Think we may need several RV points on the route as we may struggle to stay together - it was tough with 4 cars, let alone 9 or 10! All it takes is one roundabout and a caravan or 3 rolleyes

Put me down as a TBC for the moment as get back from hols the day before...

Far too many dots to comprehend so early in the morning! wink

Directing me one way whilst pointing the other way still makes me laugh! hehe

I can visualise it now:

"Where's John in the Clio?"

"Think he missed the sign; so somewhere near Birmingham I expect..."

Yeah thanks guys! Next time I'll look at the map rather than just rag it (to the next town redface) to catch up

Now that sounds interesting, i could be up for this biggrin
What sort of time are you panning to set off?

I do have a "driving engagement" on Saturday night, so provided we are back in time for me to have an old person's nap, and the weather holds, then sounds good thumbup
