Well after all the fun and games of Pugfest, im getting properly excited about this (more so about camping than the show its self!)
What have people still got left to do? All i need to do is clean the car and polish out the scratches i managed to make whilst at Pugfest

I don't see why people bother with the show then tbh.. especially when compared to something 'smaller' like pugfest

tbh i think they realised it has been turning to shit and are trying to turn it around this year so am taking it with a pinch of salt.

Should hopefully be lowering the torsion bar and changing the arb bushes this weekend, and giving the old girl a damn good clean. Still need to get my ticket though, but should get the money for that tomorrow. Gonna be honest, this is my first time going to a proper car show, and im absolutely stoked for it! Gonna be an epic weekend, can't wait!

Book my tickets and camping
I'm still on the fence as have a stag do and holiday the weekend afterwards so must look at my moolah. Pretty much only reason I'm wanting to go is because I know the camping will be epic
If I do I guess I'll need to change that front wing so it looks a lot better

10 days? Best get a move on. I will probably leave the big clean till friday night. With a beer or 2.
Oh and get some camping gear together.
We are allowed disposal bbqs right? Or a stove at least?

Er, fix my leaky fuel pump. Which involved finally fitting some parts while the pump's in bits. Fix the boost leak as i found a hole big enough to finger (giggidy), which I guess is testament to the turbo if it still makes 24psi with a massive boost leak!
Er, stock up on veg, get a spare aux belt as mine WILL shit it at some point but god knows when, some spare fuel hose, sift through my tools and decide which ones may be needed in case of emergency.
Fit my sexy pinup vinyl to the bonnet because she's a sexy lady and everyone loves sexy ladies on cars.
Fit a 12v socket as I kinda did away with mine but i'll need it for my inverter (phone charging etc)
..Loads to do I guess. Last minute ftw!
