Will be the longest trip in the Polara since buying her so excited! I save all my coins through the year for car stuff so will be raiding the jar for fuel etc.... Takes the sting out of it!
Stop moaning Steve. I've got a 2.5 hr drive before I get to you & to cap it all its pouring down here & Im taking the car for the m.o.t in an hour.

Yeah, dont fancy that fuel bill Adrian!! The drive will be good fun though eh! Maybe you need to do the coin thing aswell mate... Really takes the sting out of the car/ trips etc... I stick anything under a note in the jar every night and best I had was £660 over 4 months. Usually £500 every four months... Used it to pay for some paintwork, all my service bits, oil etc, some tools, tyres etc. Great way to make the hobby bit easier to fund!
Guessing everywhere mopar related is a drive for you Ade, but just count your blessings mate, at least you dont live in Brum!!
Good luck with the MOT mate and its pissin down here now aswell

My mother used to HATE being called a "Brumy" or however you would spell it.
She was from Netherton/Cradley Heath and boy did she let people know if they called her a Brumy.
My eldest sister that I lost earlier this year was born in Birmingham though. Something I never let her forget.

Nothing wrong with Birmingham or the Black Country..........
If there is one problem with the local area, then i'm sure it can be traced back to when those Skirt Wearing Jocks came down from the wetlands and stole our Houses and Jobs.

Yeah Dave, but the lucky ones escaped and went back North of the border!
Must buy you a pint at the Nats mate and while I get rid of thr froth off the top of it, you can tell me all the good things that have come out of Brum and the Black Country! Actually, best make it a short eh
Cheers Steve

I'm suprised there's any Yammers left up there, lads. Most moved to Cornwall years ago! Pretty cheery bunch by and large

Would have been nice to have met for a beer Justin... Maybe next time eh. If you are passing you are always welcome to drop in for a coffee and a bite to eat to break up the journey. Same goes for anyone on site, kettle always on, just a PM away.....

I'm with the Celts North of the Wall,
Cos, despite George Lucas claiming I was born on a planet far far away......Darth Vader is actually Cornish, so another Celt
