I did find somewhere for the 3rd night but we can't go, apparently they've already heard you as you leave Milton Keynes,

Sounds a nice place, but dare I even ring up, this is what they say about themselves

Island Meadow is a small, quiet park on the banks of the River Alne. This peaceful, well sheltered island retreat offers it's visitors an ideal touring centre.

The quiet one (which Simon also found, not me  :) ) is also fully booked, right the way through till the end of Auust, so gone with your other suggestion http://www.stratfordtouringpark.com So we are all fully booked up with places to stay, just need to get a list of hotels JIC

Well things are progressing nicely, camp sites booked, I'll try to modify the routes later tonight with the new stops, If I can otherwise, it might have to be Simon, but I know he is very busy this weekend. I have also signed up something called Google Latitude Badge so you will be able to follow our progress. I'll leave it switched on for the weekend so you can all stalk me & then I'll put it back on for the trip.

So you've left your phone behind today then...
Or you haven't gone anywhere
Or this google thing is still a little flaky

As you haven't moved for over 12 hours....

Is someone bringing a jerry can of fuel? Just in case someone (steve) runs out?

What time did we all agree on meeting at the first place?

Food :- local ale houses, cafes,  (it makes travelling a little lighter although a little more expensive)
Steve usually had his own Jerry can, but his buggy was a LOT more fuel efficient, anyway, I think I will need to bring a jerry can after the poor MPG I've been getting.
We agreed on 11:00  (you are coming to mine for 9:00)

As you are aware from Alan, I have other issues that may mean I can't make it but it is looking Like I can at the moment to fingers crossed.

I'm not around this week, I'm still working in Godalming (until Wednesday evening).  I'll dig them out and leave them with Jasia so that if you should pop over then she will know where they are.

This does mean that I'm hoping that my buggy starts without issues on Thursday as I've had no prep time....  But I will be filling up the fuel tanks later today and fastening the camera mount onto it somewhere.....

I will be bringing a petrol can (just in case) not expecting to run out (What are you trying to say Danny).
Is the place we are meeting the same place where we finished last year?
I will also have a spare tyre. I am debating on leaving the roof box on as it makes life easier. Or take out the spare seat and run like I did last year (Better option I think).
Changed wheel bearings today, took it out for a run and seems to be going well. Just hope it stays that way.
What else do you need me to bring, If Alan is bringing the cooker, and we are eating out on the evening?
