have just spoken with smiler, her and ant are at the mo in the field at 'the ranch' making a burning sacrifice so that the weather is good tomorrow.

although the forecast says it's going to be shite tonight, it will be fine for us tomorrow, chilly but fine :roll:

don't forget, meet at exeter services at 8, leaving at 830.

i would suggest 2 different groups going up but i guess we can sort it out in the morning.
