(very) Northern counties repatriation mission

[NorthernMonkey]

And here we go again.

First train of several today, heading to the Volvolands.

[Christine]

 Aberdeen  ? You're fetching the invacar home for Dez aren't you ?  

[NorthernMonkey]

Just outside Aberdeen…

Its going to be a long couple of days 🤨

[Christine]

You'll never fit in it .

Is it Yellow?

[Christine]

Dez must be so happy . He just wants his invacar back , It's been years ..

 

Or it could be a bmw drophead  auto.

Nope, it’s a rather fetching shade of blue!

[NorthernMonkey]

Never realised how many bloody stations there are on this line 

[Split_Pin]

Safe travels! 

[NorthernMonkey]

Welcome to Preston, where McDonalds doesn’t open until 09.00!

Does Fairtrade taste anything like coffee?

Lovely sunny morning here in Aberdeenshire, ideal for a pre collection inspection.

It’s blue, up near Aberdeen, it’s got an odd number of wheels and an unusual transmission set up.

How many clues do you lot need?? I can’t make it much more obvious…

It’s actually decent coffee…I’m not a massive fan of Greggs usually but I get a free cup every week with a banking app I use and this is quite nice.

There were six of us in the shop at 07.00 and I was the only one not wearing a train company uniform! 😂

I'm told my my other half that Greggs hot chocolate is better than any other chain (posh ones included)! 

If this is REV - I'm excited to see the journey and eventual re-uniting. 

[NorthernMonkey]

I’ll try the chocolate next week then 👍

That'll be on the way back then ...

Remember folks, not necessarily all of the wheels are touching the ground or even fitted. My E46 has an odd number of wheels, as an example.

Chodspeed, whatever you return in. Or on. 

[NorthernMonkey]

Mrs NM is finding this whole carry on hilarious…

From the comfort of her office at home, I hasten to add… 🤨

[NorthernMonkey]

Someone has got too much time on her hands, me thinks? 🤔

That really suits you.

[NorthernMonkey]

As long as there’s a cup holder, it’ll be fine 👍

[comfortablynumb]

Why not go the whole hog and take it to visit @Dyslexic Viking?🤣

[Supernaut]

Well, I haven't sold anything as far as I'm aware.

I'm going to take a punt that he's going to a certain farm vaguely in the general vicinity of Laurencekirk.

[wuvvum]

[NorthernMonkey]

And onto the next train at Edinburgh heading even further north.

This may well be the pinnacle of comfort on this excursion.

It's only a little over 1600 miles one way so why not.

Good stuff. If you need anything, let me know as I'm not far away and working from home today.
