OK folks - Bank Holiday weekend 24/25 May looks best for me at the moment. Not settled on the day of the weekend yet, depends what SWMBO has planned :) My preference would be for the Sunday, but I'll confirm by updating the OP here. I'm aiming to base the treasure hunt around the areas covered...

Thanks for the interest and offers for help. I'll look at dates (need to avoid the LZ 10th!) and then get in touch by PM. Hopefully your landy isn't too sick! I'll post more details here.

Don't agree entirely... Yes, the question has been asked before, but things move on and it would do no harm to get more up-to-date views and comment. I've found many "standard" size tyres are hard to find so seeing what is current (and available) would have some use...

Well, I've booked onto C4H. Feel I should try it at least once! :D

** Date and Time Plus Entry Table ** Date will be Saturday, 24th May. Probably starting lunchtime-ish so folks can have picnics/pie and chips before setting off. Finish would be from around 6-ish at a pub. Please indicate if you will want to eat at pub, I'll let the Landlord know numbers the...

I'd like to do the convoy,would be fun. I'll just confirm with SWMBO and get my booking in :D

That's one can and a box of straws then... :D

Well I took the advice of using a wooden template and following it with me angle grinder - worked a treat :)

With the weather as it is, you should always make sure that using the lane is not going to wreck it by making the ruts even worse - stick to lanes that have a well drained surface. Oh and best not to go out on your own :)

I've got a sheet of 2mx1mx2mm treadplate (ALU) that I need to cut a large rectangle out of. I've got no particular special metalworking/fabrication tools (I do have angle grinder,jigsaw), but I'd like to get a straight cut. Any suggestions for how best to get a straight edge without hassling a...

Got it MOTed :D:D:D:D:D :banana: :5bparty: :5bcheers2:

My idea...move this to the Discovery section? :rolleyes:

I will be restarting in Swansea on 6th January so could bring back to NE Hants anything still needing collecting on the 9th. Only my Focus, so nothing too big! PM me if required.

Mmm, was contemplating going out on the 27th, but with the weather being as it is, I suspect several of the lanes would be unsuitably wet or blocked with fallen trees. Maybe in the new year, after me MOT and armed with gardening tools :D

Hi, certainly most of the ones I do in my bimbles are scratchy to some extent, so wouldn't recommend if you like your paintwork! Frensham is always an option - saw an Evoque down there last time I was out!

Fitted M+S tyres ready for the Winter :D It can snow now... :bounce:

Bring em along... probably need someone to attach the recovery strop down the boneshaker :D :D

I haven't been out for ages - anyone fancy a bimble around the South Basingstoke lanes? Would be a later start on Boxing Day :D but could do 26/27th - any interest? Christmas Eve is the day for the last minute panic buys!

I went out and ordered a standard fob and programmer. Was delivered very quickly and worked a dream. Sent the programmer back and deposit was refunded the day after they acknowledged receipt. Took less than a minute for the programmer to do its stuff. Fob is pretty flimsy to be honest, but does...

You have a PM
