All were/are like family members and its always heart wrenching when we have to part with them (DAFT OR WHAT?!!!!) Afterall, this is ukcs !!!
------------- no matter where you go.........there you are
Our Pathfinder (whatever his name will be!) will be towed by 'Deggit son of Deggit' (a Mondeo) and 'Posh Pab' (a Picasso) - previous cars have been Odie (C3), Pablo (a Picasso), Deggit (Mondeo), Dennis (Omega), R2D2 (silver Ka), Tinky Winky (purple Ka), TK (Sierra) and Sam (Talbot Samba), and TK was the only girl! Glad to find I'm not alone.

ScamisOH and I can't think of a name for our Pathfinder - he's definitely male, and definitely NOT a Percy!! Any bright ideas?
How about paddy or patrick spelt (packtrick) because lets face it , it can be trickey packing everthing in just the right way
Or how about (phics) patrick. Anagram for chips which go really well with scampie and a bit of tartare sauce. Mmmmm nice
Bobbie with an 'ie' IS a female name as far as I know - short for Roberta - have you not seen the Railway Children?!!! I'm still hoping that once the Pathfinder is home, his name will just 'happen'! If ScampisOH struggles pitching it, it'll be 'Bloody Thing', so let's hope that, for once, he reads the instructions!! As for being bonkers - maybe it's a folding camper thing?

NO PeterJohn, but we did try out the beds before we bought our sterling. The salesman thought we had gone out of the shop, but when he pulled back the privacy curtains ................. there we were LMAO!! Don't know who was more surprised ......... him or us.
