OK - Here's the challenge my friends, Sat 19th Nov there is a bit of a PH do on in Gloucestershire - at the same time a night race at Brands Hatch - if I do the first half of the race, what are options? Can I still make the doo? It's 154 miles from Brands to Totworth!

Here's a challenge

NO

Google maps 2hrs 44 min

realtime M25

3hrs 40 mins

what time is the start?
what time is the do?
what time will you leave Brands?

Me? i'm not optimistic

will there be hooch?
will there be totty?
will it be yours if you go?

If the answers to the last three questions include a yes or three shall I go for you and you can dash around Brands all night...

I'd allow at least three hours, in your shoes

Hope you have a good 'un

In answer to your questions:

what time is the start? - We think its going to be around 2pm, but as usual good ole Britcar can't give me a start time as yet!
what time is the do? - No idea, suspect dinner is late, drinkies though likely to start from beer o 'clock, so would be nice to be there about then!
what time will you leave Brands? - Hoping to be out of there by 4pm, might be hopeful!

will there be hooch? - er How old are you?
will there be totty? - er.... Point to note - always a good idea to check the sex of the person posting! laugh
will it be yours if you go? ..Not usually but you never know when your luck might change!!!

3 hours I reckon your right - might just be time to squeeze into a frock and hit the bar! party

Thanks for the reply!

driving As an ex AA patrol man, I'll let you off! I have been rescued more times than I care to mention over the years!

I think I am nuts, but I am going for the challenge!

DO IT! tongue out

You'll have been ragging around Brands, you'll be on the pace, just have to swap cars! spin

Or - where is the nearest airport? Know any pilots? Helicopter would work best wink
