Random Road Trips

[NobbyClarke]

Hi all,

Me and my mate have decided that tonight when i finish work (7.30) we are driving to Loch Ness, can anyone recommend things to see or do whilst there (other than find and capture the loch ness monster, train it into a performing circus act, pack up work and go on tour)?

Thanks

Nobby

Also any funny/interesting road trip stories will be appreciated

[jasonmayall]

Sounds awsome.
Need my car back on the road so i can do things like this again.
Still, never been to scotland!

[Tontsy]

Driving from Lincoln to Paris (Night there) then driving from Paris to Monaco )3 nights there) then from Monaco to Milan (3 nights there) and then Milan to the Nurburgring for a 3 day music festival and then on to Amsterdam before heading home!

Some drive that, done a few drives to scotland, but then again, im 3 hours closer! If not more! But good luck, go into a scotish pub, thatll be a shock to you if you find a country side one!

8 hours + from Coventry to the Loch Ness, seems like a shit idea to me.

the M1/A1 for most of it!

swing by newcastle!

[dondan]

I wouldn't drive past Yorkshire and all the great lakes/rivers/ roads and scenes just to get to loch ness.

Lake Windermere, Kielder etc all far closer and a nicer place to be :).

Summed it up quite nicely...

[dondan]

Why not drive to the coast, watch the sun come up with your little gay buddy and smoke some good weed- that's a mission to look forward to after finishing work :).

Cos then you've got the problem of a stoned driver on the roads...

Who said anything about driving stoned? Drive to the coast, get stoned, sit about for hours talking shit, walk to a service station for munchies and a red bull- few more hours chilling and a drive home fit for a sobriety test :).

Driving stoned is a daft idea I agree :).

[edwcorst]

go to dovedale ! me and a few friends are going on a random 'survival' camping trip there tonight and over the weekend lol

[stupotvtr]

Drive to Edinburgh/Glasgow, have a night out.



Random road trip story: Decided at 8pm one night for me and a mate to go to Aberdeen on a night out, got there about 10:30 checked into a hotel I booked on the way there drove back home next day.

Dont drive anywhere and spend the money on cider and jager and enjoy your friday night like a bawss..

Just dont shut your mates paito door drunk with your 17 1/2" guns hard drunk and smash it, they cost £250 to replace :(

Cider is for fags who cant handle spirits!

[Jazz]

Me, my dad and my bros are going to do a drive down to Monte Carlo end of July, will stop off on the way in france and get photos/vids etc.

We're taking my dad's E90 320d which does upwards of 600 miles to a tank on the motorway which should keep fuel bills in check.

I do love a good road trip.

I did a awesome small road trip with my mates when I had my saxo
Heard news from a buddy of ours living in Devon that there was a house party going on well worth the drive, im pretty sure we headed out around 7 pm (late I know)
After a serious ball ache following one of my mates 30 miles the wrong direction we finally got there, im pretty sure it was Halloween, we got to a little village called paigtonI believe (correct me if im wrong)
Four cars full of welsh piss heads jumped out, the whole house party came out starting on us all before we even spoke a word, they all realised we'd come from wales to attend and reluctantly welcomed us in, the guy whos house it was really didnt want us there aha

Mate, its grim as fuck. Lived there for a while and it made my japper bleed with unhappiness.

[Gabbastard]
