OH shucks thanks ...... Ok what about i personally pay for a banner if Jim thinks he can get one for £20 odd why dont i but 2 so we can have one going each way so anyone passing either way will be able to read it i dont consider £50 odd to be extortionate if someone else handles cards and leaflets Sercretary thats really a secs job let me see a copy before you print anything off though please [a note from the wise make it as clear simple and consise as poss though as it might just be read that way] Jim we need you to confirm or otherwise the costs of these banners and where they came from but more importantly if we can get one in around 6 weeks ??

Oh the shame! I could borrow/commandeer Julie's Astra for the day but she will no doubt find an excuse why she needs it. besides.... I can't afford to put the petrol in it as it seems to do 18mpg being an auto.

Quote (RS_ROB) Scotland to France to Bvf to France Rob don't you mean Scotland to France to BVF to Scotland all in the space of 7 days PHEW and i intend to miss out the dreaded M25 thx i wonder how many actual miles that will be ??? anyone wish to hazard a guess on it ?? SO from my home in Loch Lomond to Dover, from Dover to BVF, and from BVF to my home in Scotland is ________ frightening with fuel curently at least in Scotland locally at £1.28 p/l

Quote (Admin) i intend to miss out the dreaded M25 thx No such luck mate unless you intend to drive the whole of the south coast to southampton then north up the m3 & cut through basingstoke to the m4 & then follow the longer m4 to the m5 @ bristol, you may as well carry on at southampton & fit in weymouth then exeter & accross to the south west & up the m5 trhough bristol (well see you saterday morning then ) to be honest mat when you leave dover M20,M26,M25,M40 OR M4 if you wish then up the A329 to the M40 if you have an early boat & do this rout in the afternoon b4 4pm it will be clear as a bell. same goes for getting to dover M1,M25,M20 between 10am & 4pm its clear & plain sailing apoart from the 50mph section where its being widened to 4 lanes between j27 & j28 I live for the M25 & it gets me great eaarnings if worked correctly. on route to bvf you can junction hop from j13 to j14 & save 40 minutes if it is busy & laugh at everyone queing on the 25

Thanks for that my eye in the sky traiffic reporter ok another for you then since you know it so well we are staying in Slough overnight on the way down and driving to Dover on Monday having to be at Dover for 1pm for a 2pm sailing what worries me is time it is quoting us about 1.5hr-2hr from Slough but if i choose to do it at say 11am i might manage however if i was to want to see Dover and the white cliffs in all i would have to leave early bells thus how can i guestimate what time i need to leave to safely make the ferry and by which route being the easiest remebering i will of driven from Scottyland the day previous ..... our Sat nav directions tell us to miss the M25 btw ?? i will dig it out and copy back to my sd card the route next time im out as we are in a crap area here fro signals to them... Why Slough ??? good question we know we can do it in a day no probs its close enough we never intended doing it all in one day and we managed to get a good deal on a Travelodge type place premier inns i think doing a package with the 2 nights coming back meaning this one is FREE which i like an all round winner, apart from which if time allows i will pop up and see my friends in Maidenhead whilst there making it a very round round trip.....

Well in that case mate Id suggest staying on the south side of the 25 to the 26 & 20 that way you miss all the roadworks so thatll be M4 to london & turn right onto the M25 & plain sailing to dover with no worries a 9.30 sett off should see you miss the rush hour traffic any later will miss it all The north side is longer from slough..........

Count me in lads. Not sure about mrs boater yet, she seems to think that a hen night would be more fun, (I'm working on her with costly phone calls) . So i might have a spare ticket closer to the time. I'm working on my mate to bring the mytery machine, but he may have a white water event in nottingham.
