I know but I didn't get a chance to wash the car this am (fell asleep after waking up at 5am). Hence going to have to snowfoam and rinse it tomorrow morning.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

I got mine clean this afternoon in between halestorms and showers, only issue is the 100 mile drive to the pod the roads will still be sopping so I probably shouldnt have bothered! Stealth your just be glad you didnt look like a lunatic cleaning your car in the rain!  :stupid:

I've done it once before, but the car used to be parked out of sight rather than on a main road as it is now. Hence trying to wash it now is a bit counterproductive, given the roadsplashes at the moment. Also, the last time I did this, I caught a cold. Not good!

Maybe I should buy some road cones and block the road off. :signLOL:

People can be so inconsiderate at times, feel for you having to keep a clean car thats parked road-side.  you'd think people would be considerate and slow right down as they passed to reduce the splash back  :rolleye:

Which is why, these days, if I scrub the car, I have to get up at 5am and can be done by 10am - before all the sunday morning traffic starts up. Problem is, as I get older, I find it more difficult to stay awake at 5am!  :scared:

Serious question - are there plenty of bogs near to where you are all 'assembling'?

And what time are you all getting there?

If I bring a spade, we could dig our own bog trenches!  :grin:

Around 9-10am arrival. But some may be arriving after 11am.

I've made adjustments to the Revo settings (B7T5F9) but haven't had a chance to test it out properly (too much traffic earlier on). So hopefully will be able to trial it properly tomorrow.

Yup. Missed it during the week so downloaded it and watched it on the PS3 at 0100 today. Very good episode but could have been better.
