General A 4x2 Friendly Off-Road Yorkshire Weekend -- The Third

[Palio]

It's a twin, so room for you and your Mum if you don't mind sharing

Oh wow, ok, didn't expect that!

I'll speak to Mum & then Vernon, but that could certainly work. It would only be Sat night anyway (I'd leave the cats with a hundredweight of food & they'd be fine for one night).

Ok, just let me know what you're doing once you've worked it all out Seems silly to spend a load of money on a room elsewhere when we will have one empty anyway

Glad to see you guys helping each other out, proper job that :thumbup:

Freddy, you do realise that staying up here for a week; you are likely to get involved in some Panda-related jobs

If we let Freddy loose on LVJ he will be back to showroom condition by the time the week's done - but he won't get any holiday then!

Sounds good to me!

AndyPanda4x4 I've just updated the main thread - I'm in, with the red scraggy thing! Red scraggy thing is getting an oil change tomorrow in preparation (probably its only preparation!!) - don't really like the colour of the existing oil even though it was allegedly changed 4k ago.

panda1408 if the offer's still there Freddy, use of your spare room Sat night would be great. :worship: It looks like I can't persuade Mum (though I haven't given up), and sadly Vernon has confirmed he's 100% unable to attend now. . If that's not ok, just let me know & I'll find somewhere to book - as you say though, it's a shame to have it sitting empty & I can chuck something into the pot to help towards your expenses.

Yes, the offer is still there Gavin, the room is yours

 

[AndyPanda4x4]

Awesome work guys. Really looking forward to seeing everyone again. Gav, this must mean that you are signing up for some midnight mechanics aswell, staying with Freddy and all

Midnight mechanics, I don't think I'd be much help! I could probably manage a CD of Midnight Oil though, would that be useful?

Well you'll not be getting any sleep if your beds are burning anyway

 

[AndyPanda4x4]

Less than a week now, are we all set? :thumbup:

 

[Palio]

Less than a week now, are we all set? :thumbup:

All set barring anything unforeseen.

Red scraggy thing still working - check
Petrol - check
Stout boots - check
Accommodation - hopefully check (I'll just follow Freddy!)
Toothbrush - check

That's about it I think, so just a few days digging people out of holes with the tax office, then I can do something more useful next weekend. :slayer:

 

[panda panda]

Yep got Saturday off - not sure about Sunday doing the rotas in advance doesn't seem to be a priority at my work.

Be interesting to see what route the sat nav takes me coming from the west!

 

[andyholli]

Nearly.
Got my lift kit fitted.
Just need MOT and sandwiches making.
(Making the sandwiches, not the MOT)

...unless...

 

[4WDPandamonium]

Really sorry everyone especially to Andy who has organised this but I'm going to have to bail.

There's a family do on that there's isn't any getting out of, this is killing me inside the thought of spending the day with the oldies rather than coming out playing with all of you Panda nutters!! I've recently bought a gopro which I was hoping to get some good footage with n'all, am gutted

I was really looking forward to destroying my new starter motor in the mud puddles again testing the Panda to/beyond its limits!!!!!

Deepest apologies, I hope you all have a good weekend and im looking forward to seeing the pics!

[andyholli]

Woo hoo!

MOT done - just a reassuring volume of advisories to fiddle with for fun before next year.

We're in at Black Swan on Saturday night but will miss Saturday's drive due to friend's new baby, patting quest.

Where's the evening action at Andy?

 

[AndyPanda4x4]

Hi all, just sent you all a PM. We are having to change the meeting point for BOTH DAYS to The Black Swan pub in Fearby, as the Sheep Fair is in town and the rec will be filled with countyside types (like worse than me). Sorry for this last minute change and I hope it doesn't cause any problems. The postcode is HG4 4NF...

The pub is easy to find, entering Masham go past the rec, follow the road up the hill and past the petrol station, on the next right hand bend there is a turning to the left for Fearby and Healey - head down here 2 miles and the pub is on the main road on the left hand side.
