ruffgeezer Posted April 15 Share Posted April 15 The go case is packed, the PC is one, and true to @barefoot form, as we had only a coffee for breakfast, we've had to chase the bus for 10 miles as it came by early. privatewire, Saabnut, The Moog and 8 others 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruffgeezer Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 Caught up to the bus. Now the fucking thing gets stuck behind a crop sprayer. PC - 01 with a hint of post match farts. Tickman, The Moog, mk2_craig and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruffgeezer Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 Breakfast rectified, quite tasty but I think we paid more for the nice decor than the quality of the food. Five quid for one over done sausage and a fried egg in a bap - hmmmmm. Oh yes, today's collection is a team effort which is just as well as we have dumped a car in Horncastle after a brief bus chase... stuboy, Marina door handles, grogee and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruffgeezer Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 Ready for departure, itll be a Class 170 heading west. (From Australia apparently ) Little Miss RG is rather excited to be on a train... mercedade, stuboy, Dyslexic Viking and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruffgeezer Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 On the way we spotted this rather sorry looking truck, just short of Collingham station. The station house at Collingham is a grade 2 listed building built in 1848, featuring Gault brick, Welsh slate roofs and currently, Merseyside windows. A shame to see it in such a dilapidated state.

It seems to be standard fayre for many historic, listed properties - let it rot then flatten when too far gone. 😕 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruffgeezer Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 We are on service 2 of 3, speeding through the countryside on a rather busy Azuma. Not much of not is happening save for an occasional stink eye from the gent we displaced with our reserved seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruffgeezer Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 You're not wrong, but she has enjoyed a trip on the train. Collection has been achieved - it's a cheap old bus but there is plenty of work to be done so , it needed to be really.

ruffgeezer Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 She's a thirsty beast so a quick drink for her and a visit to the chippy for us before we turn tail and head back to the People's Republic of Lincolnshire.

ruffgeezer Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 Home safely via the chippy in Scarborough, full road test report later as we have it. The V70 we hastily dumped when chasing this morning was collected, on the way home, unscathed.

ruffgeezer Posted April 15 Author Share Posted April 15 OK so the drive back went pretty well, having topped up the fuel when leaving Scarborough, we soon discovered how shite the wipers were, as this occurred as we made it to Musham Bank. It was fairly sunny before and after, hence the shades. The exhaust on it is pretty fucked, blowing and rattling as it does, there is also a shagged droplink on the rear, and it'll want some new tyres fairly soon.
