I've got a slight problem

Those lovely people at Derby Magistrates Court told me yesterday that I was disqualified from driving for 28 days! So unless I can find someone else to drive my car for me its going to miss out on the Big One

I'll just have to slum it in Mikee's car instead

Lizzy

Where are the rest of the Derby Scoobs???

Nobster,

Put me down on the Derby list.

PS: I'll need some directions to this new pub. Anyone got a post code? Also suggest you meet more than 15 minutes before departure. You'll need at least 30 mins if the Tour of Derbyshire is anything to go by. How about aiming for a 10:30am arrival for 11:15am departure. (Some will be late, probably me. ).

I posted this elsewhere but just in case you aint seen it...

Bonnie Prince is on the A50/A514 roundabout near Chellaston, you cannot miss it! - (even if you have to go around again to work out which exit to use)

http://www.streetmap.co.uk/streetmap...arrow=Y&zoom=5

As for time it is literally minutes from my house so even I shouldn't be late!

Kev S: We've not got the luxury of the Coffee as laid on by our excellent hosts on the Tour o'Derbyshire so it will hopefully not take long to get going

Thanks CharlieWhiskey,

Looking forward to one of your excellent routes again.

PS: Checked the map & there is a very good chance I'll be late. It's miles from my house.

PPS: Is someone posting a list of attendees? How many so far?

Kev S

Hi skoobidude.....great to have another Derby scoob joining the convoy - welcome aboard

Just turn up at the Bonny Prince at 11ish and we'll all go over to the main meet together by Charlie Whiskey's specially planned route! (which will be much more interesting than the A52! )

Gridlock Mikey should pick your name up from this thread and put it on the main list but you can post in the main thread as well if you like.

Did anyone decide on a time to start the magical mystery tour?

(Assuming everyone can find the Bonnie Prince )

Hoping to fit some 4-pots on Saturday - so make sure you're not in front of me on the way over to Notts!!

Nobster, see the Staffordshire Big One thread - I suggested that they could come down the A50 and join us s there were only a few of them.... and it looks like they're thinking of doing that - you might want to add them to the list

already posted this in the main 'big one' thread;

here's the weather forecast:

looks like there's no need for an umbrella, but you know what the BBC are like for forecasting the weather
