I tried Dressage a few times but couldn't get the Mare to go diagonal, so we aimed at the Fence, jumped it and went for a canter through the woods near Salisbury Plain!!
umm, whereabouts is the Holly Bush? if I can find it on Multimap I'll be fine then we can get dirty . (No comments Ste .. please!!)

From the directions it's when you turn onto the via gellia it's about 2 or 3 miles up that road, don't know what it's classed as,
or we can meet at the excavator pub at ambergate would that be easier?

If sugar is travelling back from Warwickshire couldn't you meet her here and convoy back up with her... Seems the sensible option to me

Hi Andrea
Whereabouts in Warwickshire are you coming from?
as most roads to Derby go past me here in Solihull it's not too hard to organise something!
I haven't got a Car-Full now but I thought the Mrs & Kids were going to want to come!
(At least I'm Honest!lol)
Aah Shame Daz. .... I was going to drive Your Fronty! lol

No Worries,
Looking at the route you use, I'm pretty sure we can cut that distance down for you as well! Maybe Meet at Alcester and come up another way to the M1 !!
Doesn't bother me Andrea, We're only on a Recce to get Dirty .. The Cars before anyone comments!!
