hi Joker & Gwh200, i would love to come along, 8.45 am on the road outside B&Q sounds fine to me. I saw that cb's are used do you have a set channel? as i have a radio in the truck, can give you a shout if your on, looking forward to saturday and meeting some fellow smurfer dudes!

i will switch mine on to say....channel 21(all depending on whether or not maplins have a new whip aerial for me by friday)if they do 21 it is. see you there matey

Count me in, are we doing lunch or sarnies

I'm happy with whatever but - Earlyish finish then Pub & Grub about 3 or 4 ish? Or find a burger van a bit earlier then do some more lanes?

If i'd known i coulda chucked another aerial on my thunderpole order today, can probably go an borrow one for you anyway mate, or stop bein greedy and lend you one of mine, assuming magmounts use the same standard 3/8" screw in aerials?

Woppit - More than welcome mate.


I'm gonna suggest splitting into two groups on some of the lanes that are more popular with walkers, only have to run a few minutes apart 9 or 10 trucks is a pretty big group.

Do you reckon operation Slack will still be in farce on Saturday? Have to take the A20 if it is I spose.
Finished my Lantra professional offroad driving course today, I am truly amazed at what a standard vehicle can do on road tyres (110 Defender) I drove sections that I would never have even attempted if I had come accross them previously, now I am bang up for anything so bring it on!
What we doing then, heading out towards Shadoxhurst first? loads of lanes round there.
My tail pipe fell off on the way home tonight, no time to fix it now, at least Ive a slightly better departure angle though...

Looks like stack's still gonna be on, where are you coming from?

Shadoxhurst's all pretty shoite to be honest, but we may end up having a mosy over there during the afternoon simply because there's quite a few lanes in a small area. Got some other areas marked up with better lanes to do first. I'll check what's open and what's not tomorrow (friday) morning and just see what people are game for on the day.

i'll sort another run in a few months time, or wait until the monster truck weekend and i'll set up a shiny and a non-shiny route for the friday afternoon / evening.

Evening all,

I'm out til late tonight so if you need to contact me about tomorrow call me on 07773 019472, Dave if you ring me i'll give you directions over the phone but if you're going coastbound on the m20 come off at j.10 and take the second exit, tesco is 200 yds on the right.

If anyone's gonna come down the M2 to faversham, and across from there to avoid stack, again call me if you want and i'll meet you that side of town and lead you across to tesco. If no one calls then i'll go straight to tesco.

See yas all tomorrow

[joker??]
