I'm not sure I can be bothered to full camp, so we might just be day visitors for Saturday and leave after tea. 

I think my dad's coming over as well👍

I will tell your deprived children!

[Floatylight]

Charlie wants to camp... I really don't know now! If the car gets packed tomorrow then yes. If it doesn't then yes but drive home

I will be up on Saturday, not sure about Sunday at the moment. 

@brownnova, here is an incentive to turn up: 

Dustbuster road test, from THE PAST. 

[brownnova]

Oooooooooohhhhhhhh!

I love things like that!

I'll be at Bicester too, but sadly rushing back to Wales afterwards. Have fun folks. I miss FoD shenanigans!

We may pass you on the way (but unlikely, as assuming very different parts of Wales!)

Is anybody planning to camp over tonight (Friday)?

Thanks! thats much appreciated!  ill tentatively "book" myself in for that weekend then instead!

and I apologise for any inconvenience this has caused! 

 

(and everyone else can take bets on what will screw me over this time LOL)

just thought I should mention, that thankfully (although I have probably jinxed it now!)

Euston station (and the Northern line) looks to be remaining open for tomorrow so I think I should be good for tomorrow  

ill be setting an alarm for 8AM and just leaving ASAP, trains are a bit of a mess so who knows when ill arrive at MKC LOL

Not tonight, might on Saturday.  Currently having a long day in a van.

I might... In typical last minute fashion I still haven't decided if I'm going to come up tonight or tomorrow. I'll let you know in a bit when I've got my sh1t together and collected the Landy. 

[Crackers]

Nope. Running too late (surprise surprise) so I'll come up tomorrow. 

[mat_the_cat]

We'll (for once I'm bringing my better half) be arriving Saturday evening, so see you all then!

If that's OK? I will try and make sure she doesn't savage anyone too much.

Of course it's OK for Jas to come, but tell her not to leave her toys in the field this time!

[BL Bloke]

I'll be coming down tomorrow. Transport will be the same as last week, now @Six-cylinder approved. 🙂 It even had a clean out last weekend thanks to @beko1987 letting me borrow his vacuum cleaner. 

Not sure I'll be much help with the SAAB although I did hold the funnel last Saturday when @bobdisk was emptying whatever the petrol had become into a plastic fuel can. It was interesting watching people who know what they're doing working on it though.

I suggest you try it first, suspect it will disappear at the FOD

[mat_the_cat]

We'll make sure to do some product quality testing beforehand!

[Crackers]

Inbound. 

[beko1987]

We're leaving shortly, need to go via aldi though. Eta probably an hour and a half

[wuvvum]

Not heard from my mate who I usually go to KL with so I might sack it off and trundle down to the FOD.

Shame I'm not bringing mine, it'd have been nice to compare them and swap wheels while no-one was looking.

You have to pay extra to get spoken to like that nowadays!

[beko1987]

Half an hour ago it was "you can drive on the field now but its very bumpy so I'm not taking my cars on there" 

So Eva went for a drive in my car. Its a bit bumpy but 1st gear tickover did nicely 👌

Then not 10 minutes later there's a whole fleet and photo shoot job going on 😂
