Those are some seriously value plane tickets. Can be 60 quid to get to Dublin from Newcastle.

A bully-bargain when you consider how close to departure I booked them.

[Jim Bell]

Nobody can be tired when they're running on Gregg's. 

Prepare for the SECOND WIND 

(and a shit in about 20 mins, whether you're ready or not)

[barmatt]

Any collection involving early morning ( late night) planes, buses and automobiles is epic.

Chodspeed Sir, looking forward to updates.

I'm hungry now.

Fuck it. I'd normally have a tea at this juncture, but an black Americano is required. I wish the sausages were far away, but they're not.

You bastard, that looks fucking tremendous.

[Jim Bell]

Is it a French?

[bangernomics]

I’m close to a poo myself with this level of excitement. Reveal it.

[Daviemck2006]

The sandwich has made me hungry. Away to buy sausages and bacon.

Top shiting

[w00dy]

Very jealous. 

Those velour armchairs look just the thing for a long trip on a miserable day.

[barmatt]

Oooh nice, top bombing.

[Jim Bell]

Clear the roads. 

Gentleman of impeccable taste coming through. 

[Jim Bell]

Video of you spinning round in the swivel seats like a stone cold Bond villain please. 

[davehedgehog31]

A gentleman who appreciates the finer things in life right there. 

[djoptix]

Yes, it's gone to Mr Honda, the nutter.

Car obviously knew it was going, the bloody rear drum stuck on when Eddie tried to leave with it. I had to tap* it with a hammer for (honest) only the second time ever.

I hope it does him, and probably some other Shiter in a few months when he passes it on, proud. It's been a good ol' bus for me.

[Eddie Honda]

 

Third slash of the day - Forton. Nae jobbies yet - ultimate trucker sphincter control.

Only stopped cos I need some fuel. Gonna chuck just enough to get across the Lakes and fill up properly tomorrow.

[eddyramrod]

What time should I expect you?

[Eddie Honda]

I think I've overshot you Eddy. Just got in the gate (J44).

I've got a couple of hours left in me, which isn't bad going for being up since noon yesterday.

If I make some progress tomorrow I wouldn't mind popping out for a brew, just let me know what biccies to bring.

[eddyramrod]

Yes, if you're at 44 you've left me way behind.  I'm at 36, and even then it's a good half hour each way!  You head for home, it's fine.  Now get your head down! :)

[00833827]

Nice bus. Well wear!

[stuboy]

question is will it fit in the hull of the plane

[Eddie Honda]

Useful and as practical as it is, it's not going to Ireland - I'd be dry bummed for taxes as it is, and completely ridden raw from January.

I may take a few Stena trips to regain my status and access to the "hairnet" plus lounge.

Anyway. Priority this morning was to fix the washer jet that came a cropper in the Safari Park, so I nipped round to Michael Douglas's... 

Only found one other gear knob that was starting to split at the front anyway so just got the jets. He knows my face, so said I could just have them, but I insisted on leaving a quid for the tea boat.

Might go back for some other bits like a motor for the roof glass, but I really shouldn't get distracted like this! Great place for older chod.

That’ll take a full sized motorcycle in the back, surprised you didn’t ride there.

[Eddie Honda]

I need the bike for work and the ferry is £52 one way and the petrol to get here about £30, plus having to take the screen off the RT. I need to bring other stuff in the back!

I momentarily considered a detour to the M60, but remembered I despite needing a spare set of wheels for work (if the job overruns) while I do the clutch on the RT, I don't have any money left for a Townmate!

[Eddie Honda]

Managed to flog some stuff on Gumtree and now getting ready for boat run one.

Gaffer tape - check

Damp proof membrane - check

Screwfix gaffer tape - check

One half of a 6ft wide divan base.

+40cm to height. Fuck it lets shove the other half up there. (+80cm, checks ticket, no issue on height being 2.6m)

Wrapped over, taped up rear (the tape is a bit shit btw 3/10)

Hmm, think I'm going to rotate this so I can tape up the front end...

[Eddie Honda]

Oh and the V5C arrived in the post this morning. DVLA 11/10 would use again.

[Eddie Honda]

Place your bets now for either a tug from Police Scotland D&G division or an invasive customs inspection at Cairnryan...

[Eddie Honda]

Well saw two plod around Dumfries. No interest. No silly questions at Cairnryan either.

[djoptix]

Love this! Great to see it in use.
