Morning all the excitment is starting to get the better of me as i get my gear together.

I have Jon's number but it may be a good idea if someone who is camping tonight sent me there number.

Mine is 0 seven five two 5 seven four 5 878 for those who need it.

My plan is to get to Jon's for my spare alloy as soon as the post man has arrived with my CB antenna and mag mount around 1:30ish. I then need to have the spare mounted to the alloy and will head over to the RV.

Depending on how i am feeling and the weather i will get to you around 5ish i would think and may just hit a B&B close by if its too tricky to navigate to the "campsite" but will call to update.

Must run loads to do this morning before i can head off wil post before i leave.

Not scared of the cold my concern is more what time i get to you guys and depending on where you are it might be difficult to get to in the dark with the snow and may make life easier for all if i bed down at a B+B...there is one only a few miles away.

Warren
Im only joking. It is going to be cold and im goin to thinking i sould have stopped in my lovely warm house.
Im only heading off tonight for the crack.
Catch you laterz

 

[Jon Wildsmith]

The B&B on the main road a few miles east of the RV is supposed to be ok (never stayed there) and the car park is often full of 4x4's when I've been past.

Looks like you may get called for rescue service

 

[Graham]

Well looks like you guys need take lots of hot drinks, and extra coats, spare gloves, etc. Just in case you lot do get a little stranded, for a while.

Sounds like your going to have a lot of snow, and lots of fun.

Now to sit back here and wait for the photos.
Lots, and lots, and lots of them.

Graham

 

[spackrackman]

When you lot get set up can we have some co ordinates please. I actually have no idea where I am heading for(yes I will read back) Hopefully Dave will have more of an idea.
Good luck tonight, The more bored I get in front of the TV tonight the more likely I will get in my car and drive over later.

[Jon Wildsmith]

For the RV tomorrow morning you're heading for slightly west of Ponterwyd on the A44 - the RV is at SN 71835 81309. Tonight they *might* end up on the car park at SN 71050 83914. I can't remember if they will have phone reception out there. I spoke to Gav not long ago as he was nearing the RV and conditions sound like you need to be pretty sure where you're going or well equipped to be self sufficient, I wouldn't go on the off chance of finding them while it's like this.

 

[dave b]

Cant wait to set off should be a good day.its too cold for me sleeping in the cruiser though.iwill be setting off early tomorrow if you want to meet up jonny.

 

[SpinDrift]

Looking forward to tomorrow. It should be an exciting trip with the snow. To use the beebs terminology, I would class this trip as 'absolutely essential' I'll be setting off early in the morning. See you there.

cheers
