I am on the train to Stow. Apparently if I knock three times on the yellow door I will be given the keys to a yaris
Then I head for Halifax where I have to put the keys through the correct letter box and make a discreet exit
Excellent.
We will need pictures
Nice work fella... Impressed.
Nice!!
Where's Stow? Stow-on-the-Wolds? That's a long way from Scotlandshire, if it is!
If it's Stow on the wold I am on the wrong train where is my map?
I'd put pictures up if I could make Flickr work on my phone
It's like the opening of 'The Transporter', with TJ playing Jason Statham. My money's on there being a kidnap victim tied up in the boot. 🙂
It could be andrewh!
Thankyou to everyone for doing all this.
I have my own mini journey this morning too, riding Lyanda's electric wheelchair about a mile and a half to its new home. Feeling emotional about it, letting something significant of hers go. But i think it's going to the right person, and definitely something she would have wanted.
This needs live tracking... evidence of Ginster comsumption and Magic Tree placements
Apparently Danny Boyle is doing a film called Yarisspotting....
Well done Tj and the team....
Is there a tracking page where we can dot-watch?
"Apparently Danny Boyle is doing a film called Yarisspotting…."
I think this one is more Peter Jackson territory tbh. 🙂
Safe Journey & I doff my hat to you T.J.
Nice one fella 🙂
I'm laughing and crying in equal measure!!!
Superb effort by all involved. Well done people.
love this place (sometimes)
In a lay-by south of Selkirk. Refuelling with a "breakfast pie" and a can of irn bru
Autumn mists and mellow fruitfulness all around. Gonna be a good day
Brilliant story chaps - love & hugs to all involved making this happen!
Hope all goes smoothly Teej. You're clearly not as bad as everyone says are you! 😀
[thumbs up emoji]
Well done to all involved. 🙂
This whole story has really touched me and, I think, numerous others.
Bloody good effort, all!! 👍
I've missed the back-story to this (have had to work FFS) but sounds like a fantastic STW story.
I hope TJ is insured 🙂
Shout when you're passing Leeds, I shall stand to attention and salute the maiden voyage of the Gnusmobile!
I’ve missed the back-story to this
Good effort to all involved.
I like the idea of a live tracker and somebody else racing them to the final destination on a brompton/train/coach ala Top Gear 🙂
This thread needs garmin live track urgently
Needs a theme tune too!
I think TJ just passed us near Carlisle. He was speeding and swigging from a can of Special Brew.
And put some clothes on, for God's sake!
I’d put pictures up if I could make Flickr work on my phone
Use Post Image. Flickr is shit.
Damn it tj. If I'd been on the case you could have stopped in hawick for real cuppa and a cake. I'd even have put the dog in a different room. 😃
Good luck.
Fantastic thing to do by all concerned, well done everyone 😀
Southwaite services stocking up on pasties
Loving this thread.

All those pasties pies and irn bru - the suspension on that Yaris is going to be suffering something terrible.
- the upholstery might need a Febreze too......
God speed gnusmasmobil!
Well done to all involved.
It's good to be reminded that people can (and will) do nice things for no other reason than it's the right thing to do.
Si
Mixed emotions from MrsH this morning, very sad to see Little Yaris go after such a long time, got very fond of it, been to all kinds of places with it, but also pleased to know it's going to get a refurb and a new lease of life. And a new name apparently, we've always just called it 'Little Yaris' but Gnusmobile does sound good.
is it a silent 'G'?
Elibomsung?
Siray the Gnusmobile?
This is brilliant! Top marks to all involved.
Siray the Gnusmobile?
Don't be silly, siray only works on i phones.
Just spoke to TJ and the car has been dropped off at mine
Stage 1 complete
This story is amazing. Well done everyone!
