The dates are now in my Diary.

WooooHoooo.

I wont have any room in my Van for a mini Bike, but hopefully someone with a trailer will be able to help by taking it up for the weekend.

Looking forward to all the regular crowd, plus whoever else wants to make the journey.

Geoffro.

Just spent my Christmas gift Voucher at Rays outdoor world.
Bought some new stuff for camping.

Now I have enough camping gadgets to sink a ship.

Really looking forward to getting together and having some fun.
I am already sick of work and its only the start of the year....

Welding

Just bought a 9kg gas bottle and holder for the front of the trailer (should be really adequate for 4 days cooking and water heating if necessary).

Does anybody weld and have a welder. I just need to get the Bottle holder welded to the front of the trailer before i take off, it's only 2 small brackets that need welding ( it's galvanised steel). I'll pay to have it done.

Hey Mr Owl

Oh Geoff, great to hear from you, hope you are keeping well.

Same as before if you want to go in Feb and Transport is an issue drop me a PM and i'll arrange something with you.

The TARDIS Trailer (Time And Relative Dimension In Space) has ever expanding capabilities. (Even if Mr Owl has to go on the roof bars)

My Advice is never sleep in Arthur's TARDIS trailer .... You may end up in another dimension.
