"If you drink alcohol after you've taken sea sickness pills they stop working, I found this out on a very rough sea crossing once"

What happens is you drink the booze, then take the pills?

Roll on the 17th!

Thumbs up

Afternoon guys'n'gals...

Its getting close now...

For those heading down with me I will be calling you this afternoon to discuss various matters.

With regard to mobile numbers I will have a list collated in due course...again, where appropriate I will forward certain numbers to certain attendees

As far as meeting up....yup...again I plan to discuss this...there are obviously a few of us heading south via either M6/M5 or M1/M42/M6/M5...or whatever the damn route is

Again I will discuss this in a little while...

Rum*

P.S. Don't forget to pack your tooth brush!!

Sorry didn't get hold of everyone...I will try and speak during the weekend...

Surfice to say I think the plan is to try and get to Plymouth for 10.30 (gives us loads of time to relax...and also time in case of any motorway hold ups/weather problems)...

There will be 5 cars heading down from up north...and 2 (well, hopefully 3 )....heading across from...well other places

Obviously Pete is heading down on Monday eve and will hopefully be with us Tuesday morning prior to the coffee getting cold!!

Timo is going to join us on Wednesday with 2 cars...and Theo is coming down with his signwritten black beast the same day

On top of this there are various other locals from the bbs flying in and either staying at the same hotel...or locally in their passion pads (sorry innocent little flats above some dodgy pub in Lloret ...Rich )...

This time in 7 daysI'll be getting seriously silly.....I think thats something called an OXO Moron or something...

Have a GREAT weekend...I know I will....cos I'm off to spend money in Nottingham!!

I'm taking it sedately through France (no puns about the speed of the car - its the driver ) and will be there on Tuesday to join the fun.

Tom, any joy on the mobile number list so I can track down you lot from my pad down the coast....

Hi Guys

I am travelling down with Pete from Calais on Monday in My WRX.

Is there a list of all the people going to Cat either from Calais or Santandar, it would be nice to know some names and cars and or mobile no's before we get there.

Thanks
Gaz + Pete Bone (co-driver) Silver WRX.

I'm with the Santander crowd. Pete's number is known by some of the crowd and we would feel lonely without him

You will spot my car and Sliders by the the insignia in the rear windows. Rum's may be a little less conspicuous
