I suggest that we camp right next to the best brewery in the country.

Bah, another AR practically in France. Suppose I'll still be there.

Excellent
+1 (but not that Hovis bit :-D). Might make a few days of it either side of the rideout as been wanting to visit Holkham Hall and beach for a couple of years having read an article in Ride magazine. Good choice :smt023

You do know Holkham Beach is a nudist beach, don't you? I was thinking of arranging a trip there for the more enlightened orgers.

A507 is the Alps road.

You're not planning your overtakes and corners right then.

It's a wonderful road that seperates the men from the boys when you ride it fast

This does all very much depend on where exactly the campsite will be. East Anglia is quite a large expanse of land taking in a few counties. I used to live in Flitwick, and my ex was on the North Norfolk coast at Mundesley - it would take me 2 hours to travel the 130 miles there. Both of us were in East Anglia.

The brewery is just up the road from me.
I'll be up for it. Maybe no the over night though as our next little one is due to arrive in the next few weeks and two kids under two would be hard to leave behind (I know, soppy git!)
