At 8.30a.m. on Sunday, we will be having the drivers briefing in the Little Chef. That briefing will mainly consist of a full English breakfast.
See you all there on Sunday, I'll be the one with the radio and probably a clipboard Going to be a warm day, so bring plenty of drinks if you are going to be on-site.
If you are going to tune in via ScoobyNet, then you'll be alright and can have a cold beer, although at 8.30am, may be a bit early for some.
If you can't remember where to pledge some cash for charity, have a look

Watty, I can almost sense the holy silence as Simon works his way through
>>That briefing will mainly consist of a full English breakfast.
LOL
Good luck, and I'll be online at 8:30 (admittedly 9:30 over here )

Rebecca, you disappoint me ...
Simon has calculated this thing for months now...
He knows *exactly* how many calories it is gonna take him to have the optimal CoG, roll-centre, and suspension droop to make the world record.

BTW, just wondering if my 433 posts yesterday was a world record?
