Sounds promising 😎 👍.... I take it you've got a mahoooosive lorry to bring all the kit you've purchased over the last few years 😁

Haha, no, only my little peugeot 208, fits everything (if packed correctly), also (if coming) the dog might make an appearance. 

This Social would be brilliant to have something to look forward to...

I am looking forward to it already, I did think maybe one night I could nip out and pick up a Turkish meat feast for everyone from the best kebab van in the world 5kg platter 😍

Hi Ian, 

 

We have decided on Ashmire. Link above.

Sadly, due to the lack of interest a smaller venue. 

Looks to be well stocked,reasonably priced and we can all nip back to Elmo's for a shower🙂

@chillfactor & myself fancy 3 nights. As above etc. Also the lucky so & so is off to Europe on Friday.  We are hoping to get this booked, deposit etc sorted before then . So we can confirm you and your son? 

Would you want to stay on for the Sunday night too?

Glad you responded pal.

That's a shame mate, maybe next time 

Got to the point now, I dread driving my car, so local drives only, until it goes  BANG 💥, everything DUE in June...MOT, Tax Insurance,  but don't think last until then.....butnif it does its being weighed in.

Then I maybe (🙏) having the wife's car, then depending on what car she wants (and how much) she maybe leasing a car.

But I really do not have any luck with cars.

My vans just been written off🤮 not crashed, just too many things wrong with it.

New version £60k+🤯

I don't seem to have much luck with motors either.

It's tough, second hand crew vans eu6 with 50-100k on the clock are going for £25-30k.

I'm near London so need to be LEZ compliant,  or it's £12.50 a day.

So tired of always feeling ripped off on everything we buy
