I should be on the not attending list as we're in Blackpool !

I'll be there. Possibly plus one

We'll be there........Probably with Scamp !

Who's

Orange Beastie .....

Only a few more days to go!

We can't commit to any other events at the moment, so we're really looking forward to being at this one!

Right, I'm hoping to get away from work by 11.30am tomoz.
Now, if I can get away with not washing my hair, I'll be there just after 12.... but if it does need a wash I won't be there much before 1pm (takes quite a while to dry).

Elaine.

Well i have just given my Scamp its first runout of the year along the test track that some call the M54.
Touch wood all went well, only the bits that weren't working last year are not working.

i will be using the "Wash and Go" approach so Scamp and i should be there by 12

Washed my hair earlier....... it just depends what smells it picks up at work now!


Drive safely folks,
Elaine.

Lovely pub

Lovely grub (coke)

and the company wasn't to bad either


Well done Elaine

Yes...that was mighty impressive.... a big "up" to our Southern "cousins" for making one major league effort...

Bummer.....do I need to look in the parts store?? Let me know...

with lots of Grinding noises......

Too dark to see......seemed to be drivetrain rather than engine......we'll have a look tomorrow....

Thank you to everybody for turning up we had a really good day, that then progressed into the night, and ended with a madras. Perfect!
We hope everyone enjoyed themselves as much as we did. I think I managed to speak to just about everybody, and they all seemed happy.

The G&D were a member of staff down, so they were pretty rushed off their feet at times, but I think they did alright. It's a nice pub that has very good entertainment on in the evenings...... Mmmm, I might have a word with them about a camp over when it's a bit warmer, and they've got the marquee up... Hey, Oompah night could be a laugh!

The fog was very thick in places, and must have been a nightmare for the travellers. Fingers crossed everyone got home without any events.


We're off to The Waterman for another car club meet this afternoon, if anybody's in the area... Might be an idea to text/ring us first though, sometimes we're there for hours & hours, and sometimes we only stay for a couple of drinks.


Hoping you all have a good Sunday as well.
Elaine Still woke up at 04.45 this morn & Reg.

360 mile ruturn journey,4 hours up,4 hour of wonderful warm friendships,4 hours back.Commited(or will be)to the Scamping tradition.Thanks to Reg and Elaine for a great do,we saw faces there we hadn't seen,well.....................,since Christmas.

Glad you enjoyed it they're ruddy insane those pair! We're guessing junction 22 was open then?


Elaine&Reg.

Leanne, Hattie & Jenson made it and had a great time and I sprinted home to get up to the pub for about 8:30 pm to spend some time with the remaining Scampers.

Well done Chris & John for making the effort to come oop north, I know it's a long trip from the south coast. We'll have to repay you by coming down to Hastings in a few months time.

28 people attended (i think) so a good turn out and no need to do any off-roading either, which is nice!

Yes,sorry I forgot to say thankyou to Reg and Elaine for showing us the way to junction 22(as 23 was closed),and we motored back home with no problem.

No worries, glad the sugar tanker fire didn't affect your journey home.

Elaine.

We'd forgotten to count Mark Irish and Mike Bingham.

You've obviously not driven on the A21 lately. The potholes could swallow an artic nevermind a little yellow scamp!
Thanks everyone for a great time,see you again soon. Thanks also to Chris for a thrilling journey through the fog!!
I've nearly warmed up now and my hearing is slowly coming back. Should be OK by Stoneleigh.

Stoneleigh,ahhhhh,warmer times ahead,oh know,it snows there in May doesn't it? Either that or blowing a gale!!
