A drive is good but i aint driving like an idiot, stopped all that now since my last fun experience, so speed limit for me i'm afraid!

I don't think any of us are going to drive like idiots

I like to drive fast, but I'm not going to do anywhere near 3 figure speeds. If the limit is 60, I'll probably tootle along at 65-70mph depending on how much you can see ahead of you

Plan so far sounds good though. You know any places to eat on the way to the good roads cymatty?

Hmmm depends on what people want to eat, there are lots of good places to eat on the way up but they are limited to pub restraunt types.

Ps i hope i am not taking over all the descions please someone tell me if they have any ideas, i dont think it is good if it appears i am taking over descion making.

Nothing wrong with a nice pub lunch

I don't know if I'll have a drink or not... it wouldn't feel right even having half a lager. Ah well, coke will always do.

Good idea about parking up and having a chat. I was going to bring my camera anyway, but now I've got an ever better reason to.

Firestar_3x · 8 Aug 2005 at 00:22

Pub lunch will be more than fine for me, sure most ppl will agree

Deffo no drink for me AGW not my style

cymatty · 8 Aug 2005 at 00:24

Ok if i know there is going to be a large group i will try to book a place, if there is a small number it is not so bad.

ps read above edited post.

Really need to set a date say Thur / Fri for people to get names in etc so we know the situation, your not taking over anything mate don't worry about it

agw_01 · 8 Aug 2005 at 00:27

No it's fine cymatty. It's actually that you're planning the route etc, as it seems you know some good roads

If I was left to it, we would spend half the day driving round to try and find a good road.

Firestar_3x, coke it is then

Oh, it's AGW btw

ok, phew i didnt want people to think i was taking over, i think fri is a good day people should know by then wether or not they can come.

Firestar_3x · 8 Aug 2005 at 00:30

Easy thing to sort out now between the 3 of us yet its essential.... Names!

Mark

agw_01 · 8 Aug 2005 at 00:31

Yep, Friday is a good time for the MSN convo... maybe Saturday daytime could be better? More chance of people being able to come online at the same time.

I know it's really short notice, but at least people would know for definite if they could make it the next day, and the plans would be in peoples' heads for the following day.

Andrew

So Mark, should I put you down as a definite then?

cymatty · 8 Aug 2005 at 00:32

Simon, ok lets hope we get enough people to come now.

Fri or sat is fine for me.

Sure we will mate, i will fire off some, 'you must attend e-mails' tomorrow to those who aint answered.

Even if its just the 4 of us its worth it really currently counting Simon / Andrew / Mark / Elliot as deffos.
