Don't think I have much to add to this generally I carry a fair range of spare parts that would suit all. I will be taking a large breaker bar and axle sockets as I've recently had trouble with rear wheel seals and brakes hopefully sorted now. good trip up to Coventry and back no problems and averaging about 28 mpg so seems to be running okay
Have done some A3 copies of the map so everyone can have a copy which may be easier to read as I have increased the scale abit .
Won't make the 6pm kick off as I will be working that day so won't be back till about then so probably met up with you later at Dover.
cheers
owen

Just a thought probably already have it covered but a list of thinks like points , plug gaps, common torque settings etc might be useful if your memory is like mine.

Carl I have my brothers brake bleeder now to if needed

Owen,,More than happy to leave a bit later and wait for you, if the others agree, would 7pm depart be any better or there abouts. ?

Ron
Carl/Helen/Dave ???

Daz, how are you for Sunday? or later Sat evening? (We are out Sat 'luncheoning' in Oxford, don't know what time we will be back though).
Can we also pick up the walkie talkies? (We've got one back from Steve)

Owen, can you make a later depart?

We should all be registered for 75th at Wolfsberg - just waiting for our names to appear. Mine took a few days, don't really know as I wasn't expecting to see my name on there. We need to sort payment when we are there.

Looking forward to it

Spoke to Owen last night, he's still hoping to travel Wed night but can't be certain about times as he gets in at 6 pm.

Looks like the Esplanade is OK, near'ish to garages, don't know about public toilets, may need a pee bottle for the night.
The M20 services charge £10 parking, lots about getting parking fines etc and being dirty & noisy.
Can always get food etc at chippy / pub and last toilet stop before parking up


Just another thought weren't there showers on the ferry?


What do you think 
Also spoke to Neil Smart too last night. He will be sending us details about camping and factory tour in Hannover. I think this is the camp site and I will get us all booked in. http://www.camping-blauer-see.de/en/camping/overview.
There are 19 vehicles approx going to Hannover from the SSVC. I'll keep you posted

hi everyone, good luck on ur journey, has everyone got a spare wheel or two, (for those of you with different sized wheels back and front +different wheel bolts if needed) wheel wrench and jack, hazard triangle , daglo waste jacket and first aid kit as I think it is the law to have these in ur veichle in france I think. good luck , have fun , drive safely and send us a post card.hope this fills in some gaps on what to take if u havnt already got them,i know what its like to be sat on the side of the road . happy cruiseing, robby and kate .ps fao Ron, make sure u take ur porta potti ha ha.

got most things covered now. Thanks a lot Robby

Nearly that time and getting excited, think the pee bottle is a good idea,(emergencies only of course), thanks Robbie ha ha, Just getting last bits done to bus, Nut and bolts and fluids all checked, tyres and spare WHEELS all sorted,a little food and some clothes and cash and ready to go, Oh,,,wash and polish on the next dry day, sad i know but scrubbed under my bus yeasterday and sprayed the whole underneath with wax polish,,,no i did not shine it up,,,but i did inside the wheel arches:D

Ron

All our names are on Wolfsberg participation list....yay!!!!

Thats great just wait to hear what time we are leaving Wednesday evening from Andover, excitement kicking in now, count down.

Got details from Neil re Hannover - I have sent you emails about it and printed off the maps etc.

having spoke to you all last night we are hoping to meet / leave from 7.00 - 7.30 pm on Wed night. (Owen will be the deciding factor although Carl will probably be late too.)
Just printing off all ferry details at the minute.

Have you seen the BBT4 blog? Bob has emptied the warehouse / museum and has polished his floor, no wonder his busses are so shiny.
