Bargain, the robbing Polish bds down here charge me a fiver. Must be because I'm further south than you

[B4rnst4ble]

i think valet might be stretching the truth too!

No difference is they use 240 grit for yours Steve but the Iraqui's only stretch to 80 grit for Mike's

Btw Andrew, what's the surprise you hinted at? Is it Aston Martin shaped?

Well our Astonauts weekend starts this afternoon

We are heading north later (staying near Chesterfield tonight) and would like to fit in a visit to York tomorrow if possible (parking recommendations anyone? ).

Look forward to seeing you all in the bar tomorrow evening

Mhairi, being very experienced in these matters, always uses the park and ride. There's one at the York Designer Outlet ( they use the term loosely, there are one or two good shops but it isn't nearly as good as the one I recall many years ago at Bicester) Location is http://www.itravelyork.info/park-and-ride/park-and... This does, however, involve the use of PUBLIC TRANSPORT so I often park at the Queen Street car park near the station in the old railway sheds. The spaces are more door friendly than any multi-storey, you will be approaching York on the A64 so you turn off onto the A1036 towards the city centre and Queen Street is a left turn just as you get to the city walls. It is then a 10 minute walk across the river to the Minster.

Mhairi ALWAYS goes to Betty's for lunch/ afternoon tea or just a coffee. http://www.bettys.co.uk/bettys_york.aspx. You have to queue outside it's so popular but it's worth the wait - however insist on a table on the ground floor NOT downstairs.

I'm suprised they don't charge me extra for all the little bits of rag and sponge they leave hanging off the trims etc.

Hope you all have a fabulous weekend playing on the roads in North Yorkshire

Apologies in advance if any of the TomTom or Garmin waypoints are dodgy

Sadly due to business travel I can't make it

Hopefully see you on the next one wherever that may be

Enjoy yourselves and keep it on the blackstuff

My car won't return from its service and warranty work until next Wednesday so I won't be able to attend the drive out.

Anything of interest to tell us Phil

Mike, after the stressful few weeks I've had.....I fully intend being an 'S' bend by this time

My next stress-induced day will be next Tuesday and I should have sobered up by then

[897sma]

The Sun's shining and it looks like being a beautiful day. Weather forecast looks ok for tomorrow too, foggy first thing then brightening up.

[robgt]

Just about ready to head to York. I think the residents of the hotel are about to get a surprise alarm call.
Sun is shining things are looking very good . S still looking very clean.
