Just got to fit some high density foam to my back bumper, just any case any of you lot run into my truck as I'm towing you out

[colley]

Your truck would drive straight though that mate no problem The weight of the JD in the back would keep it planted to the floor

[BoxCleva]

LOL !!!

[MrTom]

Will you be turning up on slicks again this time Si?

[BoxCleva]

Did the Wayfarer, Carwash etc on slicks weekend before last mate no probs on slicks, and they never held me back at the Wales weekend either

[Loneranger]

Si, Just make sure if you do get stuck and need towing out....dont open your door !!!

Whats the thinking on female co drivers on the trip ?

A friend of mine was coming to the annual with me but she has to work that weekend and she's expressed an interest in Strata, as she's off on leave.
Now she's a bit of a tom boy but if the general consensus is a leave the women at home then so be it.

I have warned her about the swearing and drinking but she says we will just have to get used to it, she's not changing the habit of a life time.

I thought I would ask the group if anybody thinks she may not fit in or spoil other's enjoyment as then she will have to stay home, I don't want anybody to feel uncomfortable or they have to watch there P's and Q's.

At the end of the day it's about the off roading and having a crack so I don't want to spoil anybodies fun.

[MrTom]

All I would say mate is anything goes really.
I have done wales with this lot and I'm glad I didn't take my missus to be honest. There will be plenty of language , puking , sexist comments and all the rest in between and that's just Box cleva!
It's your shout really boss.

How old is she might I ask?

She's 53 been there done that and now uses the t shirt as a duster
She spent her best years married to a guy who never wanted to do anything except watch the tv and not a lot else, so now she's trying to cram some adventure in before it's too late.

[MrTom]

Haha I'll let someone else fill you in on why the age question was asked.

Like I said it's up to you mate but I'm leaving the missus at home
