It should be OK up to the day -- we will just have to squeeze a couple of extra seats in around the table!!

thanks RogerRust! as i say, 'possibly' about my girlfriend, she's got a lot of coursework deadlines around then, so she may want a distraction from it that and come with me, or she may not have the time to come with me!

see you there!

Weather looks to be holding 'till the weekend.

I'm going to be busy, but will be there. I have a job to do on the Volvo and a small repair to be done on the trailer tent before we go off camping again in a couple of weeks and there is the fence to repair and ......!

I'm looking forward to it - I saw a road sign advert for it yesterday when I was in Bed's :D

I've got my tax and MOT now (had been a bit lax about that this year :roll: ) and I'm about to order seatbelts. I'm not sure I'll have them all fitted but my passenger/s won't go in the car without any... so mine will probably be last!

Probably M42 then M6 but slower than usual as we're in the Convertible (HWMBO doesn't want the roof blowing off)! :D

It bottled it at 80 (gps) the other day Ray.

I just hope to heck it doesn't rain tomorrow, wipers are a little dodgy at the moment... :oops:

I think I might leave a little earlier than I planned too...
