Just got home as roo said brilliant weekend,fantastic lanes even better company,Thanks to doris for leading

I unlike roo didn't get mine back in the same condition it went in,The uj on the prop was a bit iffy before its bloody knackered now,Just getting to the top of dinas mawddy and was started to mist up in the rain so adjusted blower temp next thing instant fogged screen i reckon the matrix might have gone then for some reason i had no indicaters (hoping it was water from matrix)

But the damn thing got me home :dance:

All in all another top fog weekend

Oh roo got some bulbs here for ya :wink:

Well, I'm back, fed, watered and showered

Great weekend, really great. Phil made the routes and gotta give him first mention. From there we turned lazy August camping to wild, wet offroading.

The rain did hold off at the right times, we managed two nights round a campfire, fairly dry. The wet this morining on a certian lane was if anything fitting, to do it in the dry is almost wrong. Then Happy Valley and heavy rain, that had washed a lot and was certainly fun.

I managed to fight off 2 hangovers, the car ran absolutely first class, ready to go again.

Dave, sorry to hear about your Prop, will have a dig around for my old one.

Anyone hear from our tent decorator? followed me down a shortcut never to be seen again. I truned around and couldnt find him, as the BBB has no cb I couldnt raise him.

Also our PDF expert? did you get wet putting yer tent down in the rain?

Hope everyone made it back safe, enjoyed the stay and look forward to the next outing.

were back all safe and sound sorry alex i went the dinis way home,as for the weekend it was one of the best photos to follow :dance:

Well i got home at 7.30 and had a nice hot baff :lol:

As everyone else said it was a cracking weekend wet weather and all

i would just like to thank everyone for making it a brilliant weekend, got home damage free as well it don't get much better :dance:

Will put some pitchers up tonight if i stay awake.

Again

Thanks to Sir-Doris for arranging the event,
Thanks to all of the gate openers and closers,
Thanks to Kylie for giving me a couple of tugs...ooohh eerr misses
Thanks to everyone who helped Sweary Mary get her wheels back on the ground
and

Thanks to everyone who attended the event and made it what it was, which for me was a great (half) weekend

The few photo's I have I'll post up tomorrow night when I get back from work (I'm knackered right now)

Cheers for now

Glad you all had a good time

remember the fronty of the month comp & maybe Gregsters Carnage thread :wink:

A big thanks to everyone for a memorable weekend.
I ended up coming home early (got back to the campsite to find my new tent was more like a colander than a shelter :lol:

still soaking wet even with the heater on full all the way home :lol:

)
Thanks again and hope to see you all soon at the next event

great weekend got a couple of pics. And i got soaked taking the tent down field had turned in to a lake. As for the drive home its 1240 and i've just got in had a little mishap caused bu a numpty in a honda jazz i think resulted in me doing an emergency stop in a bush fence and then a tree managed to get it out nursed it to the A5 and the rad gave in the ghost so looking for parts and a recovery truck

no siill on the a5 got to sort some recovery out in the morning. the lesson here is join a recovery company or get it with your insurance. looks like there is a lot of damage though
both lights, wing passanger side, grill rad and bumper

got an AA card if you want to go and get it

might be a good idea things dissapear from the roadside thats one of the reasons i allways have me rac card with me (thats when they say im a member GGGRRRRR)

If your involved with an RTA, then your insurance company will sort the recovery.

Just woke up :oops:

Had a great weekend, shame the weather started with a vengence today. Really enjoyed doing Happy Valley, shame that the views couldnt be seen, but hey, it's a reason to do it again :dance:

A million thanks to all that made the weekend what it was, especially Doris for leading the group I was in, and Alex for his guidance on THAT lane. :lol:

Harvey was really well behaved, he getting used to the whole tent idea now, he didn't even want to get up this morning, infact he hasnt moved since we got in, he's pooped.

haha, that picture of Colley's just proves what I always knew, I really can sleep anywhere :roll:

Jon, as I said you repaid the tugging favours by retrieving my aerial when there was nothing but water on my side of the truck, so anytime mate :wink:

Glad everyone got home safe, Jelly, sorry to hear about your car

hope you can get it sorted, and Rich, shame about your tent mate, hope Doris and Meryl survive if they stayed

I did take a few pics but the camera is still in the car with everything else, so manyana, manyana.

Sorry to hear about your truck Dave
