long its going to take to pull all your Discoverys out....

[gdhaydock]

In precisely a weeks time, I will likely have a hangover and be trying to focus on a map with a group of chod drivers pestering me to lead them to the lanes.

 

Anyhow need to exhume the beer fridge from the shed and check it still works on gas.

 

Then need to exhume the caravan from its resting place of the last 12 months and drag it home ready for preparation (well, charge the battery and check the fridge works)

[gdhaydock]

Settle is the way forward.

Yes the discoverys may struggle whilst driving through a bog, whilst towing a Niva*/RAV4*

 

(* delete as applicable)

[John F]

Fantastic... 4x4 rivalry developing before we've even arrived... completely in keeping with the OVROAD MONGFEST element of shitefest

 

Keep it up, lads!

 

BTW Will, some Discoveries may also get punctures on the trail of broken diffs, gearbox components and curling tongs left by the Niva & Rav4

Is it not typical for you to get a puncture every time we go out laning John ?

[John F]

Precisely. I'm just setting the scene for my next one now.

[gdhaydock]

I'll pack the jack then

[dollywobbler]

Excellent. I don't appear to own a jack, so please do!

[hairnet]

dw - moar liftkit now!!!!!!

 

 

ps ive pulled a muscle in me shoulder could be in the car......

[garycox]

I want to come so much it hurts, damn this holiday to Cornwall tomorrow!

 

Me too! AARGH.

 

Who's the most Southern (ie closest to me) person coming?

 

I expect "fucking miles away".

[explosive-cabbage]

ps ive pulled a muscle in me shoulder could be in the car......

Man up.

I heard somthing crunch in my shoulder the other day whilst having an accident pushing a trailer.

Day after I towed the Samara home with the A frame and the Niva (No power steering)

Yesterday I drove a 200mile round trip to tow my newest aquisition back from near Durham.

 

Grow some balls man!

[hairnet]

difficult to work when you cant raise arm above head

 

difficult to travel when cant stretch arm out in front to grab handlebars

[KruJoe]

 

 

Take no notice of him, Hairnet. Isn't he a meanie?

Do come in your car. I hope it's nice and shite!

Or take a week to recover and ride the bike to WIN!

 

 

 

Who's the most Southern (ie closest to me) person coming?

 

Brighton, right?

I've just been through the thread so I miss nowt, and I think Angry Dicky may consider a car-share. Send him a PM..? He's Essex based, from memory. Sod it - PM coming to both of you...

[KruJoe]

Right then, everyone else... please look out for a PM from me about your attendance. Due to the big numbers, I'll need your email address (one you check regularly, I won't share it), PMs won't work as my inbox will clog up very quickly.

Please reply to the message ASAP. Thank you!

 

(JohnF, I'll copy you in so you know what's going on.)

[hairnet]

stalked by joe

 

 

ARRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH

[vulgalour]

There are worse things to happen to you.  At least Joe is easy on the eye, unlike some of you lot.

[KruJoe]

eh? Joking, right?!

 

 

 

OK folks, all PM's sent. If you want to come along, but have no message from me, please post below...

[vulgalour]

I have been drinking...  it happens.

[explosive-cabbage]

I havnt got a PM am I uninvited??

[mouseflakes]

Would it cause a kerfuffle if I just turn up? Never really sure what I can commit to week to week.

 

So's not to upset planning, I'd bring my own bog roll and what have you.

 

Would be in an L300 Delica with very rusty roof.

[John F]

No, feel free to just rock up.

 

It makes it easier for us to know at least rough numbers of who is coming though, as Joe needs to sort out the catering side and I'll need to screen off part of the field for camping since there's target sports going on in the same field.

[KruJoe]

Expletive_Babbage and Mouseflakes now have the same PM.

 

Will, just so he doesn't feel left out, and M.Flakes because we'd really like you to bring the Deliciousness. (And see you again, of course!)

Further questions will follow by email, just answer what you can, don't sweat it.  

[gdhaydock]

Small bump to bring back to front page 

 

Caravan now exhumed and home.

 

4 and a bit days to go.

 

Beer still to purchase

 

Tyre to get repaired on discovery as there appears to be a 6mm bolt stuck in it, arsebiscuits

[KruJoe]

Thanks GDH. Has Will agreed with you about the lunch at ARNCLIFFE on Saturday? (Saving the detour down past Grassington.)

 

If we do Arncliffe, may I suggest a very short loop down to Kilnsey? (To let people have the experience of driving under the overhanging Kilnsey Crag.) Then cross to Conistone, and up Wharfedale from there. Probably adds 10 mins to your route.

 

 

Chodfesters - thanks for those replies so far, we now have confirmed double figure attendance, but I NEED THOSE PM'S BACK PLEASE if you want to come. Ta!

Yes Will mentioned Ancliffe, I said it sounded like a good idea, but we didn't really discuss it any further

[KruJoe]

The Falcon at Arncliffe can do butties at £4 a head, Will knows the landlord there. It's an ace old place - no pumps on the bar - simply barrels under the counter, ale is tapped into enamel jugs then poured into pint pots on the bar. Check us out, townies!

 

They want numbers for Saturday lunch...
