Ill check back on friday evening to get a better idea of the setup. Having not been there before might be better to ring ahead and find out if there is space on the club pitch before tackling any of the main camping/parking areas. Oh and do they allow dogs? I have my collie with me...

Ok, first daft question, if we wanted to leave after Sunday lunch are we going to be allowed or once in do we have to stay put until Monday? Could leave it till after 4 it's just Lynn has to be in London on Monday.

I.e you need to be out by sun 4pm.
I might take you up on that Starcruiser/Richardwhat do you prefer to be called ? A stainless one would be good as i could just bolt it to the trailer and forget about it until its needed .
Don't mind Shayne, you can call me either, or Rich if it's easier.
I could get a Stainless one made but don't forget, stainless is not as strong as steel which could be plated. We can look at it over the weekend if you like and if you've got pictures of the nut to PM me, all the better.

I have a throwaway number you can hit me on if needed, 07424 294319
When you get to the event, please try and park top to bottom, and as far towards the outside as possible, I'll try and draw up a scheme, attached here - this looks to be the best way to organise the area. If we can get 4 of the folks with awnings in a semi circle at the bottom, we should have enough cover ( when adding the 2, from Stan and Trevor ) to keep everyone dry and airy.
basically, start parking up from the top and work you way down, leave about a LC worth of space between each other and park as close to the outer edge as you can, the yellow bit in the middle isnt really going to be as wide as it seems here, but it should be enough for people to pitch oztents etc and still leave walking room (hope..).
the upside down cruisers, for our friends from the wrong hemisphere, who miss hanging up side down all the time..... ( and i couldnt workout easily howo flip them )

You're all complete nutters, and I imagine you'll have a blast!
Not at all envious or upset that I can't be there...
Have a good weekend guys

I won't if I can't get my truck to start [emoji22][emoji22][emoji22]
Cleared and cleaned it out, loaded it up, got the bed in the back sorted, put three bags of logs in the back, hopped in it to put it first on the drive and…click…now I've got to search for the non starting 24/12v relay problem.
One for the morning. Wish me luck or I won't be with you. It has sounded laboured starting for the last two or three times so I have a few clues to go on.
One for another thread.

You will just haveto teach it the ways of the northern hemisphere!My trucks from the wrong hemisphere, do you want me to park it on its roof might be hard to get the tent up
My thoughts exactly[emoji30]
Sorry, edited my post up there as I made a cods of the spelling. So I added my tale of woe there.

I'm guessing that this may be the 12/24v start relay. Has anybody got one they could bring tomorrow just in case? I've got to prove the theory in the morning and if it is I MIGHT be able to bridge two terminals to get it started and just not switch off or bridge again if I do. Karl? Anybody?
