I may well turn up in an MX6 with a tent the way things are looking today.

We'll be there though whatever it takes.

We are even further behind schedule than we planned as I woke up with a migraine. We are going to pop out to the Big M for lunch and then head over. We should be leaving Manchester by 1.30 at the latest so traffic permitting - mid afternoon. We will have forgotten pretty much afternoon.

Great news Debs. I was thinking about you all and reckoning you must have had a fine time with the weather. Sorry I don't get out to these things more - too little time and/or energy and/or cash after family commitments - oh and things and stuff, and stuff and things :roll: :lol: 8)
