Cambridgeshire laning day

[Drift]

Ahha a lofty toffy Trooper
Only jesting bud

[gregster]

Its a real nice truck Ste...Dave came to the weekender and learnt how to defy gravity

How long do you think it will take to do the route Dan. We need to be home for Maci by 5pm. Would it be possible to meet at 10am. How would everyone else feel about that

[hipo1024]

I'm guessing about 4 maybe 5 hours ending up around Ely, so you know roughly how long it'll take u to get back home. 10 isn't too far from the realms of possibility so as long as everyone else is OK that's fine with me.

[Xplorer]

10 o/c meet is fine with me, don't really care as long as i'm included

[bobbinsjob]

10 would be great as it's about an hour or so back home from Ely

[mickh]

10 is good with me

[hipo1024]

The list:
hipo1024 - Sunday 30th
Ratcav - maybe
Fudge - 30th

As above...stretch and ratcav, are you coming? Just so we know to wait of not

[stretch]

I'm out i'm afraid, I think Tara needs head gasket

[bobbinsjob]

Off topic for a second. Stretch let me know if it does and when you wanna do it and we'll pop over

[andytats]

[stretch]

thanks chaps, its over heating low oil pressure and bit of white smoke.

[bobbinsjob]

Certainly sounds like it

[hipo1024]

OK well tomorrow's weather is looking to be good. So I'll see you all at Milton tescos at 10

[gregster]

What he really meant was....

OK well tomorrow's weather is looking to be good. So I'll see you all at Milton tescos at 10 , when we can start working on my truck until about 12.30, with a break for lunch and then finish it up by 2pm...and then we can go laning until I break something again...
please bring tools, spares and something to shield my freckly skin from the burning induced by the disapproving looks that my Mrs will give me as yet again the truck is bust....

[fudge]

just got back and greg you were soooo close to being true...

not a bad morning laning, and afternoon dan recovering...

and here is my pic's






only a little bit of mud


only a little scratchy





ohh no... what has dan done now



trying the redneck removal way

and mean wile.... "whats the blockage"

and then bang....


he shattered a manual locking hub....

so recovered..


and trying to hide in the grass....

[gregster]

[mickh]

Many a true word spoken in jest.

[bobbinsjob]

Sorry I didn't get any pics but thanks Dan for a great day. Even if you did break down before you even left home lol. Some nice lanes and country side. Only Dan could get stuck in a hole smaller than some in my lawn. Nice to meet explorer. Hope you got home ok with the trooper that couldn't make it mind up if it wants to run or not. Love the Arabic sticker needs to be in letters about an inch tall
The only other casualty of the day was guess who.....you got it . Dan the man. Destroyed the manual hub. Killed his winch. Then in the process of being recovered, mangled the winch mount and chassis rails omg.
Maria did get some pics n vids so will try to upload them later
