I’ve never had a drop down bed mine is not A class but I’m sure enough brains between us all will sort it perhaps

It has to be done correctly, otherwise there is the risk of a strut suddenly extending once freed, and projecting itself through a front window/screen. It has been known. ;)

DavidG58. Have you tried torquing the nylock nuts to 40lbs per square inch David? Apparently it's an annual check, and often the nuts need replacing. I did mine, resulting in success with the bed remaining in the up position, so I didn't need to replace the struts. (y)

Back on topic ;) I can't remember if we put our names down for the Indian or not.

Cheers,

Jock. :)
 
I believe this is the last list that was posted for the indian but happy to be proved wrong irnbru

We stopped off in Pickering a couple of days ago and can thoroughly recommend the ice creams (y)

It looks like it has loads of nice shops for the basic fruit veg and meat and of course lots more, and Lidl at the end of the road.

We picked up a "Pickering Town Trail" in Costa and Jen is at this very moment reading it. Amongst other things it tells you where the name PickeRing comes from, it also mentions the cast CTC plaque/sign on the wall of the Black Swan, the Cycle Touring Club awarded these 2ft diameter cast iron Plaques to hotels and other establishments and they were important symbols of trade, the signs were categorised and indicated the tariff charged "headquarters" was the top band and there are only 10 in the country of which the Black Swan has one the guide says one of only 5 but other reading contradicts this.

Can you tell we are getting excited;)

Hi, irnbru is there any chance of a couple more at the Indian? As late bookers via the reserve list, I didn't think it would be possible until I saw others were able to.

Here's hoping. If not, we will probably be able to go separately at another point, I expect.

Thanks

Tony

By the time we arrive I reckon Dave will be pickled already (y)

But I promise to bring enough that we can still take some home again :unsure:

Or sell it on Monday before we leave ?

Now hoping to be there and well set up in time for 6 o'clock Chinese on Friday
 
Morning folks, I'm probably not going to get much chance to look in today as mad busy with family stuff - IF anything happens that I need to be aware of for this meet could one of you who has my contact details please let me know, I'd really be grateful for that, thanks x

I'm not a believer in weather forecasts but thought I'd check whether Pickering was going to be OK this weekend, hoping not to see temperatures like those we are going to experience here in Essex (Thursday 35C). It does look cooler, so the fridge might stand a chance of keeping beer cool. What I did notice was a forecast of rain for Saturday, though, which is a bit of a surprise. It might also last into Sunday. That will freshen things up, I suppose.

Is anyone else a classic car fan? I notice that the garage/auction house which featured on a programme called Bangers and Cash is in Thornton-le-Dale, which is only a cycle ride away (3 miles along the A170 - some cycle path/pavement). They have a little museum there, which could be worth a visit. Sadly, there isn't an auction on this weekend, though.

Edit: There is a NYM Moor to Sea cycle route, of which one section is Pickering to Thornton-le-Dale. https://www.northyorkmoors.org.uk/v...gdale-end/8-M2S-Pickering-to-Langdale-End.pdf
