SF17 - Bubble Car Museum: insert photos/memories here


Recommended Posts

Posted

I am assuming bubblecar museum is Saturday morning? Sorry been out of the loop for ages.

 

Anybody coming from London-way fancy a gratuitous convoy / 'rolling roadblock'?

Google maps time is 2:10 and we may be traveling with Chaseracer's 2CV.

So 2:30 seems reasonable.

 

Given that the Truckers is 20 miles in the wrong direction for you, shall we convene at Corley services, time TBC?

I am bringing a Lorne for Mr Barefoot. Anyone else want their own personal SCTSH_FOODS?

Thx Joe/Alex etc ... It'll be good to catch up with some familiar faces.

 

What time are serving breakfast Andy? ... Not that I'm only visiting for Sctsh fud, but you can't say no to some square on a bap :D

 

edit: Espace MOT is now in the hands of the garage/tester, place bets now. Small French shite collection from Essex has been postponed until Sunday, so I doubt you'll see that.

The way I'm looking ill have a few asda valu tins of all day breakfast and some valu lager! But it'll be worth it! Might have to nip out once vacs and cash have changed hands!

Oil change and filters done on the Astra dizzler today, so I'm ready. Will drive up early Saturday and being soft I've got a B&B booked, even though I'll be in a campable estate. It'll also stop me getting roaringly drunk mat the cat style, as don't want to be hungover for the drive home!

I'll be driving up on Saturday morning from Stansted so going up the M11 & A1 route. Sadly not in my shite Merc as can't find the time to get the brake pads changed and the MOT sorted, so going up in the less than shite Saab.

Any chance you would box them for a courier at my cost as i have no chance of SF17?

 

Aye, can probably sort that. I'll look for something suitable then drop you a PM.

Andy, if it's not inconvenient and you're passing by somewhere suitable, could I please have maybe a quartet of steak and haggis or haggis and haggis pies/pasties please​?

I will furnish you with the requisite monetary recompense and undying gratitude upon your arrival.

HAGGIS PASTIES??!

 

Ooh gwan then, put me down for a couple, Andy.  And two pies, pliz thankyoo.  Sassenach currency shall be yours.

No one told me about haggis pasties either.

Could I have three please.

Electric hookups ordered.

Ahh, so that's what EHU means, electric hook up. When I spoke to her about possibly arriving early she said 'fine, just pitch up but avoid the EHUs. I genuinely thought it might be a typo and that there were wandering Emus to keep clear of.

Excitable Human Units- I have booked them for the Saturday in case everyone is miserable. They were an upgrade from

Dave, I was thing of this route with no motorways

Good plan, though the Dyane's OK on motorways.  

 

Suggestion: the middle route is less urban, avoids Nottingham altogether, and means we can all meet at Tamworth services.

I'm gonna have to write a list at this rate... I'll see if Haggis pies are doable, leave it with me!

Cheers Andy. The haggis pies and pasties seemed pretty prevalent on the East coast, in all CO-OPs and suchlike, but don't bother on my account if it's gonna cause any aching of the balls at all.

If you use Waze you can send your ETA to people in your phone book. Might be a good way to arrange to meet.

Feeling very lazy at the moment, rather than clean it myself I've just invested a large £6 for a outside clean in readiness for Saturday...

My car will not be clean at all. I don't care at the moment either!

 

If we do wash the beige BX I might foam and wash mine, then again I might not.

 

Still not 100% sure I'm even bringing detailing stuff tbh
