Muddy in Dorset?

DomEllis · Mar 25, 2009

Anyone up for getting muddy this weekend? Preferably Saturday but I might be around on Sunday.

I've got a pal who'd like to come along in his Jeep so we can laff at him...

DomEllis · Mar 25, 2009

I reckon I'll be busy pullin' my mates Jeep out of puddles.

Where abouts are you going / meeting?
I'm up for it as long as I can finish a bit of welding tomorrow (in the rain :doh

.

Dunno, depends if anyone's coming who knows the lanes round these parts. I'm quite new to it mesel'. I was thinking of maybe heading out over the ridgeway (near Shaftesbury going towards Salisbury) and coming back down the droveway.

Any suggestions anyone?

I know that feeling.

I spent the last of my wages getting replacement, replacement parts to get mine sorted.

Taking the day off work the other week cost me a fortune in lost wages, fuel and parts.

Don't forget to check there's some gas in the cannister a couple of days before you wanna use it. Sods law says it'll be empty otherwise.

Have you thought about selling some of her shoes and handbags on ebay to raise some money.
