I have 3 20l cans. Usually need more than one after a good trip out. Did not know there was a problem filling them up no one ever complained.

I know one per trip wont be enough but will hopefully take the sting out a little rather than just using it all then filling up in one go..

I picked up some great cans online. Have a separate vent on them and an auto cutoff spout.

Sheppy (John Shepherd) one of the organisers had a bit of trouble signing in tonight, but he has kind of answered your question about re-fuelling. He says that's a tricky one and is down to the individuals discretion - some turn a blind eye.

Also, they have closed registration but do technically have spaces left. He may be able to accommodate if you mail him direct.

Looking forward to seeing everyone on the weekend ! Not sure if anyone uses this but if you want to see what Brixham is looking like live there is a brilliant HD video stream here, very handy as I can see if my boat is still afloat

Blimey - good luck with that lot, you're way more organised than I am. Not preparing anything at the moment as its 70% probable I won't be running down but I still have an open mind just incase. Doesn't help that 2 ton of timber has just been delivered to start an overdue building project.

Come on come on the Rally the weather looks good and it is only once a year. Timber can wait

Checked out my light board and found the brake lights were not working, Tried another Board and the same. Oh no brake lights bust is Discovery. Went to little man in nearby garage and he replaced the switch at the top of the brake lever. Total cost £10 and it took him about 1 minute to do. Now that is what I call service

List of Jobs almost done. My brother is on his way back from Surrey with his replacement 4 x 4. His other one died last week. Not like us to push things to the wire
