Thumbs up Quality morning

Cheers Marv and Paul,

That run was great, excellent route plan. My friend Richard (Black STI slow group) enjoyed his first ever run as did my co driver.

I will post some of the photos soon and I will PM you when the film footage is uploaded onto my website. Probably later this week.

Oh and thanks for hanging back for me when I got stuck behind the micra who did 15mph in the middle of the road .

Quailty morning well done Marv / Paul

we even pitted in at Scoobyclinic for some urgent repair work on Marv's motor, poor old Kev,never gets a day's rest does he

Had a great time, 1st time in the passenger seat
Scooby Adz loved it, Chris's driving was excellent, it needed to be to keep up with Bruce / Scott, i did warn Chris before we set of not to get in front of those pair, never been sideways so many times in my life,
The tunnel was ace pity my camera couldn't focus as quick as Chris's car shot thru the tunnel, the pic were a bit blurry

Scott u r a tart BTW has Laura got any sisters ? whens the first date then ? poor girl, all she did all morning was bring u bloody toast,on the plus side, at least she know's what you will be wanting for brekkie in the morning then

And just how many times Scott, did you miss the turning to the FORD was it 2 or 3

Used up all the 128meg card in my camera,, so got sh!te loads of pic's will host them on photobucket as soon as and clicly a link, fooked if im posting 450 odd pic's

Top run, and we managed to get through the day with no casualtys.

Her name is Loran, and if the mrs is with me on the next run we will leave that bit out otherwise i'll deny everything

Bloody car wasn't running it's best and decided it wasn't going to tick over when stopping, so had to keep nailing it in first and shot past the ford............twice.Thats my excuse and i'm sticking to it. On the plus side didn't get any brake fade all day.

Looks like you went through wetton mill tunnel......I went through there on saturday, went right down to the bottom and sped through the ford and soaked a load of people and dogs!!

Where abouts is the ford you went through on the pics. It's not Tissington Ford is it?? I don't recognise it.

Default Couldn't make it - Any Chance of Route plan

Hi guys,

Sounds and looks like you had a wicked time this year. I made the last one but unfortunately couldn't make it this year :-(

Anyway, I'm up that way next weekend, and I was just wondering whether anyone had an eletronic version of the route plan (and map if possible!) so that I can trace your steps at a more leisurely rate with the missus and kid in tow?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you can help, mail me at flat_eric_uk@hotmail.com, or post a PM on here, or just post the directions straight into this thread.

thanks
Paul
