I'll meet you there Trev

[mark_sheepwash]

Can I make a suggestion that everyone going on the trip posts up their mobile numbers if you don't want to post on here then we can exchange on the train on way over just incase we get split up while driving - it's bound to happen lights change etc etc (I know hopefully we are going to use the two way radios but best to have a failsafe!)
