Anyone here going to be surfing in scotland this weekend...?

Gonna be one hell of a swell! :shock:

Wrong end of the UK for me though :roll:

Oh yes

Its been a while... too long... :roll:

If scotland wasnt about three days away in the van, I'd consider it :wink:

Start now! You might be there in 12 hours!

No chance - well over 500 miles away to the best bits... And there's hills!! And mountains!! And possibly ferries!! :shock:

well im sure if the starter motor that works it "shouldnt" be that hard

Posted: **Thu Nov 09, 2006 11:36 am**

Starter motor works fine now! :lol:

...But you've seen the van's response to hills :roll:

yeah thought i was gonna have to get out a push going up that hill out of watergate :lol:

I know weve missed this lot of swell but what about we all chip in and hire a minibus with say 4 designated stops along the way and take a load of us up that way?

I would be more than happy to arrange this for the next time scotland is the only place in the uk working.

GREAT.... I'd be up for it sometime next year if it's in a school holiday. I'm not lucky enough to be able to day a few days off work whenever I want

Hey surfdude scarbro, when said bus is back on road more than happy to share the juice, it seats eight so there's almost always some space.

dont tell me, you went to kwit-fit and one of their apprentice monkeys overtightened them, or even worse cross threaded them? :roll:

If theyre just to tight they should come off with a bar and a bit of "persuasion", if any of them are cross threaded theyll ned to be drilled out and that can work out to be expensive

alas I've picked up an aextra day of work this weeken but hocking up some some sponge buddies of mine sat night and vaning it to the east coast for sundays swell.

You could pop in and see me on the way up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted: **Fri Nov 10, 2006 9:22 am**

Yep over tightened, the brakes are under gaurantee, so need to be done at that garage, but had new tyres at a different garage after so need to take it back there for wheel nuts to be loosened as first garage said won't risk snapping them. :?:
