Absolutely, though that BMW was very quick, std road tyres, a bit nervous coming out of clearways, but flew down the straight

Only 5 weeks to go now before the first round, and 4 weekend to get the last remaining items sorted. Who knows the car might even get washed in that time?

Great news when the list comes down like that to a handful of things that you would like to do but not necessarily HAVE to do.

Well done on the job so far

See you at the hotel - I presume Mike gave you details of the hotel I have booked for you ?

ps - it was the honeymoon suite you wanted wasnt it?
