I feel for you mate. I was on call Friday and Saturday when the weather was dead warm, Had to drive up to Kendal on the Friday, not good fun in a Astra Estate, then Saturday had to watch every one getting drunk at a BBQ then shoot up to Chester le street. But hey double bouble n all that, ended up doing 800 miles and 16 hours.

Just discovered it's Leyburn food festival this weekend
It won't affect you but it means I need to avoid it like the plague!
I propose meeting you all just north of the river bridge in Grinton
Would you care to guess what time you might be there ? :roll:

Nearest post code for this is the Bridge Inn pub DL11 6HH just south of the bridge
But you don't go past it
The pub is round the LH bend as you turn R off the main road
I hope to sit in that bit of access track just north of the bridge
I'll aim to be there for 1100 unless I hear different from you.
Have a good day Friday :king: :queen: I'll see you Saturday :wink:

Gill i am hoping we will be able to plan it so those who fancie a bit of spirited driving can do on the straight roads ie no turning off the route, and those that want a leisurly drive can do, i know not every one likes batting about, so i may ask you to lead that group, will see what people want to do on Sat morning when you arrive.
