Event Shitefest 2018 (U.K.) Chez Saabnut 9-10th june

[Ghosty]

Then he repays us the next morning by starting the Stellar at 7am...

[bub2006]

Please do! I'm wanting to plan, and I don't usually do that! Your below me aren't you in the country? Maybe we should meet and go to cannock on Thursday and go from there?

 

I've got something to give to bub, but if I don't make it over due to changes of plans I'd like to ask a midlands person if I can drop it off for a future Shitely/meet

Something to give to me? I'm confused and slightly bewildered!

[beko1987]

Something to give to me? I'm confused and slightly bewildered!

That's because you don't know yet, I haven't told you... Sorry!

[bub2006]

Ahhh ok then! I thought memory was playing up again!

[beko1987]

No, your ok today! It's a surprise, I'm just trying to form a backup plan incase I don't come past you en route!

[bub2006]

Mmmm ok now I'm concerned!

[Ghosty]

Beko, are you about next Weds?

Bub, are you going to be at Northern Powerhouse in a couple of weeks?

 

If so I can help.

[beko1987]

I'll be at work, but Amy may be in/I can leave it in the garden. Thame or Marlow?

[Ghosty]

Doesn't make too much difference, would have to come past Marlow to go to Thame. I'm heading north from Basingstoke.

[beko1987]

Very true. Either works for me, no money is changing hands so I can either take it to work with me and meet you in Marlow or leave it in the garden in thame! Daz, you going to the powerhouse thing?

[bub2006]

Depends on date. I'm still confused as to what's occuring!

[beko1987]

Your going to an event, congratulations! And picking something up that I'm giving you along the way.

 

Depending on where everyone is meeting on Friday morning I may still swing by and give it to you in person. It's all a bit up in the air atm, and I'm trying to avoid zig zagging the country!

[Ghosty]

SVM seem to be meeting at Tebay, might be a place to meet.

Just a thought, we could use the Northern Powerhouse meeting point about 15 miles SE of Manchester? It's not the most northerly but has Travelodge, a Wetherspoons etc.

[beko1987]

I'm up for staying somewhere Thursday night! Would like to go to Tebay as well! Maybe I should drive to yours Thursday morning Max and we go from there!

[bub2006]

You can still camp at mine Sam. I'm 35 miles ish if beautiful country roads from ghostys pad

[Ghosty]

I don't have camping facilities! Gonna have the roofers in that week too.

[beko1987]

I'm hoping we will all sleep a bit more north than Manchester! Could probably go to yours, have a cuppa then on to elsewhere though. Will see what plans out!

[Guest Hooli]

You'd get to meet Blu Sam.You've seen guide dogs right? well Blu is Bub's thinking dog

[beko1987]

If its the same dog he had when I bought the Xantia we are already very acquainted!

[Guest Hooli]

I expect so, I think Blu is about 7?

[beko1987]

Slobber more than it's owner when it see's a pie?

[Guest Hooli]

Not sure that's possible. Idiot cuddly staffy mutt.

[beko1987]

Yea, but enough about daz, we're talking about his dog...

[Guest Hooli]

Ah yes, same but higher IQ

[Ghosty]

Hmmmmm. So we want to be up Aberdeen for mid-late Friday? I'd say aim for the Scottish borders late Thursday if that's true. It makes no difference to me anyway but I'd like to be up early as it's all part of the fun for me.

Sounds like I'm going to be running round a lot in the week before though - I've got a car to inspect, service and clean up in six days before!

Who's interested in a convoy Thurs/Fri then?

[Tam]

If I had a spare day to get to Shitefest say leaving from Glasgow. I would take a totally crazy and impractical route (surely the A.S. way?) as detailed below. Very scenic in bits

[Ghosty]

This is exactly the kind of thing I was thinking of

[bub2006]

Hooli,beko,feck off

[bub2006]

And yes Sam,same dog. Daft muscle head who thinks he's a baby.

[beko1987]

 

I don't think I've ever done 1200 miles in one weekend before... May pussy out of the extra bit in Scotland, not sure really...
