Event C&PR Railway Visit - Driver for a fiver mug shots!

[richardmorris]

Happy news from the C&PR Railway"Having got some track into the Restoration and Education Centre (REC) our Gronk 08825 then decided it was just too good an opportunity to miss and edged gently though the door! Thanks to Andy and Dave for recording an historic moment of our first 'patient' inside the REC..."

I have a hornby one of those.

[hairnet]

I have a hornby for one of those.

[Pillock]

I had one of those too, the wheels were ever so slightly misaligned and it use to wobble amusingly around the track.

[hairnet]

is it bad ive booked somewhere to stay already

 

400m from the station

[Bear]

This looks like fun. How to I make sure to remember that I want to go and spend money on it and make sure I'm not in Iceland or somewhere else impractical?

[binhoker668]

Already eyeing up some places to stay on Saturday night with Mrs Hoker.  Looking forward to this!

Remember - Shitefest 2016 is 27 miles from Chinnor, if you are visiting Shitefest look for accommodation between Milton Keynes and Buckingham.

Grand aye - figured we're camping on the Friday?

Grand aye - figured we're camping on the Friday?

I had always expected a few Friday campers, I just need to know a time to meet the first arrives so I can unlock the gate, we don't want to leave it unlocked without anybody there. I only live 2 miles away so it is easy for me to nip up to the field.

 

I don't see problem if anybody wants to arrive Thursday or leave Monday.

[binhoker668]

Well, Thursday or Friday are good for me - whichever one involves many cars and idiots in a field really!  I guess we'd be heading off again on the Sunday...

[beko1987]

I'll probably only camp on Saturday. I live 4 miles from Chinnor, and if I;m bringing Eva with me I may as well leave home with her early, rather than drive back very early, go get her then come back to the station.

 

I'll have to decide, will see how many friday campers there are

[dollywobbler]

Definitely Friday for me. 

[binhoker668]

I'll be parking up next to you then Ian - French fancy corner...

[dollywobbler]

Hey, I might be in the Nippa... (though this seems unlikely!)

[binhoker668]

Ah no - gotta be the XM dude - i wants to compare and contrast!

[beko1987]

I'll be parking up next to you then Ian - French fancy corner...

 

I'll be there, lowering the tone!

 

Or do I pull the wildcard and bring the Meriva?

[dollywobbler]

Hmmm. If anything, it'd probably the Dyane of much dishevelment. Though planning what cars I'll be driving six months down the road is always a bit of a gamble.

[beko1987]

Don't forget folks, old/broken/unwanted hoovers r always welcome!

 

Shitely service is available too, can hold stuff at mine until the big day then en route to six-cylinders gaff we can pop past mine and pick it up if it wont fit in my boot with camping gear!

[dollywobbler]

If anyone likes lawnmowers, I can bring a knackered petrol (fuel issue) and an electric with a severed cable. 

[skattrd]

Can I be added to the list please (if it's still relevant).

 

I'd been ignoring this thread as I thought it was just a regional train meet, but defo interested if it's now gonna be SF16

There is a lawnmower bloke on here, here's a thread in the other bit about them. Same crack as me, just with mowers

Should the title be amended so people thinking along your sort of lines can start to plan?

We could do with a petrol Lawnmower at the field, the bigger the better!

The problem is nobody in charge! The offer was put on the table and nobody has presented an alternative or even said anywhere but there, so I have taken that to mean it is agreed. I will put out a SF16 attendee list soon, as the address will only be given by AS pm and NOT put up on public internet.

[beko1987]

Can we try and start one of your vehicles with vodka like we tried at SF15?

Will you have a random camper in the field who has nothing to do at all with AS and looks a bit scared over the weekend?

Do you have a swing?

This is clearly going to be Shitefest 16.  I reckon we should be aiming to get there as early as possible on Friday.  Would be very cool to have a non mot-ed snotter there too, and an mot booked locally for Monday.  A weekend-group-resto job on the Poo Disastra would be class.

[binhoker668]

Said Astra would also be great to have the Autoshite logo properly muralled up the sides and used for meets.

I'm at work.  I have these passing fancies...

[stephen01]

I may be up for this, on the assumption that I'm not working in france.

This is the Railway Visit list, I will add a second list for SF16 which will include Questions like camping or day visitor, just give me a bit of time to think about what I need to know. While these events are the same weekend Railway visitors don't have to attend SF16 and likewise you can go to SF16 without visiting the Railway.
