I’ve been to 8 on the trot but I won’t be going this yr , I do enjoy the game side obviously but it’s the ‘other stuff’ I like the most and to be fair what ever the game ‘plan’ is it always goes to rat shit by lunchtime and descends in to a fecking huge death match(which is absolutely fine by me !?) but ultimately it’s the whole social atmosphere I really go for and seeing as there’s no way on earth I’m gonna be hanging around that many people in that small an area in the current pandemic so yup it’s a no show for me ? this year say’lla’vie. ?

You have had a good run of it then.?

This will be our sixth year,seventh if covid hadn't spoilt 2020.

I completely agree,it's great to mobilise into action with great intent and planning, only for it all to fall apart due to exhaustion,(2018),and my compass reading skills lol. 

And as you say it's the whole social atmosphere that is everywhere. Sitting round the dying embers of a camp fire laughing and joking with the strangers next plot along at 2am and then at 3am when you are in your tent,hollering out "SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU FUCJKING IDIOTS!!!( spelling due to being inebriated)?

As you say though,a.lot of people but I will be taking no chances.?

Will you be going back though? 

Maybe 2022?

God willing I will be there ?

Regards 

Agree 

agree 

agree 

AND agree ! ?

I hope so I do enjoy the wknd away with my best bud(pls who ever tags along each yr) just chilling and acting like a pair of kids !

Yeah you are right. Interesting times.

I see they trialed a flying car last week. 

God help us!

It's bad enough people throwing litter out the window on the motorway. Can you imagine coke cans and half eaten egg sandwiches and bags of macdonalds chips raining down. Lol

Then there is fly(no pun intended although I think it has potential lol)tipping! Now that could certainly hurt especially mattresses ?

@ak2m4 I do a lot of work with Nio, and for the amount of car you get for the price is pretty good. They've just entered Europe properly so hopefully they'll make a RHD version.

@rj1986 heard a lot about NIO, been following Xpeng for a few years as well, early days for sure.  What gets me is the UK government bangs on about being the need to switch to cleaner fuels. go electric but the costs of the offerings from the traditional players are quite high.  My mate in US just bought a new Tesla Model 3 for $35000, and he said he can claim back around $5000 through tax schemes etc, so around £21,500.  Same car here in the UK £42,500.  Ok it's not a great comparison, different countries, different economy etc but jezzzzz
