Assuming that Ryan's train is on time I think we should be with you between half eleven and noon.

Well I've just put all my stuff together in a pile. Bloody hell it mounts up! Going to have to do some rationalising now as there'll be three of us and kit in the car

Right, ignore the second case of tools, forget the cooking gear (I'll pack a day's worth of sarnies (top Roadie tip

). Lose the air mattress... sod that

101 in the case at the moment

Might have to have a rethink so I can fit some other bits in that case.

Oh - I found three chairs btw Neil!

Good news. I had managed to locate a couple but I'm concious of the finite capacity of your vehicle

Neil

Perhaps Ryan could be lashed to the roof? That would free up some space for more essential items.

And you haven't seen the problem first hand yet.......

The toolbox won't fit in the boot assembled. Currently debating whether to flatten one of the rear seats, or to transport them side by side, thereby covering a greater surface area.

Obviously, I will get bored with reasoning pretty quickly and will just cram everything in wherever it'll fit

Sounds like how I chose which SAKs to bring, much careful deliberation and then finally grabbed a bunch. Heck worked well last time

Doesn't look like the overnighter is possible for us so packing is a lot easier

We're still knackered from the flu thing and haven't got a dog sitter for the night, but still really looking forward to seeing you all for the day.

I only have a few tools, including my first mod attempt (currently minus scales), a bag of food/water, a couple of chairs and my girl

You all sound very excited and mostly organised, well done

Mike, Lord of the Spammers! · **Reply #145 on:** April 17, 2009, 11:32:39 PM

Can't wait to meet you either

And having a chat with the Hedgekid to get some tip's too

Well, I am quite disgusted with myself for the amount of gear I seem to be taking, although it is mostly sharp and shiny stuff, so I guess that's OK.

Just looking to see if there's a convenient geocache near where we're going to stash this geocoin that the owner probably thinks I've stolen - and I think I'm set

Roadie · **Reply #149 on:** April 18, 2009, 12:45:50 AM

I just need to make a bunch of sarnies up in the morning and i'm done, although i will be calling at morrissons in the morning to pick up some scooby snacks!
