Thankyou for the kind offer Em, truck has only two seats, however We wont be going mad this year,there are some new faces here so will drive accordingly, the lanes are mostly easy anyway and my better half Julia will be around and about,she just does not like being bumped around the cab anymore so has decided not to ride with ME!! :cry: :roll: :ok

Em! I don't know yet which lanes we'll be doing, Jenny or Roger or Simon or ? usually decides that, I just drive them or try to...

But there is a great variablilty in that area, some awkward and some straightforward and some deceptive, and some edgy.. best thing if you want to drive is take it step by step, or lane by lane, and maybe a goo idea for someone to sit in with you who's been there done that, if we can find such a person. So far we're not sure who's coming, unfort Pete and Sharon aren't, because either would be ideal

Anyway, we'll work it out on the day or night Oh yes, we've finished off some Fridays in the dark, Ohhh Errrr :x

Just ordered a mirror bracket and ariel for my beginners CB (Moonraker Minor). Will anyone have an SWB meter and be able to help me set it all up when we get there?

Thanks,

Pete

Ferry is booked now.

Going to France, do a van/dub show and then chase the sun and chill.

Trouble is now Sharon's limited to 4 weeks break it alters our traditional summer holidays somewhat. Hey ho, maybe next year.
Have fun and watch out for tricky narrow lanes :wink:
