Are we meeting up at Drivers early doors on Saturday for the drive through to Knockhill

I think we normally meet at 07:30am to get there for the drivers brief

I'm up for meeting at Drivers Ken
Do we not need to be there at 8am though? 7.30am is cutting it a bit fine to be there for 8, even on empty Saturday morning roads. AA route planner says about 1 hour, so I'd suggest meeting at Drivers at 7am, then swinging by Old Inns for anyone who wants to meet there at 7.15, then off to Knockhill.
I'll start a list
Drivers, 7am
ExigeKen
Dezzy & Heds
Old Inns, 7.15am

I've not had the pack through from John yet, so I don't know what time we've to be there, but it's usually one hour before the trackday starts. I think we often underestimate how long it takes to get to KH. AA routefinder says 1 hour from Charing Cross, but I'm happy to be corrected if you think it's quicker
Plus, when we meet at X o'clock, we always leave at X o'clock plus 10mins after waiting on the latecomers and gabbing to each other, so I always err on the earlier side of things

I blame the guys on those fancy gooseberry things trying to connect to internet for traffic reports - eh Ken?

Clare has just gone back down to her flat in Edinburgh, but would like to come to KH on Saturday.
Is there anybody with a spare seat that would be able to pick her up there by the Meadows on Saturday morning?
Cheers

Thanks Jamie, if you could manage that then much appreciated.
Must warn you though, she is rather partial to S/C Honda Elises.

I spoke to John and we are to be there for 8:00 for a 08:35am briefing.
Does that mean a 07:15am meeting at Drivers works with a sharp get away instead of standing around for ever as usual

07:25am at Old Inn
