Well my day has been slightly mad.  Didnt expect to still be messing with Carbs but with the help of Stef at MAC finally got them running with no backfire (for now).   So really running last min.  Just sat down and thought I would see how everyone else is going on.  Look forward to seeing you all.   The one thing I can assure you all... after a few days like I have had ..... I am thirsty !   Very very thirsty

Well, it would not be right for us to let you drink alone now would it?

Its the least we can do to join you 

Been in from the garage for about 20 minutes, yet I still didn't get anything done to actually help with the IBW trip from a mechanical maintenance point of view.
Still have 90% of my packing to do, not to mention the packing of my lads stuff - he's going to grandma's for a few days.

Take care guys n gals hope you all have a safe and fun weekend 

Thanks Leebow. Well my first buggy spot of the day is a yellow one coming from the north so I think the omens are good:

Many are already on their way, and others (like Hudge and me) will be leaving a lot later, still gives me time to remember I hadnt picked my passport up.
See you all at Colchester

I can well believe that I'm sure since I was in Netherlands and Germany I've been over the Thames twice !!!!!!

There are going to be many fantastic images of buggys and scenery in a few days time, plus several tales, but to whet your appitite:

Looks like your all having a good time and nice weather 😀👍

home, knackered, sunburn, everyone on the ferry(eventually) was a smasher as always.
thank you all for coming over, and have a safe trip back. you are all legends, see you all next time

A great weekend with the buggy crew pity we had no showers on site but a minor problem.
Onlyhick ups were a broken steering coupling a rubber one  ot a redring of death and a possible dropped valve meaning recovery so towing on from Holland this year. One rearhub seal, dodgy carbs and a hand brake cable that likes dropping off for reasons unknown. All will be back in the uk safe.
