East Midlands meet 4th September *** REVIEW***

[BoxCleva]

With respect Dean it can be a little difficult to decipher your posts, so if I have misunderstood I apologise.

No one has had a pop at you. So what if you need a spanner day to sort your car ? Gentle ribbing when someone gets stuck is par for the course. I got the sh1te ripped out of me for ages about getting stuck at the lost lake ( and rightly so) , it's banter fella. We all have broad shoulders, get on with it

[AskDean]

hey i was the first one to say get the cammera out.

the fact that before i got in the house there was a whole page on what was or would be wrong with it, rather than any one simply asking hows the truck it was all servers you right for dunking it. the fat i put there is nothing wrong with the truck seems to put people off and og your eml is on it is a be series find me one that isnt at some point.

this is not the first time i have dunked it and it wont be the last i didnt by a fronty to go the shops i bought it to go off road be it sand snow or sludge.

the amount of fun i had can be measured by the amount of time it takes me to clean it

this is why i had it mapped for more torque becasue ask any of the guys will tell you the big hill is a laugh and next time i promised to stay out of the puddle but then i am quite sure if i had not done it rob was eyeing it up for a go
right the truck is clean so i am off to shower the rest of sludge off me

[BoxCleva]

Again, I'm struggling to make sense of your post, but if I read you correctly Rob was there ?

I'm sorry , but if Rob was there I don't believe for one second he didn't take the pee more than we have (unless he was having an off day )

Ask me, Simod, Stevd and countless others about getting stuck or doing something daft. Getting ribbed about it for 6 months afterwards is all part of it I'm afraid. The fact you had fun doing it is brilliant, just don't expect sympathy when you come back on the forum

FFS I wore a mankini for half an hour one evening 4 years ago, I still get stick for it now

[adyclemo]

Well I have just got back in after watching the local retards street race as they do every Sunday at Netherfield. Car running ok but I be damed if I can get rid of the smell of that horible stuff dean was stuck in, every thing I smell its there, maybe i should go have a shower see if that helps.

[adyclemo]

....and daddy shouldnt go into the duck pond

What kinda duck lives in that pond?????

Something that's a mutant that's for sure.

andy you just need a good scrub it comes right out. once i finshed hosing the truck back to a cleanish state it was the first thing i did after eating.

yes rob was there i am sure his truck was parked nex to mine in the pics and he posted he was home safe after draggin my sucken arse out the puddle.

i know i type fast and some times it dont spell check it afterwards but hey its only fun or meant to be

[gregster]

I did Robs post at the top of the thread, when I started the review thread for him and locked the other thread...as far as I am aware Rob hasnt posted yet.

[gregster]

so your posting for him now as well

sorry i was mistaken i wasmixing up the my txt from rob about apollguising for not being able to wait around for si and as having to get his lad home and cheers for a good meet and what i had read on here as i was catching up on the phone as been out side for ages so missed the text

[gregster]

so your posting for him now as well

As mods we have various tools that we can use to manage the forums, one of which is the ability to be able to change the poster of a post...
I started a review thread ready for when you guys got back, and changed the poster to Rob as he organised the meet and thats only fair.
Mods/admin often start threads for reviews for members to make it easy for when they return and so that all the posts get into the right thread, hence why I also posted in the organisation thread with a link to this thread, and then locked that thread.
I also sent Rob a pm so he knew that I had started a review thread for him...
So I cant really see what the problem is Dean, this is just one of the many things we do to help members and keep the forums tidy and concise.

[AskDean]

thought i apollguised for getting the post and txt mixed up not to worry

as for your posting in robs name fair do's not a problem i did put i got it mixed up or i am sure that is what i put but not to worry

i is off to bed

[gregster]

please...

[adyclemo]

To be fair I wasnt expecting rob to post till this evening as last night after the meet he had a 300+ mile round trip to take his lad home. Robs truck seemed in good health after yesterdays anticts and i have no reason to believe why he shouldn't have made the trip. Unfortunately I don't have any contact numbers for anyone on the site so I can't find out.

[Drift]

He is fine but knackered, he posted on FB

[horses45]

well i was thier and it was good me not getting stuck for once but again thanks to all that turned up.im now at work so can't post my pics till i get home at 10. but after the pit i had to rush off to get reese home and collect some things on the way back so i got in about 1:45ish and my head was mangled and just logged in to say i was checking in from bed on FB .and i had docs this morning the set off to work at 12 so time wasn't on my side to post my pics up.my truck seemed ok on the way home still the odd smell of burning now and then ,but the thing that made it for me was dean said "i'm going to hose the truck when i get home" to which Reese replied "your gonna need a Bigger Hose" so deadpan i nearlly wet myself but hey he is my son and the seed dont fall from the tree .but seemed a good day with the only casualties were ady's tow bar and strap and gazeddys strap and now funny shaped bow shackle.but my pics will be posted up but i need to pm gaz eddy as i want to ask him something .so laters peep and a posting tonight so watch this space

[AskDean]

glad your alright fella got back earlier than thought today so going to have a crack at that box later.

when you come over to pick up might find some extra bits wacked on it for you

shame i got stuck but next time your this way si wants to come and have another go now he knows he can potter around and stay safe even on road tires but will get a sign put up saying no frontys in the pond.

cant wait for the vids me stood there with on sock on.

gave it a mild wash last night as lights where a bit dirty cant think why and then took the rest of the bash plates off and gave the under side ago and got 95% of the sludge off some keeps dripping out of the holes in the chassis but cant do muh about that at present.

next time 10am start i think and bring the barbque

[Gazeddy]

Hows the n[quote][/quote]umber plate search goin Dean

[AskDean]

new one on just resizing the pics from the underbely wash today as truck is fine a few stone lighter now i got most of the mud off and water out the spots

parked in my normal spot



started with a quick engine bay clean out




then got the bash plate off and left my lad to do the underside while i took the photos and was not lying on my side on the floor with the jetwasher lance to get right underneath











and hey presto as if i had not even been out for a play
