Miles Lands End to John O'Groats has now changed to London to South of France with a few mountains between me and the Mediterranean Sea

Are you going on the spring run Peter...hence the reference?

Thanks Pat. Post 21 altered accordingly.

Guys (and girls), I am gioing to have to cry off the Ace, hotel and meal parts of this fine weekend as a significant issue has come up. Both Jeanette and I will be going to the Karting still so I'm sure there will be scenes akin to the mad cat woman in the Simpsons occuring on the track when she is behind the wheel!

Oh well... Will have to double the efforts to make the Monaco run work now....

What does everyone want to do about drinks? Last year we rounded up the cost to cover drinks. Do the same again?

Here are the details from last year and we could do a similar thing this time around?


Once everyone has made their meal choices - starters and main course, and after vegetables, desserts, coffees and drinks are added, we are looking at either £50 or £55 per person dependent on food choices. Those without starters or less expensive food options would be either £45 or £50.

This allows for starter, main course and veg; desserts and coffee as preferred on the night and one bottle of wine per person. It also includes the tip. I'll talk to V de'E to discuss a beer option for the non-wine drinkers.

So basically it's fixed price, dictated by food choices. £45, £50 or £55.

Thoughts?...
