Northhampton to Harrogate is probo about 2.5Hrs at say 70 - 80.

I'll be popping into Phils Thursady night to say Hello to everyone & finalise which route people want to take :)


The plan is to leave Philips @ 10.30am.

Quick question - can you get a mobile signal up there? (seriously - just need to know)

Will I get nose bleeds? (not serious)

Do you all wear kilts?

Will I really have to brave the Loch in my pants each morning?

Not sure where staying just yet, I need to work out how far I can get in one evening. I might aim for a travelodge or something in the Harrogate area, in order to link up with the convoy heading from PJMT's place on friday....
Gav - just seen your post - try the Wellington Inn at Darley: http://www.wellington-inn.co.uk/ which is about five minutes away - let me know if you need any help finding anywhere :-)

Are you going to bring a banger and some booze and join us for a BBQ on the Thursday evening? If so, let me know and I'll pm you directions :-)

Ok, here's the plan as I understand it :lol:

The following people are crashing at mine:

- Mark (912UK) & Jo
- Ian & Charlotte
- Will & Mrs. Brown
- Tom (Bootsy)
- Mike Usiskin

I'm presuming the following are staying at a B&B locally?
- Andy (Lightweight_911)?
- Paul (Ferryman)
- Barry (media star)
- Mr. Moss (in a 993? :lol:)
anyone else?

The following people are joining in for a BBQ and a few drinks :drunken: :wink: :lol: :drunken:

- James (Hot66) & Jo
- Dave (Basildon Bond) & Vicki
- Stuart (TC) & Nicki
- Tony (Scrumpyjack +1?)
- Ian & Charlotte
- Mark & Jo
- Mike & Hayley (surprise potential new DDK'ers :wink:)
- Will & Mrs. Brown
- Paul (Ferryman)
- Mr. Moss (in a 993? :lol:)
- Barry (media star)
- Mike Usiskin
- Tom (Bootsy)

Any of the others who are on the list going to Scotland who would like to join in for some dinner, booze and chat?
- Susan?
- Gav P?
- Andy (Lightweight_911)?
- Bert (Bertroex)?
- Richard & Jane (targa/red)?
- Eddie & Margret (eddieday?)
- Stephen (defianty)

....anyone else? :-)

I plan on lighting the BBQ around 6:30pm - you're welcome to turn up earlier but I have got a meeting at the house until about 6:00pm.

If you could all bring a bit of something for the BBQ I'd be most grateful - plus something to keep you liquid

Any problems - my mobile number is on the list in the Members Section :-)

Look forward to seeing you all
