What do people think about doing gumball style run for 1/2/3 days of the week? Making to certain places in time then carrying on?

If anyone wants to come to this and doesnt want to drive I have a spare seat (shotgun) but you'll have to help me with the costs of fuel

As I said earlier, I can't make it

I'm on a course in Bracknell Monday/Tuesday.

Hmmm I may need to plan something a little better... I was just going to play it day by day. And do a group choice thing?

But if you want to plan it better let me know?

I meant my car, hence me not being in my drivers seat

Gilly · 13 Sep 2004 at 19:03

Thats bloody expensive. It was only just more than that Hull-Rotterdam, with an overnight stay and all meals included!!

chenko · 13 Sep 2004 at 19:04

I was getting quotes of £250 until I went direct to the line operator... :/

Ok sorted what was going on, Returning late friday is cheaper than reutrning on saturday which makes its 230+

To anyone, im looking for someone that is kind enough to lend me a car mount for a small minidv camera, its a bit harse having to fork out about 70-90 for one that is hardly going to be used.
