Whoops - Chief

No, no. I think "Chuff" suits him

I am typing this from the middle of the North Sea - the marvels of technology!

Anyway, I am very much looking forward to this event. I'll be meeting you all at the curry house, not being into any of this camping nonsense.

Many thanks to Bloomers and Jen for their sterling organisation of the event. And I'm looking forward to catching up with some of you again - not forgetting Chuff, of course; who could?

I think we're on the same ferry.

Are we! I'm right at the front so I get to England quicker!

Oh goody! Bird impersonations. Is Chief Chuf doing chif chaf cheeps and chippy chirps?

Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice!

Follow the star, follow the star, and ye shall find the Compass for your people and all ye and as you cross to the sea in the east ye shall find The Blue Boar of Truth before the Indian Profit.

He was in the bar wasn't he?

Auntie Helen · « **Reply #309 on:** 07 December, 2012, 07:20:11 pm »

Look no beer!

What a coincidence.

Don't go through customs with him. His stomach looks a bit full of 'you know what'

I am formally a no show

Oscar's dad · « **Reply #312 on:** 07 December, 2012, 07:49:56 pm »

Ham! They've opened a Christmas shop in Maldon just for you!!!

Oaky's ill. No beer. Intravenous mulled wine is the only solution!

Wowbagger · « **Reply #313 on:** 07 December, 2012, 10:55:24 pm »

I will, sadly, definitely not be there for the daytime bit.

See you in Maldon at 8 p.m. by motorised transport.

Oaky · « **Reply #314 on:** 07 December, 2012, 11:14:51 pm »

Well, I am packed, including The One and Only MEMWNS Trophy in its hand-crafted carrying case.

delthebike · « **Reply #315 on:** 08 December, 2012, 07:25:11 am »

Oaky · « **Reply #317 on:** 08 December, 2012, 10:24:45 am »

We are in D's : myself, bobb, bloomers and Rudolph

Having decided all week that I wasn't going to camp and may even drive to the curry house..........I have just packed my tent and adorned my bike in colour co-ordinated Christmas decs.

Have not been able to find the 'Loaded Touring Bike with Tinsel' thread, so will post here. CU later.

(not sure this is what Thorn had in mind when they thought of a 'stealth finish')

Good effort Jen. Have a good one!

Oaky · « **Reply #320 on:** 08 December, 2012, 12:25:53 pm »

We are in the Compasses now.

A slightly delicate whatsisface has joined us.

Wowbagger · « **Reply #321 on:** 08 December, 2012, 01:23:51 pm »

Is Simon Heffer in there?

If so, pour some beer over him. I'll reimburse you for your pint - indeed, I'll stand a round for all the YACF curry eaters in Heybridge to celebrate if you do!

Oaky · « **Reply #322 on:** 08 December, 2012, 02:17:08 pm »

Ah sorry... Saw that too late. We already bought him a pint.

Oaky · « **Reply #323 on:** 08 December, 2012, 02:19:03 pm »

He's a top chap and had agreed to join us for curry.

am staying home to care for her
