Currently sat in Costa at B'ham, all checked in and keeping an eye out for Froggy & Pingu!
So jealous ... I am fighting my users over Project issues ... and I just had a request for a meeting Thursday morning ... yeah right, like that is gonna happen with my flight that same morning
I have a hire car. If I leave the missus back at the hotel, then I have room for 4 passengers..... (the missus draws the line at attending race briefings....)
my taxi charges are very reasonable, and are measured in beer tokens.
For more beer tokens we can drive bits of the route, including haria where a nice cafe sells a magnificent BLT + egg toasted sandwich

Are you talking about drinking or still running?
Running! I confidently predict the drinking will continue to Thursday
I am leaving on Thursday, be there early afternoon. Are you guys going to the parade?
I'm at Club La Santa anyway so I'll be floating about somewhere ...
*bounce* it's time, it's time! It's here
Let the stress and worry until everyone is safely home begin...no-one racing need worry, I will do enough of that for everyone.
Laters.

currently sat at work wondering when the flight of doom will fly overhead...
If my juvenile investigative journalism skills are correct (no Officer, it isn't stalking...) they're boarding now.
I'm not arriving on Thursday until after the parade has completed. Anyone else planning to register Friday morning?
We land late Thursday afternoon so trying to register that night otherwise it will be Friday morning.
Hope you all have safe journeys.Good racing
I'll see if I can follow the results / race online on Sunday
Matt, race is on Saturday. Lanzarote is special at that
Is there anyone intending to travel to LaSanta about 2/3pm on Thursday, if so im looking to scrounge/share a lift to register.
Im starting to get alll excited for you lot! have a safe journey!
Been thinking of you guys LOADS! Really wish I could be there to cheer you on. Safe travels and don't drink the bar dry on the first night
