Good on ya Chris - look forward to seeing you again, 2nd weekend in a row! :D

Hopefully you'll make good progress at that time on a Saturday :cool:

Steve

Yep, we're a 5am start from Edinburgh, then early afternoon we're off to York, and then home to Edinburgh. :D

Have to say i prob won´t be making it.....

I´ve just had a work out at what time we´ll be home and if the flight is on time we won´t land till just after 1am in Manchester... Then the normal hassle of customs and awaiting the baggage, then a bus trip to the car park, so probably won´t even be setting off home in the car till well past 2am... Then a nice night time drive over Woodhead and getting everything in the house means it may be around 4am till i´m actually getting to bed. :eek:

I´ll hopefully be able to make the autumn one that Steve organises.... If Steve does one this year. :thumbup:

Have a good time all.

Cheers

Dave.

If I'd known Dave, you could have parked outside my house and I would have taken you to the airport - only 10 mins from here :)

Hope everything's straightforward for you though. And yes, I will be sorting one later in the year. Late Oct/early Nov as before.

Cheers,

I'm the wrong direction. Could either meet you at Heartshead Moor services or see you there.

hi guys, unfortunately i wont be able to make it tomorrow as ive gotta work now & to be honest i cant afford to turn the extra money down. Sorry for dropping out last minute & have a good day.

Everyone, take it steady tomorrow, BBC weather forecast is for lots of wind and rain tomorrow and considering what I can currently see out of the window there is likely to be lots of water on the motorways

Right, early night for me folks as we're leaving 5am, hopefully the weather holds out, although it's wild up here in Edinburgh at the moment.

See you all in the morning. :)

Many thanks to Matt for organising and putting up with dip****s on the day asking to run :o

v. happy with results :)

Cheers guys..... Well things didn't go to plan anyway and we finally got back at around half six this morning so was defo a no-goer this time. Our plane had a flat tyre earlier in the afternoon so they had to fly another plane from Britain down to Tenerife to take us home.

Hope all went well and everyone had a good 'un.

Steve, how did the Octy go??? And thanks for the offer..... We might take you up on that sometime in the future. ;)

Cheers

Dave.

Just got back myself 420 miles round trip and i'm knackered,But what a excellent day meeting old and new faces heres to the next one:thumbup:.
