Cool site Bob.

Front page is somewhat similar to yours. When I was putting it together I kept returning to this theme. Imitation is the highest form of flattery.


You mean this one?

So how about you gatesheaders pick us Durhamers up at 10:20 Bowburn (Durham) services?

Otherwise we could sit on the A690/A1 flyover waiting for you all to go past then try and catch up

The plan - Changed

Gateshead down the A1 to Junction 48 (approx 1hr). At junction 48 take the slip road to Services. It's a Morrisons. See red arrows on the two maps on the link below. The plan is to meet at these services at 11:00 so leaving Gateshead should be around 10:00. I am planning to meet up with the Yorks lot near Harrogate at between 11:30 and 11:45

At the moment it's only me and minimax meeting at Gateshead.

If it continues like that, the Durham'ers and Gateshead'ers might as well all meet at Durham services at 10.20 instead.

Hello,

after much asking, getting told off for asking the wrong person by mistake and lots of false promises I can't get Sunday off. Pretty upset to say the least as a lot of people said yes, and then renagued once the time neared. I even tried unpaid leave but thats a no-no as they are already 2 people short and won't let me dissappear.

I'm planning on moving my Sunday contracted shift as no-one is prepared to help me out and it means I can only get the day off with a "holiday" day booked a month previous, and as I have no holiday left for the year now One assumes usual events will be happening on a Sunday and not a Saturday? I need to pick another day to request shift change after my hols (after June 4th)

Have loads of fun, and take lots of pictures for me and Dave

Room for one more at Boroughbridge mozzers? It's on the way there for me and much better than pitching up on my own...
I'll be there at 11.00 if that's all right with you
