Its gonna be tight, this will all be done at legal speed limits. And leads me to the question how accurate is Google Maps?

I failed to mention i broke down twice, and the second breakdown resulted in a £150 tow home.
(this is googlemaps fault as it sent me down the A429, Which got heavily flooded on that day)
