i,ll bet none of those cubs are as cute as Samba.

mike we would love to convoy but we will be even later than you as it is grandsons birthday too so i have to go to his party after work, then get the dog sitter picked up and installed so I,m guessing around 8pm at the earliest - save us a space though. :)

Great news! The A7 was closed by a landslip south of Langholm today. Torrental rain has resulted is the River Esk undermining the road. The official diversion is awful not to mention twice as long. Looks like I am going to have to explore the back roads around Langholm tomorrow to get to the bash. Tan Hill bash too as it is going to take ages to repair the road according to news reports. :cry: :cry: :evil:

The site is slightly sloping and very well drained.

I'll be there tomorrow morning to double check that it is ok.

Alternative arrangements are in place if the site is not usable.

I'm two wheel drive as well and don't expect any probs.

Just drive VERY slowly (tickover) in 'S' and you shouldn't leave skidmarks.

cheers

I am hoping to get an early dart from work.
So all I can say is, as soon as I get home, the sooner I can get on my way.

Harry, The Haggii are reknown for having their right foreleg and backleg shorter than their left foreleg and backleg to enable them to circumnavigate the hills clockwise at great speed. Do you have any ideas on how I can adjust the wheels on my Bongo to enable me to follow them !!!

Remove the middle anti roll bar bracket and loosen the wheel nuts down one side :D

I drove past the site today. The sun was shining and all looked well. We've not had any rain today here so the site should be ok although it tomorrow may be another story.
What time you all planning on arriving? I should be on site from 2pm ish. Harry - i'll ring you in the morning around 9.15 after dropping boys off at school.
