You better order the parts this week mate and send the block off for machining asap.
st will happen so you need a safety margin. Or your FI build will fail like they normally do, only this time it will be to fail to be ready.

Im on the case

Just applying some pressure as I know Gurmeet is a last minute man.

the route i believe is the more scenic route this time round, taking the E45 north at Hamburg, then onto the E20 East in Denmark heading towards Sweden

I forgot to mention that if you use Quidco and book the hotels though it. You can receive a 10% discount on the bookings

[gsd2000]

ive also booked the premier inn at folkestone for the 30th June, as its only 1.7 miles from the tunnel and was cheap

I think there is something as both links take me to the same hotel in Bremen. I was looking at possible routes today and wondered what route are you planning for the drive up and back after last years trip?

Yeah, its only 150km more than the ferry and the ferry costs 80 euro and takes 2 hours if you include the messing about.
So it cost more and takes more time than the road. So no point.

Plus the E20 is a national scenic highway in Denmark IIRC.

The route looks good. But the links to the hotels are not working properly for me, could you email or re-post them for me please.

[gsd2000]
