I won't know for another 48 hours if I'm even going this year. The joys of running your own business. Plans are in place though should I get the nod. A combination of planes trains and erm,,, knackered Landy will get me to MB around tea time on Friday all going well.
Safe journey everyone.

Rolling soon. Most of gear, packed last night, leaving Northumberland about 12, destination then Northamptonshire to pick up my son after his work and then overnight at Dover - 07.35 ferry to Calais in the morning. Its been hard not leaving earlier in the week, and I so know now that I regret that I wont be there this afternoon to see the cars on track.
I think for next year it will have to back to the Tuesday departure and the more expensive overnighter from Portsmouth.
