Stu Posted April 3, 2015 Author Posted April 3, 2015 I can see this "fast" group turning out to be quite an interesting scene. Best get the RSV ready I bet it wont be as much fun as going across snake pass .........now that was a blast
rennie Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 We're taking the caravan to the Lower Lode tomorrow night andThursday night just for a short break
RantMachine Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 I'm still sulking about having to get the train. Dangit.
RantMachine Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 True that! I can think of few better uses for a weekend than drooling over bikes, getting pissed with some mates, dressing up like a prat, and indulging in some crap karaoke.
Guest Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 Karaoke?? Interesting... I was a Karaoke host for 5 years from 18-23... fun times.
Tango Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 Karaoke?? Interesting... I was a Karaoke host for 5 years from 18-23... fun times.Yeah....Rennie and Sue normally provide the Karaoke.......they have a pro setup as they also provide it at other functions.....and it's very kind of them to do this for us at the rally...... P.S......Rennie drinks cider.....dunno what Sue drinks......
NeilM Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 Karaoke. ...lad does a most bizarre Yorkshire impression of Jonny Cash
Grumpy Old Git Posted April 8, 2015 Posted April 8, 2015 Ollie,As I am riding down and Sue will be taking the car - we will have room for you (and your 'kit') should you wish it.Current plan is to leave mid-morning on the Friday and 'escape' around mid-morning on the Sunday.Also happy for you to come over to Brampton on the Thursday evening and stay over (that way, there is no rush and you get a 'free' breakfast).Over to you..... PM me.Al

rennie Posted April 10, 2015 Posted April 10, 2015 We've just got home!brilliant weather, good food! good cider! They're expecting us for the Rally and looking forward to it(they remember the karaoke! )Quite a few bikes called in while we were there!It's a popular spot.
OhJay Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 indulging in some crap karaoke. Did my looking longingly into your eyes singing "I would do anything for love" count as crap then?
RantMachine Posted April 14, 2015 Posted April 14, 2015 That will always be a special moment! I was think more of a certain rendition of "She's a Maniac"
Grumpy Old Git Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Got the fancy dress booked - Don't need an Axe for this one! Also convinced t'missus to dress up as well (and Dylan!).I'm tempted to join in on the 'squalling' (singing?) this year but, I'll need to be 'well into my cups' in order to perform.Is anyone sorting out a quiz? If not, I can supply one (pre-printed sheets to fill in)???????Not long to go now.
RantMachine Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Maybe I should dress as Stu this year, seeing as I won't be bringing a bike
Mr Fro Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Maybe I should dress as Stu this year, seeing as I won't be bringing a bike Oooh, someone call the burns unit!
NeilM Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 As this will obviously be my first rally with you reprobates. Fancy dress optional then or is it a requirement? Starting to get a little worried. ..
Guest Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Fancy dress optional then or is it a requirement? Starting to get a little worried. ..I'm sure there will be at least one not in fancy dress
RantMachine Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 And I will give them constant grief for it until I'm too drunk to care
Stu Posted April 17, 2015 Author Posted April 17, 2015 Maybe I should dress as Stu this year, seeing as I won't be bringing a bike If you want to call yours a bike then go for it
RantMachine Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 Nah, right now mine is a state of the art paperweight - and to rely on the ever dependable test for motorbike value, no it is not worth its weight in Freddos.Webbs in Peterborough told me it'd be worth about £800, which buys 3453 Freddo bars at the current Tesco price - that's a mere 94.6kg of Freddo. The bike weighs in at 175.5kg (dry), so is in fact worth roughly half its weight in Freddo http://www.officesuppliesexpress.com.au/media/catalog/product/cache/1/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/8/7/87009180_image_new_13.jpg
Stu Posted April 17, 2015 Author Posted April 17, 2015 Ollie you have too much time on your hands! P's they are cheaper in bulk
RantMachine Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 That was already based on the multipack price
Grumpy Old Git Posted April 17, 2015 Posted April 17, 2015 And I will give them constant grief for it until I'm too drunk to care About 10 minutes then (1 1/2 pints).
