We seem to have a very small convoy going from London to PF on the Saturday morning as early as we can all get up.

At the mo it is myself, Whitey , Sledge (PLUS FRIENDS) and Graham66 I believe.

Does anyone want to join up with us say at Polish War memorial?

What time would be good to get to PF nice and early?

8:30? Does that time exist on a Saturday?

What you 2 doing about tents? I only have a big 8 man tent, so have either of you got space in a tent or should we set up Tuscan Towers?

Graham

PS - 8:30 and back roads sounds ok to me

My men, we are not doing the camping thing thats for oiks!!

Only joking , we are slummin it at a ponsey hotel in Straford...as we are going out clubbing later on Saturday night in town...


I think 9am would be a more acceptable time for all.Not least for the neighbours by my garage

So let's agree 9am PWM, turn up at 8.30am if you want to start the drinking!!

Now who wants to sort out the route, any volunteers? If there are none, it will have to be me and we will prbably never get there!!! as I have no map!!

9am is fine then.

As for navigating, it won't be me as I am a foreigner (as is my passenger) and I am still confused over the difference between A and B roads, and many of the road rules over here especially considering the DVLA gave me a UK licence in exchange for £20 without any sort of test. Fools. So I make up my own rules.

As such, dumping the clutch and leaving twin 30 metre strips of burning rubber on the road is Rule 1 in my rule book...

Tuscan Towers sounds good, I might bring a deck chair or two....

cheers
Whitey

PS. Salty-nlv I have never been clubbing in my life, I thought we were going out on the piss to harpoon some local skinny whales?

I'm too old for clubbing in the true sense, but it sounds good.

So 'clubbing' in this context should read - pulling some local pissed up tarts at the disco!!!

Salty, you know it makes sense & after a few beers what you see & what you get will be completley different, you just need to drink more!!

Will be attempting to sort out a back road route later today, see how work goes...

A bit concerned that my car is still at the bodworks place and it's now Thursday, I'd better have it back before the bloody weekend...
