Hi I will probably meet up with Dandy in Dunedin somewhere in the afternoon amarko5 spose we would be down your way if we leave at 3 at about 5 depends when Dandy is ready I'm all for piss breaks as I seem to pee better than a dray horse these days must be an age thing. Arn't you the feller than made his downpipes shine you got me out for three hours with the metal polish and I got half of one pipe shinny only to turn it into a close approximation of me grannys copper kettle in five minutes flat and I only went up the village shop for milk Doh. Emmett I am easy what time I meet if Dandy gets off early I can manage down before midday but will need to know as I'm setting off from Tomatin and am quite happy to leave early if needed.

cheers Bob

Probably go down the A7, join the M6 at Junct 44, pick up the A6 again at J42 to Penrith, then the A66/A592 to Brotherswater.
PM me your phone no amarko......I'm guessing J42 around 4.30
