Hi Adam any chance I can call round tomorrow (Friday) night to collect
and if that's okay where.  I am off to Bobby's at 7ish so I can call
into yours a little after if that would be okay?  I know you live the
other side of the race course but don't remeber where exactly, I can't
seem to find the link to the street map thing you did.
