i got the tent out today just to check its ok and ready for use, i'm a bit short of room in the indy as i have a massive fuel tank and no storage, do you think i need warm clothes or beer ?


Paradoxia0 - 30/3/08 at 09:58 PM

Wear warm clothes and bring beer!

Even forget the tent! A beer blanket will always keep you warm :-)

Just fitted full cage on mine, thinking of putting small roof box on it for shows and when i get there putting it in tent full of ice packs for the beer.

Hopefully i will be coming down from Edinburgh in the car this year. The first thing to pack is the beer cant get Belhaven best in the south. If i can fit anything else in it'll be a bonus.


graememk - 30/3/08 at 10:03 PM

found the solution, give all my gear to Paradoxia0 as he has the biggest 7 in the world lol


Paradoxia0 - 30/3/08 at 10:06 PM

I suppose I couls take my spare Jerrycan of fuel out of the boot to fit your beer in!

Or, take the fuel out of the jerrycan and fill that with beer...


rayward - 30/3/08 at 10:06 PM

Great minds think alike just need to finish the car and find a suitable roof box!

And after last year lots of warm cloths + 2 or 3 sleeping bags

Ouch!!

When you get to my age or there abouts a comfortable bed followed by a cooked breakfast v camping/cold/damp, only one winner.

I admit i will miss the evening drinking ale round the camp fire but my bones were totaly knackered last year, time to retire


phoenix70 - 30/3/08 at 10:55 PM

Never been to Stoneleigh and Can't make the Sunday this year, is it worth going on the Monday?


worX - 30/3/08 at 11:47 PM

Go there for the Sunday evening and camp over and get yourself in on the drinking beer round the fire and thats worth it on it's own!

And Yes Stoneleigh is a pretty decent show, all the manufacturers make an effort and get there aswell so you get to look round their stands and the mormal auto type of stands!

Up to you the company will be good, but most of the beer will be gone by then. Still you could bring a resupply in.

Good Company sounds good, not a drinker, so don't mind missing that.

Cheers

Blimey, better get cracking with the MK to get it finished. I head off to Australia on May 6th so would be nice to get to Stoneleigh. I don't drink, I've got a big bottle of Jagermeister lying around that I won't drink, any takers?


Mr Whippy - 31/3/08 at 02:08 PM

Side pod storage bins that you just bolt on?

rusty nuts - 31/3/08 at 08:42 PM

Book sales must be good then Chris? P.S hope the kids got shoes first!


chrisg - 1/4/08 at 07:05 PM

It's not my caravan.

I'm lodging.

The only thing I've bought is new teeth (It's a long story)

The kids still have loaf bags in their shoes to keep the rain out, buy more books.

My granny needs an operation too.

or something.

Cheers
