It is annoying when 'outsiders' mess up your thread isn't it?

Neil- you can only do that in 45 mins if there is no one else on the road. At that time of day you need to be allowing a lot more 60-75 mins to cover eventualities.

Thanks Paul - although I would have thought WA1 would have been central Warrington. Did you miss out a digit?

Gary, do you have something constructive to add?

Gareth, I wasn't even considering the A54. If I'm coming via Buxton, then it has simply GOT to be The Cat & Fiddle!

I'll aim to get to your place between 8.30 and 8.45am. With a reasonable run that should get us to Knutsford Services by 9.45. Hopefully that will allow us time for a quick coffee and 75 minutes to the ferry, which will take the pressure off Dave, OK?

Theres only two houses and Twemlow Hall and a dog there but as my name is Twemlow it does have some personal significance.

All avoiding me eh!!!


Will try again mid week unless I am sectioned and unavoidably detained- which is quite possible at the moment. Had to resist the temptation to stop and maim some guy who pulled out on me this afternoon, and I figure its just a matter of time before I do.


Well I hope youre all having a great time this evening. Thank for the vid clip Nobs- made me laff. Have you got their address?

Hi Gareth,

Ring Neil as soon as you wake as he'll still be fast asleep- probably in someone elses room- snoring.
