Thetford Bash

[Paulypaul]

We're on our way out to get supplies for Thetford (not sure if we're going today or the morning) and are heading towards Cromer. If it is in fact the battery you have Halfords in Cromer and a place called Fast lane in Sheringham.
If you buy a battery and need it picked up and the breakdown can't help, then drop me a line and we can pick it up for you and bring it to you.

 

[chocky]

Thanks Paulypaul
RAC are about 20 mins away. Will let you know how we get on.

 

[Jaws]

Just to make those who have broken down feel they are are alone, the rugby club broke down this morning !
The water pipe used for every one to fill up had a row with the tap and decided to part company !
Fortunately having three gas engineers / plumbers in the family a quick call got a new olive fitted in no time and we are all back in business, but it did cause queue and much chaos !!!
Big thanks to Shane who dropped everything and rushed to our rescue !!

 

[chocky]

Fixed getting new battery in Norwich following RAC who will sort it, and then on our way.

 

[Paulypaul]

Hope he takes you to Multicell in Norwich, that would save you a few quid.
Glad you're sorted

[Two on Tour]

Jaws , John, I hoped that my back would recover enough for the ped racing, but it's still giving me grief, so I'm afraid reluctantly I'll have to back out and disappoint all my loyal fans.

For the brave souls that missed out getting onto the competitors entrant list for the ped racing, a much sort after place is now available if you contact John.

Shame you can't get here. But the reality is you just want to keep that Glenratspiss to yourself.

That has to be some contradiction - sought after place, but brave souls? I fear some trepidation is required.

There's nothing to fear, both, bones and flesh wounds heal over time.

Those wanting to walk to Thetford we've done it a couple of times now and it is 4 mile in and 4 mile back into the centre. GPS used so definitely right. This is walking along the river on the well maintained track. 3 mile will take you to the edge of town where you pass under a road bride (3 mile back ).
Best way to go is the far left of the field through the short wood to the main road cross over onto the track and cross the railway. Go straight on and as you near the river then left and just follow the track through the woods parallel with the river until you join the river and the path runs alongside.

What are the timings for Saturday and ped racing etc please? Probably going for a woodland walk and don't want to miss anything.

I have had an awning stuck in my shed for the last 4years (bought it for the old m/h) per chance I thought I would take it with me and see if it would fit this one. After much head scratching and frustration I finally got it up(roughly) just in time for some very very nice fish and chips to arrive and the heavens opened.
I just lurve fish and chips I do

 

[meanders]

For everyone at the Bash.

Sorry Jev88 missed the post about timings.

Bar and showers open now. May close for a short break 1 to 3 ish unless very busy.

The bikers have gone out. Great show of loads of bikes.

Live music and open mic outside the bar from 3 to 6 pm. Any musicians and singers please come along and have a go. If you have instruments and mic, please bring them, but we have sanitised mic's available if needed. Even if you can't play or sing, come along and support them.

Auction will start about 8pm with music either side.

Tomorrow ped racing will start 10:30 ish followed by the auction part 2 and lunch served from about 2pm.

Anyone not in the ped racing can have a ride after the final. Under 18 with parental approval.

The blackboard is being updated regularly as timings remain fluid.

Have fun in the sun.

Robin and Hilary

 

[meanders]

Just to add: anyone wanting to stay until Tuesday is welcome. With enough support the bar will stay open Monday evening.

 

[meanders]

Interesting topless hat of yours but it does seem to make your hair prone to bleaching.

Nice bear
