Nope! (obligatory beating) :twak: Been looking forward to this for too long already ... besides getting us all together for four days at another time could be very tricky

I am thinking another meet might be good later on in the year though ... maybe late August or early September time  :think:

I'm ready and love this sort of thing, closest I've come to an adventure in ages :P

Little trip was successful: Various sausages and burgers and a couple of steaks, all a mix of kangaroo, wild boar, ostrich and venison ... and a decent sized ostrich egg too, all sitting round at Mark's  :tu: We can't have us all being ordinary now can we  :P

I'll get the coffee, tea and beer tomorrow morning (I'll grab decaf too)

Aside from that I've not got much sorted as regards my own gear, so I hope you lot are doing better than me  :P  Not that I really care, from this point in ... it's chillin' time :D :D :D

Well I've just finished packing my gear up, just need to load it in the car now.  The plan is to try and get away early from work and beat the rush away from Edinburgh.  One more shift at work and I'm on holiday for a week. :ahhh :D

I've found myself in a flap about what to bring.... not too much new and interesting but I decided to bring a few lighters I want to sell/trade. All petrol, mostly old and all working :)

Ok parking at the local pub sorted. It does mean we need to go in for a pint or two of an evening. I am sure we can work through that pain though.

Ordinary Pfffft! :D Even if we all made a concerted effort I'm not sure we could get anywhere close to ordinary!

I've got a jar of posh instant decaff in the cupboard that needs using up, I'll sling it in the food bag. Not sure if you were intending for real decaff or not.

Farmman - that's the best parking payment scheme I've ever come across  :tu:  :D

Looking forward to seeing you ramshackle lot tomorrow :)

I had a nose like a tap last weekend but it seems to have sorted its washer out now thank goodness :)

So am I best going straight to the pub and walking down? If my mental maths is correct they'll be no spaces left Saturday morning :)

Will I need a special Farmman pass on it to stop from getting towed? :D

I've nothing heavy to carry so no issues there.
I'm not taking any more mod orders at present, sorry.

Hi Neil
I have arranged for you to park in one of the neighbours drives as you are only here for the day.

Everyone else I suggest coming to the house, unloading and then those that are using the pub car park will need a pass which I have just finished printing off.

I've only now just caught up on the last couple of pages of this... I imagine most of you are on the road by now, if not already there or just about to be.  This looks like a great meetup, and a special prize goes off to anyone who can crack that ostrich egg raw and drink the contents!   :pok:
