Just in time to mow and roll the grass, by the look of it!

It is an example of what needs to happen in your orchard as the mower falls into the holes.

Ive just checked my reader and ive got the daewoo adaptor and it reads the matiz but only showing engine and another module (sensing and diagnostic ) which was listed under the Body icon . 

Shall I bring it anyway?

 

Would airbag come under Body? I'm not that fussed, so if you bring it, we can have a play. If you don't, we can just have a natter.

I have arrived in Devon. Biblical rain on the M5 made 30mph feel dangerous! Sunny now though.

[ruffgeezer]

Sorry, won't make it. 

[dollywobbler]

Was nice in Wales...

[beko1987]

It's nice in Oxfordshire atm. 

Id leave at midnight tonight if I wasn't meeting up with Mr Nyphur en route for some hot shitely action, and it being very dark when I arrive

[Six-cylinder]

First spot, Crediton Morrisons.

Mr 6C has met Roy the most important man in the Club. The rain has so far passed Cheriton by; I've been watching the rainfall radar and well within 5 miles must have had a soaking

The lady with the e28 525e offered it to me a while ago but Mrs K was with me so you know how that went.  In many ways a more sensible car than the M5 which should make an appearance on Saturday morning  or be a Shitefest fixer up

Am I first, what is the prize!

I'm still about 50 miles away. I wanted to see the sea but kept missing it.

So far my B road only route has been 313 miles, for a journey that is 141 miles down the motorways/A roads.

[beko1987]

Does this mean that whatever happens now Chris can take the talking to from Roy? And we are all safe? 

I've been browsing Facebook and there's a beautiful Hoover Turbopower in Torquay. Bloody hour away though, it's only 40 miles!

It's all about the journey! Torquay has some nice coastal roads. If it's sunny down there, go enjoy it a tad.

Take Bucketeer down to Torbay, two birds with one stone, he see the sea and you get a turbopower

Bloody good idea, @Bucketeer, fancy a romantic drive Saturday morning? Could have chips by the sea

[Six-cylinder]

I am still sat in Morrisons car park and it is the place that keeps giving!

The car next to me left to reveal the Matiz so I got out to photograph it and Saab 9000 on P plate drove between us.

[kirton]

Chris, if you are at a loose end tonight feel free to look in; house at the top of the hill on the way in to Cheriton

by the 30 sign with white camper on the drive and C3 Picasso and CRV mk1,  plenty of parking room

[Ghosty]

JohnK is somewhere in the Midlands collecting the out transport.

Talking to from Roy

Roy has accepted my assurances about the good behaviour I saw at  SF18&19 and is quite happy about the meet,as are the other Committee members, you'll have to listen to the grump about the weather so far spoiling his work plans for the pitch

Tbh if Roy turns up tomorrow he'll find out how well behaved we all are anyway! 

Plus Chris hosted SF16 so has a fair idea how much we trash the place...

Was it him on the tractor? The driver did wave.

This van was in the car park.

[beko1987]

Is that a knackered axle or just parked on a slope?

Take some money for the car parking there's few free spaces anywhere near the sea front and those that are are time limited and the traffic wardens patrol very frequently. Ask me how I know.

For those coming from the north:  local road news says the A3072 from Bickleigh to Crediton is closed just on the Crediton side of the hump back bridge which is 100m from the turn off the Exeter road and may be for a good few hours. If this is correct immediately over the hump back bridge a local road goes straight ahead to Cadeleigh; keep going on this road and about 1m past Cadeleigh there is a road to the left for Cheriton, then 100m down there is another left to Cheriton.  If the A3072 is blocked there will be a lot more traffic than usual and this section is definietely 20mph territory, narrow road with limited passing places, blind bends etc.  Or you can go through Thorverton and experience a different set of similar roads.

Have a look at the map so you have an idea where the roads go.

[beko1987]

Will that affect anyone coming from Tiverton?
