if we plan to do the faster main road route to cambridge, what time you want to set off? it is still going to be top side of 3hrs so about 7.00?

also do we meet at a different petrol station as that one is heading wrong way now?
are we still picking up anyone on route?
We aren't collecting anyone I know off .
Tesco petrol station at the Ricoh arena just off m6 j3 at 7am

I was looking forward to meeting you BTT :(

Well, I'm all set up! 80 squids on food etc, most of my drive is undercover now with a marquee. Hauled in extra paddock stands & now I'm on my 4th tequila and beer combo :)

I've set 2 alarms :lol:

Really hope you guys aren't put off by the weather, it will be showers and you will be undercover, fed and hopefully giggling all day.

Hope to see some commitment, you only live once!

Tools packed, waterproofs sorted out, iPhone wired up for sounds and satnav duty and both routes plotted out :thumbup:

I have also brought some brake pads to fit incase I get bored, I could also get round to fitting the carb air screw adjuster but only if it stops raining :thumbup:
