Now that sounds nice and leisurely - without doubt all the rest of us stragglers are seriously envious! I keep resisting the temptation to rip this cast off!

Well chaps the hotel Folkestone, Tunnel and B&B in Spa is paid for and I cant cancel. So it looks like I shall be joining you rather than waste the weekend off. Will decide tomorrow which vehicle. I take it changing vehicle details with tunnel company is not a drama?

I'll bring my helmet (no its not purple) in case I get a 'cabby'

Jevvy many thanks for the kind offer. Let's see what develops........................

If you don't mind slumming it, I'll take you for a ride in a Vauxhall.

In addition to Rephlex's advice, ensure you have the credit card you booked with.

There will be plenty of opportunities for passenger rides at the track.

Very nice to be back behind the wheel of a 964 - properly setup too now thanks to James, massive difference

Just needs about 150 more bhp

Friday morning at 9am the cast comes off - can't sooner as had to give it 10 days to heal...
So I'll know on the day if I can drive my car for the first time in a year and whether I'll be dashing for the border to catch a later train!

Probably becase it's got a faster bonnet now

See you Friday

Last Day issue with my exhaust 'Oulton Noisy issue' just dropped my exhaust replacement off in a pub near GT One for fitting, presume after opening time for collection tomorrow at 18.00 - cutting it fine for Spa like everyone else!
