I've got a small 850W generator or a 3000W one if needed which i'm sure I could stick on small camping trailer as the bugger weighs 90kg so nightmare to get in boot ha.
Anyone want to meet up at Toddington services?

This posting may have been helpfull, on the other hand probably not... Either way, I may have had drink when posting it in which case it's probably not as helpfull as it could have been
Work safe, and remember all technical problems can be resolved with a hammer, the trick is knowing where to hit it and how big a hammer to use (I often find it may also help to have a spare bit in the shed to replace the bit you have just mullered
)
Work in Progress (or not as the case may be) I give you.... 'O-no' the truck.

Hi All
Glad you chose Sibbertoft, thats just up the road from me (30 min). I did the site May June time with a local 4X4 club and had a great day. The site has changed considerable since Trugga was there in 2008 (we did it then as well). It has matured and there is something for everyone, if you desire you can go extreme and you will damage something, or you can be a little descerning and drive 95% of the course, not break anything and drive it home in one peice (well I did anyway, that was after I showed a lockered 90 I could get further through a deep mud hole than he could). From a spectators point of veiw your in for a real treat because you can see almost all the site from just 2 or 3 vantage points. The facilities are good
Now then on the subject of green lanes, Sibbertoft has quite a few around and about in Leicestershire and Northamptonshire (Northants Lanes don't reopen until 1st May). I have a couple of good routes that I'd be more than willing to guide a small group around that are reluctant to use the site, or just want to do something different.
Suppose I'd better get my name down. Oh £40 is a very good price per vehicle if it includes camping Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Recently paid £16 for one nights pitch at a site that had nothing more than you'll get here.
Roll on 2011

Well lets hope its as much of a laugh as Bala was! More whisky liquer to keep dad happy and make drift forget he was singing to a guitar, no doubt another dankini and without a doubt a sore head or 2 
You had to make it further away than Bala, didn't you Andy, lol. Either way i've got to come to see how many fronties i can break with my time trial arranging skills...mwahahahahaa
At least i've got a tent this time, lol
