Should be hard to miss us!

Editted to say I'll have PistonHeads stickers on my car, so come say hello.

I'll be in Expo along with the masonery nails and club hammer so I can attach the tent to the ground!

Not a grand fleet! A silver WRX and some Pug, 306 I think.

[jvaughan]

Im bringing a cordless drill and a large masonry bit if anyone needs to borrow it.

Btw. will probably have the large Welsh Flag with me ... so easily recognised.

Using the car is a good idea until you decide to book up to the Hyperarket to buy more beer, forgetting to untie the tent first!

[zefarelly]

ahh, yes that rings a bell seeing your flysheet dissapear up the drag strip

we managed to get into the sheds the year before last, bloody good job too considering the amount of rain we had!

AQhh I was in Mason Blanche that year watching the tents sink into the puddles of water as they developed.

Expos quite good if it does rain, as the ground is so rock hard you just get small rivers running down the hill, apart from wet feet and tongues (beer) we managed to keep everything dry ok

We were in the sheds then too! Although we kept dry the end result was that I bought a new tent which I can stand up in. Nothing worse than trying to crawl into a tent when its tipping it down.

[jvaughan]

I will be passing LM next week (off to the Loire) for a weeks drinking with my neighbours.
anyone want their tents putting up first ?

[zefarelly]

JV . . . .ha ha good call, Id say yes but aparently they have farmers markets there or something so chances are it'd get eaten by a horse or some other such French delicacy

one of our team members is a plumber . . . .we're hoping to have a shower rigged up, hes been working on a prototype which is an old boiler, fired off campin gas and will hook up to the stand pipe, I havent seen it yet but it sounds interesting!
