drift_bear Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Since there sadly isn't any pod next year I'm considering doing the dragonball trip instead. Anyone else up for doing it? We normally do 1 big national club event so why not do this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it will be a good chunk of change, but would be good to do! Im afraid its a definate no from me too. Poor student and all.

Havard Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Not as if there's much planned for event wise up with us lol I think £950 is more of a realistic estimate. We spent £750 last year and you guys are only around 150 - 200 miles north of Wigan. I am also thinking about organising a trip up to Scotland during the summer but I will need to get a feel for numbers. The last time I organised anything only 8 turned up from the 16 on the list so I haven't bothered since. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 (edited) It would be more than that for the members further north like myself, monsween and etc dude Where are you then? EDIT: Just looked at Aberdeen where Kieran is, 566 miles to Ashford and 335 miles to Wigan so you are adding at least a tank of fuel each way to get to where we start from. I reckon a grand will easily cover it unless you are further away Alex. Edited December 31, 2012 by Havard (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully get the car started/finished in time for this! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully get the car started/finished in time for this! Thinking about it, we spent £750 whilst drinking in moderation, your bill might be slightly higher from what I can gather Alex. Could be up for this, I dont drink so can save alot of money that way Your bill will be lower than above...lol..!! That would be great H. I know a good few of us would make the effort to get to any event held up here I will have a look after the new year and plan a route. Mrs H and I did a cracking trip up to Sterling and then down to Troon and Portpatrick a few years ago. A bit of local knowledge from you guys could be handy..!! H.

monsween Posted January 12, 2013 Share Posted January 12, 2013 The farmer owns all the houses around us so doubt he'd sell up. I'd guess at there being no payments outstanding on anything he has! Somewhere else really, still this side of town and in the middle of nowhere is on the cards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
