Well, that didnt go so well.
Picked up at 930am, total nightmare from then on in.
Towbar guy was 5 hours late, then decided he couldnt fit it.
Nightmare.
Go borrow a 2.2 frontera, pack it, get ready, 5pm ready to go!
Get 50 miles down the road, hmm, tyre has chewed itself on the trailer.
30mins later spare is on, decided not to crack on withut a spare, so turn the bad boy around and head back up the a1.
Get 10 miles up the road and the spare blows, boo!
Crawl up the a1 on the hard shoulder, 10mph, into the roadworks, free recovery, yeh!
wait forever and a day for the recovery truck to appear, then load the trailer with the cav onto the recovery truck. took us all the way back to the warehouse.
Load up the merc & fly down to billing, 2.25hrs later, we are in the campsite lol.
After that, its a bit of a blur, we took 100 bottles of peroni, brought 19 back with us.
Hmm, fri & sat we killed 81 bottles between us, nice.
Im actually suprised i managed to take any half decent photos!
heres a few, rest can be found in my bucket account.

Aye was a cracking weekend, and aye, the merc was our motorway muncher, average speed 70mph, average fuel consumption 53mpg, awsome.
Just a shame we couldnt get the Cav down there on the trailer, wasnt meant to be.

If i only make one show, i make sure its billing 
Sorry Wilson, looks like i missed your car, i bet its when that bloody battery died, sorry, looked cool though, sure there will be lots of pics in other collections though.
