By this time we had met and moved in close to @oscar Having got it mowed we had a few 'private' camps down there before we had the TLB Cotswold Camp. One of the most enjoyable weekends of last year. Doing the Assault course in Ted was less spectacular than the effort in the Beetle! We got a number of time penalties as it took nearly five minutes to find reverse! Note newly fitted Porsche Wheel centres. Nice Wheels @hibiscrub @zed was forgiven his parking as he arrived in the dark and came straight to the pub. @oscar sulking 'cos he didn't catch any fish. Some interlopers got in but we let them as they brought beer and wine!
I then got fed up with Ted's rusty exhaust (2 months old Empi!) Fortunately a Stainless one came up locally for £50 so on it went, much nicer looking and a much better sound. Also got a Brand New set of overiders for HALF PRICE so they went on too with some of @lhu1281's rubbers. And a steering wheel from a Car Rallye Shop. And a new electronic tacho from someone in the Pipe and Slippers brigade. Fortunately I'd sold a bike so had some money burning a hole in my pocket. (Oh! How I wish that was still true)
There's a bloke on EarlyBay flogging both the Grey ones for Earlys/Cross-dressers and Black ones for lates, they work very well.
More filed fun piccies. The Army Boys turned up and joined in, very nice bunch they are too. We had a "joint BBQ" which went down well.
A few more from Keith's field then back to Ted. A visit to the Mill and Bakery. 30 Secs! 30 secs he was fishing before he caught his 1st. We'd been there all day and caught bugger all. Put another log on the fire please. It lasted a while.
I digress, back to Ted. Anyway we had a few more nights out down the field, did a very windy Dubfreeze and then packed Ted off to Paul Weeding for a full "Heart'n'lungs" job. Over to you now Paul..........
I should hope so By the way, your wheezy old 1700 is inside a GE 2l case.... Just in case you didn't know
Ted's coming home on The Trailer be back on Monday evening then out in Ted on Tuesday, is suspect I shall be conspicuous by my absence at work for around a week.
