Thanks for holding the fort Ste, I've been away this evening at a committee meeting.

To clarify, what Ste has already said, I would like to aim for a 10:00am start from Corwen (10 miles west of Llangollen) and we'll end up in Chirk for about 18:00

During that time you will have drive a little under 40 miles, 75% of which will have been unsurface roads (green lanes). You will have also stopped for a few coffee breaks and taken the opportunity to take lots of photos.

In a couple of weeks time I'll be asking for your email addresses to email out to you a document that should cover most of your questions.

At the moment, there are no free places as both days are fully booked, even with Ste volunteering as a second group leader on the Sunday (Cheers bud).

If anyone does have to drop out, that place will be offered to the next "newbie" based on the first come, first served principle (who that is I don't know as I haven't worked it out yet).

So far, of the 9 of you who have shown an interest in this trip, I have only received 7 confirmations by PM as requested - those 7 should now have received a "booklet" that I hope you found useful.

The 2 who have not yet responded have been PM'd and if a positive response is not received by the end of this Friday, their space will be forfeit and offered to the next in line.

Well, unfortunately, someone has had to pull out.

That leave a place to be filled by one of the reseves, and if I have worked it out correctly, of the "newbies" (sorry Si and Ian), "Gypsyroadhog" is next in line (followed by bobbinsjob if the last space becomes available)

I'll PM gypsyroadhog...
