Time for a cuppa. 

[PicantoJon]

It's definitely Shitefestday, I'm up so early even the cat is giving me funny looks.

[Sunny Jim]

Ah, sub-optimal. Hope you make it!

Safe travels everyone.

[captain_70s]

Looks like we've got ourselves a convoy 

[brownnova]

Many Volvos departing Scotchland for the land of dragons! 

[PicantoJon]

Disappointed that my Picanto won't be able to make the pilgrimage but le dadwagon Citroën will have to do.

Not pictured is a rather lovely looking 106 parked just down the street that I'd love to acquire... 

[beko1987]

It's shitefest day! I don't have to do anything until 10am though 👌

[twosmoke300]

Bike looks out the window at the weather and things - balls to that 

[MrsJuular]

Good morning everyone!

Weather in Wales is currently wet and steamy

So a good Scottish breakfast to start the day is required

 

[beko1987]

I'm sat in my garden in the light rain before setting off just to appreciate light mild rain for the last time... 🤣

[BL Bloke]

Yesterday the 205 got a tankful of E5, a run through the car wash and the fluids and tyres checked. It's pouring down with rain here so it looks like I'll be having a fun* drive. 😒

[83C]

Had something come up so I’m not going to make this unfortunately. 

Bugger.

[dollywobbler]

Have fun everyone. I can only apologise for the weather, which has been tremendous for weeks...

More seriously, some parts of Wales have a weather warning for wind and it looks like thunderstorms are also likely. Stay safe folks. I'm sure you'll have fun regardless.

Can I just say all you lot that got.up.in.the 

Middle of the night to head for Wales

 

Are insane

(phone sucks)

[MrsJuular]

With this lovely weather a gazebo is being erected to aid (maybe) keeping dry.

[High Jetter]

I see the empties are piling up already - or did someone bring contributions to the load that will be dumped into one unfortunate shiter's vehicle just prior to departure?

No the drinking had begun around 11.30am before we arrived.

[chodweaver]

Wussing out on account of dreary weather, a total lack of preparation for it and no tent.

Have fun, all!

[wuvvum]
