Still debating me going Spooks.

I will be in at circa 03:30 Saturday night/Sunday morning.

Need to leave at 07:30 to get me there for 10AM. It is also father's day and need to go and see my dad and Julies dad, I have to be in Kilmarnock for 18:30 for a rehearsal.

So to realistically get me to Kilmarnock for 6:30 (via the house to get my stuff) I would need to leave Alford at 14:30 - no later which would give me a grand total of about 4 hours for £40 worth of fuel and 6 hours driving (plus stress). Getting the Prodrive Spring Kit Fitted on Friday so that is more cash - arghh!!

I really want to go - it just seems totally impractical!!

The usual - everything happens at once.

BTW, having to 'push on a bit' to make the Forfar meet sounds cool.... F.Y.I. I'm just new the scooby scene and am still at the stage where i'm learning to drive the car with out scaring myself $h!tle$$..... or do you never get over that??

Hi Johnny,

Sorry to hear that - just when you thought "back to the Scoob" after weeks away - bummer!!!

Nevermind - the wait makes it better - just like your honeymoon?!??!?

Actually...i was naughty today and picked it up from storage and brought it back to the house....all in hope that the insurance would come through...

Had a wee play with the Anti-lag and brought the smiles back to my face.
Fingers crossed i get to use the car this weekend.
