Well I figured it'd be rude...I've only met her once...and we don't want to encourage any of the sort of behaviour in Steve that might seem him turning to FWD French toss again! sm56

For anyone who isn't me, Steve, or Chris...don't worry...late-night desperate-meet-planning-chat in-joke (woo hyphens!) about tent sharing...I bagsied Kate, so Steve gets Chris... sm7 :shock:

cheers

if you're replacing stuff (like drivers seat) i dont mind, as long as it looks as good as it does when you get there (which is pretty good). and no nicking rare bits. i know what you lot are like.

Us?! sm63

So nothing 'nice', and anything notable has to be replaced? I think we can manage that. Want money for bits?

cheers

Shall we take whatever, and work out the money later?

Crediton is a bit of a drive....but that's what we have cars for :mrgreen:

Dude.... is it really worth it? It's not worth touching the insurance ones, so it's just Nessy to dissasemble.... and that needs to be moved at some point. Just my 10p's worth, if you have a specific reason then cool.

I actually live fairly close, and the other side, so I don't really want to drive up to the services only to drive straight back again... :|

Therefore if you stick to the currect plan I'd probably join everyone in Crediton to save racking up the miles, or, as Chris says, is it worth it?

Or we could change the plan:

Campers head to Taunton Deane Services for breakfast unless they want to eat at the campsite, and those not camping meet with them at the services.

Perhaps then we have a general meet/chat in the carpark and go on up to Bishops Lydeard for the rally.

Then perhaps if anyone wants to go back to Crediton to see the car a group could go down, and the rest would go home.

But will Hugh's parents want a group of Volvos turning up in the afternoon/evening :P

What do you think?

Well, I'm happy whatever happens! I've PM'd you with my number, just incase no one has yours and you have no one elses who is going! That way if the plan changes you should know what is going on! See everyone there, looking forward to it, should be a good weekend.
