I'm just paying on the gate, although it's a shame I can't have a trendy designer label under my name

Got a tent borrowed from the Sister in law and just need to get the blow up mattress and sleeping bags out of the caravan.

Beers are taken care of. Food is not required as it absorbs the beer, but I might bring some rice crispies and a pint of milk for breakfast.

Let me know when you hit the A19 Bob and i'll catch up/slow down to join up with you, just give me a txt.

Several PHers meet at A64 / A1 junction so you will need to pull off and join us there. When you come off the roundabout there's an access lane immediately to the left and before the A64 east. Pull in there, turn around and park so that you can rejoin the roundabout. If you accidentally end up on the A64 east it's duel carriageway so you'll have to travel to the next junction and find your way back west.

Try to get there before 10:30. I believe docevi1 and MickC will be with you. WildfireS3 says he is travelling later in the day.

Dexy & I will meet you at the A1/A64 if you haven't hooked up with us beforehand.

I’ll get mrs tvrbob to txt you as we join the A1 from the A19

Yep, I don't have the day off on Friday, so I shall be catching up with you guys on Sunday. Will give Bob and Stafan texts, to catch up with you guys. Alternatively, you can probably find me hanging around the Austec/ACT stall.

I've just been and bought the beer. Is there anything else I'll need I'm sure there's something else important, but can't quite put my finger on it.

No, that's it, beer and more beer. I would advise you bring a credit card as well, just in case you need more beer.

BTW I'm bringing a dB meter so we can get a number for your exhaust.

Any chance you could bring it along to the next NEPH meet bob? I should have the new exhaust fitted by then.

Certainly can though I'm not sure when the next meeting will be. There's not a lot of interest in the Shafto's thread.

Just reading through these threads now that I have internet back (it's been tempremental over the past few days and would die regulary) and just to confirm:

At 10:30 we are leaving the A64/A1 junction and heading to the other side of Leeds to meet up with others at Woolley Edge to head South at 11AM?

Wouldn't it be advised to leave A64/A1 slightly earlier, or indeed meet at Woolley Edge in the first place?

Too late to change things now. The sooner the convoy starts the better. This is how we did it last year and it worked well. Set off early, I will be, so there'll be folk there to chat with while we wait till 10:30.

I plan to leave here before 8, gives me around 2hours to get to Leeds - should be plenty I reckon.

It's 92miles, so with traffic shouldn't take much longer than 2hours? Probably leave 07:30 just to be sure

And I'm not panicking, all mellow , just wondering if I will actually be in the Marlin as I have a bad back, it's fixed and working now tho

Good grief Stefan you'll be there at 9:30. That'll be the time I'll be setting off from home. Why don't you link up with byff & MickC? They're meeting at A64/A1 in time to leave for Wooley at 10:30.

I'm just aiming to meet up with you lot at A1/A64, 10:30. Probably best if we all aim for that without any other stops on the way - if I see someone on the way then I'll likely pull in behind them...

Fate conspires against me and it turns out I won't be making PF after all this year. Through lack of money, no camping equipment and some other things I will not be going. have fun people and take me some cool pictures.
