Being the boss is sooo good.

its great when everything goes well .so iam going home now enjoy work Bob

before 12 noon sounds good
so 8am start from boro?

8.45am A1 exit 47 junc with a59 (pick up NY bunch)
and those meeting early at Scotch corner?

Woolley Edge Services south bound M1 for 9.30am (for WY bunch)

autoroute claims 2 hrs from there (and thats not silly speeds! )

So we could arrive around 11.30 am ish?
depending on any more collection points

Hows that sound?

anyone else?

[dexy]

Sounds fine to me .Gemini will we join you at the pub car park cant remember the name (the start point when we went to malham).
cheers Neil

[gemini]

come along the a59 a bit further and park on the bridge over the a1

serpently - I dunno what time yet though - what do you suggest?

We reckon Scotch Corner for 08.00 should give us ample time to reach the A1 / A59 junction to meet the others at 08.45 - does this sound about right to you?

We'll be listening for you Our Chim's Paris Blue - similar shade to Nubbin's Tamora.

Also, might be an idea to swap mobile numbers beforehand? If so, please feel free to drop either of us a line through our profiles.

Minimax, just noticed the post on other thread, we'll see you all in the services Car Park. I'm assuming we won't be able to miss you.

Do we need to exchange mobiles?
How many will be coming?
