Collection 2: Judgement Day

[sdkrc]

Commensurate with last week's absolutely retarded 3-day, FTP-packed collection, I have a worse collection tomorrow. This one is considerably more poorly planned.

All the dominos to ruin my life are set in place. Tune in at 7am tomorrow for the first of 6 legs. 

[grogee]

Shit just got real! 

Fucking ace, I've set my alarm. 

[loserone]

I have all my fingers crossed for you.

I expect that a call to potentially A frame you to Weardale is probably unlikely, but whatever assistance I can be I shall be.  Also, Express available for loan should that be useful.

[Sham]

Wait, is this the one where the car is made of liquid metal? Or the one where it's held together with hopes and dreams, and overly strained cable ties?

You don't much like getting a rest at weekend do you 😁

[sdkrc]

Me waiting for the aircon to kick in tomorrow

[big_al_granvia]

Good luck mate, may all the motoring gods be with you

[Flat4]

Chodspeed for the morning!

[sdkrc]

First leg: drop easy-to-steal car with no locks at train station 

 

Second leg: get train into town

....nope. Turns out the itinerary I planned last night was using Saturday's train schedule. Bus it is. I have 31 mins to walk a 40 min journey. I ran about 2 miles and I'm a sweaty mess but made it

[Schaefft]

Off to a good start then, chodspeed!

[HMC]

Chodspeed!

[cort16]

Good luck, remember 1 mans misery makes a whole forum feel better about their life decisions so we're counting on you!

Is that the Business Class fare? Free champers?

[Twiggy]

Good luck ! I hope it all goes well.

Leg 4: PLEN

[Rustybullethole]

Serious dedication!!!!

[sdkrc]

I'm seeing subtle signs everywhere

[EyesWeldedShut]

If you're not off to the Outer Hebrides then I'm guessing Devon?

[big_al_granvia]

Flying to Exeter?? Better than the choo Choo

[grogee]

Bloody hell this is a luxury collection thread. Bloody plane! Whatever next, hovercraft? 

I don't know what is being collected. Hopefully something French with 'executive' on the bootlid.

If this is what I think it is, good luck A-framing it with anything this side of a bus.

Do you think it would exceed 750kg as an unbraked trailer?

Now there's an idea - trying to surreptitiously lash an A-frame behind a Megabus without anyone noticing for an easy* and stress-free* journey up the M5/ M6...
