Easter Sunday all the shops will be shut and so the plebs will "go for a drive like we used to". Poss not a good idea?

OK,

Extensive recce yesterday afternoon / evening has revealed a couple of flaws with the original route (single track B roads anyone???) so a small re-route was called for.

I also need to be sure that people are happy for this to be a hoon that will take most of the day. The current route is about 3hrs to the lunch / breakfast point and then 3 hrs home again.

Are people OK with this, or shall I make it shorter.

I have also taken notice of the fact that those with families can't make easter Sunday, so suggest the following weekend.... is that OK?

I shopped at my local Somerfield supermarket on Easter Sunday - they didn't appear to have any problems with the law...
