Its not the cost of buggying over there, its the whole fact that I have to get another car. Cam belt has wasted my engine. I've had it good for the last 3 years but I cant carry the financial pressure of this. I'm cycling 13 miles to work, wind, rain or shine. Can't do the overtime to save for another car as it over an hour to ride to work and back.

Gutted I cant go and knowing my luck it will be a top bash and weather will be mega

Dave you're an intelligent chap so you might have considered this already, get a 500 pound dally driver / beater car and rock it til the wheels come of or sell it on when your done. we hate to have a man down..

unless you're saving for a replacement engine to fix the dd.

This is such a shame. Especially as Ruben has had a long tunnel built for the occasion. :D

Do we actually now have a definitive list on how many people and how many buggies are going from the UK?

Must be getting close to 20

Chad

I`ve been updating the first post with those booked and confirmed and we are currently at 22

I know that we are missing a few regulars that seldom post on here, so it would be good to get confirmation from them too if they are coming or not  ;)

Dai, Ollie, Lee, Karl, Hazel to name a few   :-\


If your name is not on the first post, or I have missed out your passenger, please let me know and I can update the list   ;-)up


I'm booked and will be attending........ maybe with Sandra and Tyrone??? Who knows???? Although I think Sandra soon maybe taking my last breath as she has one more hole than she used too  :'( To some this would seem a bonus, but not I, as the discreet hiss she omits may determine her demise.
I'm old enough to know better, but young enough to do it anyway.

One for the buggers booking into hotels it is worth taking a cup and perhaps a plate for use during the day if folks on site are having a brew or there is food around even though there will probably be onsite catering vans as well as the bars A chair is also a good idea for lounging around.

Snoopy this made me think that us newbs could do with a list, other than car bits, of what we should bring. I know Arran was asking about this for Stonleigh the other day. So far I've got:

Tent + mallet
Airbed + footpump
Sleeping bag + pillow
Mini gas cooker + bottle
Frying pan, wooden spatula, saucepan + Kettle
Cool box, bacon, eggs, bread + ketchup
Coffee, tea, sugar + milk
Plate, mug, knife, fork + teaspoon
Chair
Wash bag
Spares box
Tools

That'll do for starters.

I'm no longer going if it's going to be a bible bash.
