Just a little side note, with the change in numbers, is there a need to revisit the viddels list prior to going shopping on Sat?

[Wilberforce]

Pete, just had a shufti there actually...
Krusher was down for the chicken bits so if nobody else claims it, I'll get that instead of the ribs n stuff, then I think about the only missing bit is bread rolls.

Anybody want to claim ye bread rolls??

I think it's a more than that Jim - I believe Neal (RatCav) can't make it.

That is a potential 11 trucks ... good turnout!

[Retro Pedro]

Unless Paypal sorts itself out I may have to call it off as well.

Jim - this is what I picked up on - hopefully Neal is sorted and we'll see him down the woods

[Wilberforce]

Old intel Pete, lol..
'tisw looking good for seeing the ice cream van down the woods.

In other news, I've started packing. Thank Trugga I have a roofrack - four 31x10.5's on Disco rims and a small compressor in the boot, another on the roof, and Charlie & Russ are gonna have to share the back seat area with a pair of front diffs. I don't think I'm gonnae be setting any land speed records in the old gal tomorrow with that lot.

Fun, gona have a grumpy charlie tomorrow then! even more so if she realises the stuff i plan to do with the SWB

[Wilberforce]

Naah, there's still going to be plenty of room.
They're only front diff units, not the whole axles.

[fudge]

should i bring my welded block, errm sorry front diff as well then
and i have been sorting out today.
got my trailer ready for my 2/3 new wheels

[Retro Pedro]

I can flash OK now so on the deffo list - is the temperature going to go up 2moz because it wants to be a bit warmer than what it's been today doing the fettling.

[Wilberforce]

Oh I dunno Pete, it's not been too bad down here... Been taking at least 5 seconds for what comes out of the washer jets to freeze onto the windscreen.

Glad you're gonnae be coming now though Pete. I'm pretty much done and packed now. The supplies have been bought, the the seats have been fitted, all levels have been checked, the stereo wiring has been fixed, the boot has been packed (even got the diffs in there, which is a bonus) so all I have to do in the morning is sling the last wheel on the roof, then Foxtrot Oscar!

All I plan to do for the rest of the evening now is enjoy a curry, some cheese & biccies and of course a whisky or three, and remaster the CD-changer discs, cos after almost 5 years in there, they're starting to decay somewhat.

Greg, your tools are also in the boot mate, so no worries there.

[RatCav]

I am locked and loaded as well. Just have to grab some spare oil from the garage.

[Hound Dog]

We are ready to go but we are not rushing as the girls are at the grand parents (missing them like mad).

[Gregsters Boss]

Hi Peeps,

If anyone can get any charcoal can they pick some up please.

It is in short supply round here and the BBQ doesn't taste the same without it.

Thanks x

Cheers Sal for shout - I'll settle up for the cost at the meet.
I've tried Sainsbury's, Sainsbury's garage and Home Base - the best I've seen is smokeless coal but not sure if that will do that same job as charcol.
If we don't have any joys, I was thinking/hoping Notcutts sale it but it will be a bit of an eleventh hour chance,

[rospicer]

I'll have a look around but not too optimistic I might have some in the shed but not loads. If I do I'll bring it down
