Alex look in the mirror and all will be revealed
although your version may have some extra facial hair

no comment!
Vikki - I'll bring a tow rope in my Moris Camper van. Not likely to need it unless some of the alternator-using folks are taking the same route

I wonder how many Morris Minor fans you can squeeze into a Marina camper...

It was my
dynamo that failed in France this year, and the replacement
dynamo that failed before we got home
And wasn't it your
alternator that
failed on last years LEO

Are you suggesting that this years inter branch challange should be who can change a dynamo the quickest ?
I am hoping that we can have use of the haynes dual control car, where one person steers and the other person operates the clutch and speed of the car. If either person tries to carry out the other team members task a loud buzzer is sounded and you incur time faults. The car can also be driven with a third person who shouts directions to the other two who are blindfolded.
what do you think! <br>

It's amazing how fast you can change a dynamo at the side of a motorway.

Andrew, IBC sounds excellent.
If you can get the track, how about some laser (or similar) speed checks. Great for those who want to see how fast they go, and excellent for those who just want to know if their speedo is calibrated properly.
