Looks like my christmas eve is going to be spent trying to fit my snorkel! Wish me luck!
Jon & Tommo, do you guys have any idea if/when you'll make it to this yet? Just so you know, monday looks more off road than tuesday but that depends if anyone gets stuck Tuesday we'll be covering more distance on the whole, from Dolgellau to Llandewi Breffi.
Let me know, Jim. _________________

I have just purchased a bog standard 80 series (pick it up next week), so won’t be doing too much in the way of off roading. However I would like to come down for the nights camping and get to know a few of you. Any objections? |
Picked up my truck, but due to a complication with the last owner of my truck having a private plate and DVLA. I’m unable to tax the truck right now .
This means I’ll have to pass up on the camping, next time I hope to be there. |

Thanks all. I've planned some more lanes to do on Wednesday now, and I've drawn the extra bits in rough loops so we can easily miss sections out if we're running short on time.
To all attending, if you can find/steal/borrow a cb radio for the trip it'd make en route communication alot easier.
Meeting points: For anyone coming on Monday 28th, it's Ponderosa Cafe on the Horseshoe Pass. If anyone wants to join up for the camping or the convoy on Tuesday pm me for the location and directions to the camp grounds.
Tommo, Jon, Spindrift and Rob, I'll pm you my mobile number now
Have a great christmas chaps, see you next week _________________

Hey 'vette, it'd be great to see you if you can make it. As Tommo says, we're moving out @10am from the Ponderosa. I'll be there from 9 for some grub.
Can't wait _________________

Great,
I have just swapped out the A/T 's for the M/T's
I am sure the neighbours think I am ready for the asylum. its just 11:00pm
I will leave Warrington about 8:00 ~ 8:15 arriving the car park about 9:30.
It will be good to meet all the internet friends, and faces to the names.
Lets hope for some deep mud, see how there M/T's perform.
(is Corwen car wash on the loops) ?
