The 'week 'til fest bandom ranter thread'

Is it a bit like those ahem brownies from last year? lol ;-)

No, they weren't that great anyway.

"Nothing special" he says :angel: You took the time to bake it didn't you? Well done Rich (y)
Look forward to it Rich, i'll try and get a bit this time :LOL: Cake, that is!

I did but as usual I ran out of time, it's quite plain this year.

Is your zipper gonna be safe this weekend Al?

I will behave this year

God don't get him started! :stop:

Then again, beer + richb = Naughtiness

How many bottles of Cognac this year, Rich :LOL:

Only a small amount
 
Tim likes an extra portion...or two...or three..just don't mention Trifle to him :LOL:


Cheeky sod! lol....I only had two...or was it three bowls or maybe it was?.....OK! I like Trifle!!! pmsl!!

Extra portion of Goat Curry!...Hmmm...YES PLEASE!!!!! :)
 
In view of the dramatic reduction in numbers this year, the cake is a little smaller than in previous years, it's down from 14" to 12", still a decent size though.
 
Not long now - picking up Shorty after work, then heading to Asda for supplies, home, polish Coog.....well, scrape some of the muck off.....pack him full of camping paraphernalia, then try and get some sleep, because I'm not in the least bit excited :angel:
 
I think I might pee myself I'm that excited been doing loads this week to get ready for tomorrow, still loads more to do got a new tent same as Rich and Ria that I still need to do a trial run with, loads on the car to do sort stuff out to pack etc etc but you know what ad long as the car is there and the people anything else can wait.

JJ
 
At work 5 till close tonight, so will get my supplies tomorrow morning (that way they will still be fresh) all camping gear is ready and waiting and as usual as the cars a frosty it looks clean anyway ;)
Will have to make some room in the car for a bit of Cougarforce delivery work (something for Tony in a large box) but otherwise should be ok for space as its just me.
Should be at Grendon around mid-day time.....famous last words
 
Well - I'm a tad p*ss*d off - still no cougar - I know that my Mafia brethren are doing their best but it is looking like another week or two before the beast roars into life - and I fear that it it just won't be the same attending in a citroen picasso :censored:

On a more positive note - my new improved +1, Jackie, is coming so that should ease the pain a little :D
 
.........I fear that it it just won't be the same attending in a citroen picasso......

Just wind down your window when you pull onto the field and shout, "RAAAARRRRR!!!!!!!!!"

I'm telling you, nobody will be any the wiser (y)

All joking aside though, I feel your pain - must be soul destroying to be so close but not be belting the new weapon around the 'B' roads.

It's absolute torture Paul - absolute torture.

I've done over 1000 miles in the picasso (on 1 1/2 tanks of diesel!!!!) - could've had the Phoenix run in on that - just hoping she's ready for Ford Fair although I fear that, even if she is, she wont be fighting fit by then and not ready for the 0-60s - although should be roaring by Trax in September (y)
