Cool, I would prefer not to try and keep up with the others on the motorway... Plus A-roads will be more fun

I suppose as maybe the least *cough* experienced*cough* present I feel I must conform to a stereotype in an effort to keep the planets aligned and the universe intact...

Shall we all try to get there at the same time so we can save a bit of cash ?

Why don't the L plate 125 crue set off a bit earlier so we can all come at the same time ?

It's only a couple of streets away - nobody's done any work this afternoon, too busy gawping out of the window. Lots of smoke and ash, and the little back office I work in (Kate's seen it) really stinks. If our office boasted such a thing as a Health & Safety rep we'd all have gone home an hour ago!

That's going to make the evening go alot quicker.

How about we all agree what time we should get to Duxford then work out what time the 125's should set out so we roughly arrive at the same time ?

I text Doug today asking him along so you never know he may come at the same time.

More later

Finish
My new helmet has had it's one and only coat of Supagard Aftercare Paintseal Cream and then two coats of Harly Wax (100% Carnuba) followed by 2 coats of Autoglym Super Resin Polish.

Autoglym Super Resin is quite easily the best finishing polish out there.

I've used pretty much everything and it this stuff is easily the best.

Yes I have a life.

If those riding in the 125 group make themselves known and an arival time is agreed we can elect somebody the responsibility of taking the balme when we are late...

I don't mind planing a route but don't have a wealth if experience in these matters so it could be an experince for anyone taking my directions

I think it's a case of going straight up the A10 and turn right at some point, i looked a few weeks ago. Seems simple enough. A good meeting place could me my place as it doesn't take long to reach stamford Hill and get on the A10.

Bill - what's the planned meet up time in duxford?

I've never understood why they don't make cat's tablets more appealing for cats to eat. OK, some cats let you pop the tablet in and they dutifully swallow - but some definitely don't! They get to know the signs - fetching the towel to wrap them in etc, and go and hide for half a day.

As soon as any of my animals has started to cost more than food and the odd one-off thing then it's been the chop.

time
How does 11.00 sound ? Don't let me dictate it but it would give us plenty of time to all get up there and do the entire tour ?

What does everyone think ?

I'll go with the majority.....for once.

Hey Genie

My Cat needs antibiotics and steroids daily, and chemotherapy every other day. Just crush em up between two spoons and add em to a bit of food, job done painlessley, and the cat hasnt got a clue.

Sorry to hear about the kitty, hope it all goes well. Mine had to have a leg off due to bone cancer, but it copes ok they are amazingly tough, they just act soft for our benefit!

On another topic, surely the BNP would frown on the idea of buffing another mans helmet. Gays are in the same boat as coloureds in their tiny retarded minds.

cheers for your good wishes - i've seen the pics of your cat in the pets thread, he's lovely i'm sure wee kitty will cope just fine, she's a tough little thing - spent her early years in a squat before she came to me. i'm more worried about how we'll cope
