There's a party going on in our tunnel, and everyones invited.

I'm not sure that reads in quite the best way. I think it's your cue, Podie.

Sorry I've been so slow on catching on to this, but I've been on my back for the past couple of days.....

Podie meet me at the Marriott (where we met for the Epping meeting - its only 2 junctions from you) and we'll drive down to Big T's it's only 10 minutes from here and cos I don't know how to get to the Green Man either.

Is that OK with you Big T, what time do we need to be at yours?

Good news guys and girls. Will definately be able to go on Sunday, as I have spoken to the other half and she has given me the approval to go (not that she had much choise anyway)!

The only problem is that I'm not sure if I will be able to make the convoy on the way there. It depends on how early I get up and how quickly I can get ready. Also got to try and make sure that I don't too much at my engagment party the night before.....

Please bear in mind though that if I am able to join the convoy, I can't 'blat' around, as I'm running in my new engine at the moment and I'm limited to 3000 revs and 60 MPH..... So if anyone goes above that and looses me, I'll be very and won't be best pleased as I won't have a clue where I am!

Easy Tiger No, sorry Lisa, I hope you're OK, wondered why you went a bit quiet. Not too serious I hope.

No probs boys and girls. I'm only 5 odd minutes away from the Green Man roundabout, it's at the top of Leytonstone High Road and the O'Neill's is on the left, you can't miss it.

Also remember to make some noise on the approachment to my property please

Lisa - Would it be ok if I joined you and Podie at the Marriott (if I can get there on time)? I'm not sure of the way either and I think that it would be easier for me to meet you all there.

Thanks for the map Colin. As it happens, I already have the directions to the Rose and Crown just in case I need them. It's how to get to the Green Man rounabout on the A12 that I'm not sure about.... Should have made that a bit clearer in my post - doh! Sorry mate. Thanks again.

There is a 10% chance that I will make it, but there is a 90% chance I won't. But then again 97.76356% of statistics are incorrect.

Podie, if I'm able to make it I'll give you a ring in advance.

No problem, the more the merrier. Come off at Jnct 26 and the Marriott is at the roundabout on the north side of the motorway.
