We're going to France on Monday for a couple of weeks. Sort of packing at the moment. There's piles of bits all over the place. It'll get sorted tomorrow and once that's done I'll start sorting the stuff for Sunday. Must remember the bike (which is a different bike to the one going to France - we're calling in here on the way to Eurotunnel so I can swap bikes)
It'll all be fine through and in 24 hours time we should be at HPP; just hoping we'll be able to get though the code number on the gate (I think I read somewhere it was coded).

Ordered some stuff off Planet X, cap to stop sweat running in my eyes, lost my old one and some more gels, had fewer than I thought. Feckers promised to ship it for Wednesday delivery. Ready for collection by Royal Mail tonight, so won't be here before I set off tomorrow PM. Useless, have to nip across town to the bike shop after I leave work now.
I'd blame those postie's. I should be going near the planet x shop in sheffield in about 4 hours if you need anything urgent shout up and if I can I will. There should be a few things at the exbo saturday and know planet x will have a presence there so might be worth while phoneing them now and asking if they can pass it over.
Good luck everyone - supporters and racers alike! Will be thinking of you all on Sunday - have a fantastic weekend! Hopefully I'll be able to make it up there next year!

You've got my mobile number, haven't you? You'll be fine.
the important bit for me is my pillow
Bike. Mustn't forget the bike.
She's going to pay this weekend I tell you
are you going to sabotage my bike when you get out of the water
Good luck for Sunday you amazing bunch. And finish it for me too please!
See you all in Nottingham.
Safe journeys everyone. Here's hoping the roads aren't going to be too awful with all this 'get away' traffic that's expected this weekend!

We are at campsite. Usual area but nearer entrance to section by a clump of trees surrounding water tap. The opposite side already has tents pitched.
