Yes people usually get overexcited at the thought of my presence :lol:

Shame I won't be in Ducky (well...unless everything arrives in the post tomorrow morning and there's sunshine for the next couple of weeks!), will be next year though :wink:

What's the matter with you Josh? Where's your sense of adventure gone? You've still got 3 weeks before Peterborough. Loads of time!!!!!!!!!!!! You could have my problems but I'm aiming to get it to Peterborough :lol: :lol:

Two weeks!!

I think yours is a bit further along the line...even if mine starts and drives :wink: :lol: I think she will be ready about a week after the Peterborough show, if the parts get here soon-ish and the weather stays good. I'm going to take my time over this one and do everything as good as I possibly can 8-) (plus I am a bit of a slow worker :oops: )

Josh

Call yourself a Marina owner? If you are worried about breaking down, link up with someone and drive in convoy.

I'm not worried about breaking down, more worried about driving a car that hasn't seen a basic service since the late 1990s, not going anywhere until that and the brakes are done at the very least :lol:

Haven't even been able to swap the fuel tanks over this week yet due to the weather :rolls:

Will have to try and get as many DLs together as possible.

All the boring old TCs can park somewhere else :lol:

The BMC/BL Day rally Facebook page posted this earlier:
'Spoke to Nene Park today and Oak Meadow (the field we use) IS draining well, so keep everything crossed folks and we should be ok (they have been forced to cancel 2 big events already this year, lets pray theres not 3)'.

I'd recommend wearing walking boots or stout shows and/or bring wellies.
