OH, NO!!!

It's gonna be a laugh and no one can say "Oh, 2000 miles in an Atlas van, yeah I've done that"

OK so we have to get there, do the run and finish but hey! Nothing ventured nothing gained  :P

That's very true, I was just surprised that someone could match me in the rumbling trouser stakes  :P

ps don't tell bodders otherwise I may be looking for a new co-driver :X

Bodders, being a stout fellow like you and I, is probably well versed in the ancient art of dropping his guts - I don't think you'll be alone!

Is it traditional to have a huge curry the night before then, washed down with plenty of Bass.......?  Think that's a tradition I might not pass on to my co-driver  ;D

(Is the tone lowered far enough now?)

Bodders is your co-driver? I don't know which one to feel sorry for most. Pegs on stand-by?

It's usually a late night with plenty of beer and a curry then a really early start to the day. Co-driving these events with Dave usually sees us finishing a car on the morning of the run, it's not unknown for a trip to the Post Office to tax a car on route to the start. Dave likes to leave it to the last minute, I would prepare the car the year before if I had my way. Together we sit and drink beer, eat curry, fart and wonder why our T shirts have shrunk whilst I make lists of things we have forgotten, usually too late to do anything about it. Then we just get on and enjoy.

It works :-)

Perhaps a methane conversion might reduce fuel costs then?  :P
