I will be in at circa 03:30 Saturday night/Sunday morning.
Need to leave at 07:30 to get me there for 10AM. It is also father's day and need to go and see my dad and Julies dad, I have to be in Kilmarnock for 18:30 for a rehearsal.
So to realistically get me to Kilmarnock for 6:30 (via the house to get my stuff) I would need to leave Alford at 14:30 - no later which would give me a grand total of about 4 hours for £40 worth of fuel and 6 hours driving (plus stress). Getting the Prodrive Spring Kit Fitted on Friday so that is more cash - arghh!!
I really want to go - it just seems totally impractical!!
The usual - everything happens at once.

Actually...i was naughty today and picked it up from storage and brought it back to the house....all in hope that the insurance would come through...
Had a wee play with the Anti-lag and brought the smiles back to my face.
Fingers crossed i get to use the car this weekend.
