Hey, at least you'll be driving your own car! Anyway, you've still got nearly a week to cut the springs... heh, thanks! Unfortunately the car is for sale and I have some interest in it, ALL due to originality and un-modified-ness. So I can't cut! I do have some cool wheels though. This is all getting very exciting! Cant wait to pop my gathering cherry, not even bothered by lack of tent, think Ill just sleep in the metro... Maybe a gazebo to keep the rain off. £8 or something in Tescos. Sleeping in the car is awful, seriously. And I've never slept in something so small!

Are we still able to get camping tickets? As per usual I've left everything till last minute, and will come directly from Santa Pod (Sat day time is Rotorstock 8 - the only rotary show I'm doing this year!) and want to camp at RRG11.
Thanks!

Sleeping in the car is awful, seriously. And I've never slept in something so small! True dat, Ive slept in a mini before in a lay-by outside a pub. Wasnt the best night sleep I ever had... Still too excited! Just running out of time to decide about my wheels.

I'm there from friday evening (lowish black E32). It would still be the best show of the year if it was just a 1 dayer but the camping means I can indulge in even more talking curse word about cars and maybe the odd beer. This is all getting very exciting! Cant wait to pop my gathering cherry, not even bothered by lack of tent, think Ill just sleep in the metro... Maybe a gazebo to keep the rain off. Asda were doing 2 man tents for 16 quid this week, looked alright aswell
