Journey to my second 180
 
Well as I sit waiting on the bus, so begins my journey to Milton Keynes to pick up my next Zed!
And because this site is epic, Ross is picking me up and letting me crash at his tonight before the spirited drive home.

Think I'll be getting the pizza tonight!

KevG 30-09-10 11:38 AM

p_b82 30-09-10 11:56 AM

i dont envy you that trip on the bus.. longest i can cope with is about 3 hours across the motorway to london...

Glad it hear it is for a good reason tho - enjoy the drive home :D

Dan1971 30-09-10 12:13 PM

Mate - that's got to be a 6-7 hr journey in a coach !

Anyway ... enjoy the trip ... and the run home even more.

Nor 30-09-10 12:15 PM

Yeah, must be tough by the bus.

mattie007 30-09-10 12:27 PM

I did Northampton to London the other day and its the last time I use a bus!

Kat2512 30-09-10 12:34 PM

9hrs but cheapest way to get there lol
Hope you're surviving the trip alright

Smokey 30-09-10 12:59 PM

It's actually not too bad, and Kev did you miss the track car post, I bought a cheap mk1 saloon off eBay.

BUCKYDEVIL 30-09-10 02:01 PM

Hope the coach trip aint too boring mate, sure it will all be worth it .

Smokey 30-09-10 03:03 PM

That could of been me on my way to or back from Birmingham!

Smokey 01-10-10 10:29 AM

Probably was matt. Now 100 miles in, I might stop smiling soon. Doubt it though feels good to be back in a 180!

And Ross, thanks again to you and Sam putting me up for the night. You guys were good company.

mattie007 01-10-10 10:49 AM

Thats what people say when they sell a 180 and go back!

p_b82 01-10-10 10:52 AM

glad you survived the trip down and are enjoying the drive home :)

peterzs 01-10-10 11:18 AM

I reckon thats why Smokey bought it so far away.

So he could have a long trip back home.

Hope he has a safe trip back and I bet he will be smiling all the way.

:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
