I also have around 1500 napkins, so I'll bring a pack of 300 which should be enough for everyone.
Treefrog said:NP mate - glad to find a use for them. I started off with 2400 of the damn' things!
Berserker said:Can anyone who can offer me a lift check this thread on Wednesday night please. I'm not going to give up on Garp's car that easily, and will certaily be crossing digits, but I'd like to make sure there's a plan B. After all the hoo-hah, I'd probably be off to the nearest bridge if I missed out now.
Aye - I had a thought he'd offered and not had any takers. 3 + luggage should be OK. Hope your car does work though.

I'll just have to get up to Reading station, which is far easier to manage than Pembroke

Actually its a fair point its not that hard to find at all
Go to Swansea, follow the M4 (this road actually starts in civilization i.e. 'London' but they do charge you £4.80 to enter the Sheepland theme park when you get to the Severn Bridge) Follow it till it ends at Point Abraham, then transfer to the A48 go through Carmarthen and at St Clears roundabout transfer to the A477, stay on this road following the signs to Pembroke, after Milton take left hand turn A4075 to Pembroke until you hit a roundabout (well not literally hit it but arrive at it).
Take the 2nd exit (straight ahead) which goes down a hill and then turns sharp right at the bottom past the school on your left. Take the left hand turn St Daniels Road (B4319) and follow this off into the wilds of the Pembroke National Park. Eventually (after about 4 miles) this road goes past St Petrox church on your right and bends left down a hill, the house has a concealed driveway and is the first left hand turn you come to after the church, its not far, if you come to another junction marked St Twynnells after the church then you have gone too far
I'll try to put a sign or balloon or something up opposite the entrance so you don't miss it.

Cool. Digits crossed.Garp said:Spoken to the garage, and they're busy until Thursday. Just chatted with the guy on the phone, explaining what happened and he's not too concerned but definately thinks its worth dropping it in to get the EMU error code checked just in case. I can drop it off first thing Thursday, so hopefully I'll know lunchtime ish whats going on.
