Karmic retribution for not taking a Volvo.

[wuvvum]

Stopped at Fleet services for a slash.  Weather hideous and traffic slow but car fine thus far. 

[Ghosty]

I am with JohnK.

[Saabnut]

Better be quick

[JohnK]

As written by Ghosty, I've fucked the A8 off due to issues.

Replacement transport obtained...

More in keeping with the event, surely?

[Saabnut]

It does not get better than this! The bar has been raised to a new level!

view from my comfy seat where I am drinking tea!

Oh and it has just stopped raining!

[Bucketeer]

BEST SHITEFEST CLUBHOUSE EVER!

Also, it's started raining.

I'm at sedgemoor services. M5 is fucking grim by the m4, and backed up for about 30 miles going north. 

Eta 2pmish, after food and then tesco when I get to tiverton

[Frogchod]

I can see the Isle of Wight...

I've barely been able to see the car infront for the past 60 miles!

Enjoy folks, might come down next year if I can plan ahead in time 

[New POD]

I have a meeting at 1pm, and then home in the wrong direction.  Then I have to unpack the shed and the loft and find stuff. Then have sex.  It's on my wife's calendar for 6pm lol 

Then tomorrow, pick up Dave the Estate agent, who refuses to leave at an early time. I reckon breakfast in Wetherspoons in Bromsgrove or Droitwhich as that should be about 10 am. Then arrival mid afternoon. If I had all my own way, we would be leaving 3 hours earlier and arrive in time for brunch.

I've yet to take the Stellar to a Shitefest without having mechanical worries on the way, so it would seem a common problem. Good luck, and let me know if you need any spares bringing down (I do actually have a spare oil pump as it happens, which I have no use for!)

[dollywobbler]

Hurry! It's not raining! It has been, so we've decided not to drive cars on grass. Plenty of hard standing for car campers. I bought that car and that tent 20 years ago!

I've got no mobile signal at all with Plusnet, but have found a way to connect...

[Ghosty]

M6 well fucked.

[KruJoe]

Leaving soon... do I need to throw in an A-frame to scoop up a Stellar from the M6?

[hairnet]

Tiverton Tesco for supplies

Just seen this 

And the sun's come out

[Ghosty]

JohnK says he might want to use it...

[beko1987]

I'm at Tiverton. Happy to not drive on the grass, can walk my tent down

[KruJoe]

OK I'll find space for it.

Is that an oil burning  Stellar in the background making smoke signals

[davidfowler2000]

Just leaving Cannock. M6 was borked at Stafford

[beko1987]

@hairnet are you still at tesco? 

[fatharris]

Annoyingly, I will need to park my car next to my tent for ten minutes once I arrive to plug the mattress pump into the cigarette lighter. Will be careful though.
