Not sure what time we'll be leaving. Aim to leave asap but it'll probably be 4-5 depart.
Where are you staying Friday night then - assume not in Blackpool.

Steve, FFG,

Booked in at the Carlee Fri night and Hilton sat.

Hi Chaps,

Will be going for Saturday only, travelling from West Yorks on the A59. Setting off at about 8am, if anyone is taking this route give us a shout.

All those TVRs up there, the AA and RAC will have to call for backup !!!

See you there,

Lig.
