Well, the car is clean(ish), cleaning stuff is in the boot, camera is charged, have i forgotten anything? o, set the alarm for stupid o'clock in the morning!

I'm glad to say, having a garage has really helped this time round, i wouldn't have been able to spend so much time on the car as i have due to dodging showers etc. So i am pleased!

Look forward to seeing you all in the morning!

Doug

well my car is kinda clean, its been raining for the last hour down my way and i've got some lovely beading on the car at the moment.
gotta get out there and wash the wheels and will probably leave it at that......................until we get to the pod

still gotta pack up the car though

I've polished half of my car so far, been fed up of 'dodging' showers today!!!

Mines going to be a slag on the 1/4 should the weather be okay tommorow anyways!

I was proper hardcore/crazy - washing the car in the heavy hail and rain this evening! It's now stopped so I managed to dry and polish it

Whooo - cant wait, first show of the year.

Unfortunately I have to pull out of this one last minute guys, due to stupid airline chaos that has ruined my weekend. Was stranded in Egypt for 14 hours and only got back 2 hours ago! Need recovery time. See you all at the next upcoming shows!

was a good...when it wasn't raining! i think it was worth the wait wasn't it, your face looked something like this as you went past

how is your back today?
mum gave me a funny look when i told her i had a sub and amp in the back of the car, she looked relieved when i told her it was no longer in there!
also told her her car is too slow to which she replied "its not that slow" my response..."it is when there are tdi's in front and gti's behind..."

thanks everyone
