Pussies. It's easily non-stop from here to Le Mans - only 780 miles. The holiday inn in Ashford is nice enough - been there a couple of times on previous FF ventures.

Cheers,
Robin

Please let Mckean buy a 7 before FF8 :damnfunny

I'll remind him of this statement as he's pulling his legs out of the "unfortnuate smelting accident" that would be driving a 7 for that amount of time, with the heat from the transmission tunnel, down south and into France :mrgreen:

Lachie and I were thinking the same
Which ferry is everyone booked on?
