Bon voyage!

[Junkman]

I'm so excited!

Mrs S is away so I'm allowed sugary cereal as a treat.

Arrrgh - flipping Flickr mobile app, posting photos is going to be a trial.

[Skizzer]

Train has been achieved. Suspicious-looking bloke in slightly 70s get-up = me.

Try imgur instead.

[Jim Bell]

I'm back to photobucket. Imgur has stopped adding img tags on the last update.

 

Give us a clue!

[Skizzer]

Speaking of the 1970s, have a pair of InterCity 125s. I'm on one of them.

 

 

New level unlocked: Rosy-fingered dawn. (Shining sea number 1 is just out of shot.)

Unless I have tons to host, I just upload direct to here these days, as and when I need them. Dead easy.

[Skizzer]

I've started uploading direct - fiddly on a phone and the mobile data signal is a bit hit and miss but it seems to be working.

 

Clue? I'm travelling from one seaside town to another to collect it.

[Six-cylinder]

To balance the number of Autoshiters in England and Wales in a few minutes I am going to leave for Wales!

 

Non collection trip and the weather means I am going for my Volvo V70 XC. We will be able to Look at Mrs Cyl Volvo 740 GLE which still need it problem with starting sorted.

[Jim Bell]

Probably a Jaguar then.

[dollywobbler]

Yup. A right faff getting photos on here while travelling I must admit. I may dig live collectioning in the future.

I'm also heading eastwards today! No collection though.

[Parky]

Are you departing your palatial home in Jaywick to collect a shonky Jag from a man in Blackpool?

Can I just say that I think your cooker looks a bit seventies and shite and that I approve of this.

PS:  Bon Chodage

[KruJoe]

Birmingham is on the east coast, isn't it?

[Skizzer]

I was tempted by the BX bike, but I've had a BX before with mixed results so it's not that. It has appeared on AS before, though.

 

In Cardiff now.

[Junkman]

It has appeared on AS before, though.

 

 

That's a bit like saying a star is in the sky.

[skattrd]

As Joe said, I find uploading direct here is easiest for live collections ... Good luck Skizzer.

Fair point. It's not a Jaguar, in fact it's a marque I have never owned before. It apparently has XJ6 levels of legroom though, according to a Car Giant Test on Trigger's glorious Flickr stream.

 

The woman across from me is wearing so much perfume that when the doors open and a blast of cold air comes in, it starts raining Nina Ricci on her.

I think I know exactly where your going Mr Skiz

 

Im sure you have it all sorted with the seller but if you need a lift for the final hurdle then let me know.....

[Parky]

Is it a stretched NSU RO80 with Ford V4 conversion?

[Parky]

Actually I am starting to have an inkling what it might be....

That's very kind of you sir! And I think you may have guessed it..

 

The seller is planning to meet me at the station, but it would be great if you were around to join in? Due to arrive at 12.53.

[Bucketeer]

Fly like a bird on an updraft of collective goodwill brave soldier and wrangle a noble steed with which your return journey be blessed and kitteny.

 

Also, Crunchy Nut Cornflakes are ace.

[billyboy406v6]

2CV ?

[Guest Breadvan72]

This has now inspired me to get out of bed and go downstairs to eat crunchy nut cornflakes.  In this way I feel that I am sharing in the mighty deeds told of in this thread.
