Event Shitefest 2016 24th - 26th June --- Lost Property

[mat_the_cat]

Starting packing, but I will be leaving tomorrow afternoon and promptly heading in completely the wrong direction. Anyone on Strava will be able to see what I'll be up to...

 

I expect to be in the field of dreams between 1 and 2 am, so if everyone has gone to bed (ha!) I will endeavour not to wake you up (which may be somewhat tricky with a throbbing V8).

[beko1987]

Yes, if raised. We reckon we could find bricks and tin sheets to protect the ground.

Ive got a smallish paving slab or 2 I could bring if it helps?

[skattrd]

Will the sausage be square?

 

SVM provided sausage is usually a 4 sided polygon

 

Tattie scones same as hash browns? I was confused at cobs being called barm!

 

Tattie scones are not hash browns ... http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/1219633/potato-scones

[bub2006]

Ahhh OK. Thought I'd ask!

[320touring]

I fucking hate my job.

when you due to pass glasgow? Bro and I may be leaving 3ish

[hairnet]

Will the sausage be square?

Fkin hope so

 

Tattie scones and soda and potato bread pwn hash browns

[M'coli]

Douvrin stove and sleeping bag in the car, the rest tomorrow morning.

[ruffgeezer]

I've got the camping stove and a couple of spare gas canisters in the truck, I must remember to find a pan for it though!

[Richard]

Refused Friday off work? Check.

Staying 150 miles in the wrong direction? Check.

Worked my arse off all week to make sure I'm finished on time on Friday? Check.

Nice early night to prepare for the long day? Check.

Sent to a callout in the middle of the bastard night? Check.

 

Chances of making Shitefest? Next to fuck all, and even if I do I'll have been up all night.

 

I'm going to invoice work for the money I've spent on Shitefest preparations.

[Richard]

And now that I've handed in my hotel key and driven half way to the call out it's been cancelled.

 

On the plus side I should make it to SF after all, but I'm going to have to sleep in the van now.

 

I have done the work for tomorrow on my own time, so I'm going to head straight down the road as soon as the paperwork is signed.

[wuvvum]

I can't find my airbed anywhere.  Or the pump for that matter.  Might have to buy a new one from Tesco in the morning.

[Richard]

Asda have a single airbed for £10 or a double for £12.50, or either with a hand pump for £2.50 more.

Something for a wet/drunken evening

 

All the gaps are the names of cars and trucks of UK or USA origin some current, some ancient.

answer (1) is NOT Wartburg

 

 

This should start a few arguments !

I can't find my airbed anywhere. Or the pump for that matter. Might have to buy a new one from Tesco in the morning.

Tescos near me have single airbed for £5 and double for £7.50.

 

I will be bringing a very good German airbed pump my dad found washed up in a pile of driftwood on a beach in the Outer Hebrides, you are more then welcome to use it!

I was going to clean the car before leaving, but as I'm about to park it in a muddy/dusty field for 2 days, fuck that.

[beko1987]

Its a lovely morning 22 miles away...

 

Just realised I haven't got a chair for today... Will have to swing past amys brother in laws tomorrow after the train and grab one I think!

[quicksilver]

The sun is shining here in Buckingham. Will be on my way to the field of dreams this afternoon. Much excite!

[The Moog]

One of my dogs is poorly and need to do vet duties today. Will have to come down tomorrow for the trains and the Saturday evening quiz.

 

Have fun tonight

[dollywobbler]

It's bloody lovely here today. Marvellous!

[davidfowler2000]

Scotland has achieved Tehehehebay.

 

Breakfast time

[hairnet]

Will be looking for breakfast in sunny leics after I've finished my brew

 

Then nimble down

[explosive-cabbage]

I've had my Rabies vaccination.

 

I am prepared for Shitefest.

[dollywobbler]

Bring suncream. It's scorching!

[dollywobbler]

By the way, if you arrive in the next couple of hours, you may not find any e here. We're going shopping.

[beko1987]

I'm leaving in about 10 mins! I've packed about 4% of the stuff I took to sf 15!

[JohnK]

My plans have not gone to plan. I hoped to do a bit of a collection mission beforehand but that's been postponed.

 

This has left a last minute scramble to get one of my other cars ready to go, after a decision was made on which one to go for I then found out the replacement part needed to get it usable was the wrong one. Some modification later and we are sorted, nearly ready to go!

[hairnet]

To do this I did this

 

 

 

Most b roadage after butty

[Skizzer]

Jaguar has rewarded me for lavishing praise and attention on it by FTPing this morning.  Bastard.

 

It's only a flat battery but I've got nothing handy to jump it off, so the battery is now on charge in the house. This will delay departure.

 

I did 40 miles in it happily yesterday so it's not been standing, and I didn't leave the lights on so it appears to be some sort of electrical fault that's drained it.  Either that or the alternator has packed in.  Joy.
