I've only got the cream stuff. I'm not sure that'd be very effective unless the nasty assailant happens to accept the offer of a massage

Its a blooming long way that 6Hrs 3 Mins without factoring in fuel stops and the odd break. How early are you going to have to leave.

The roads from Sheffield to Spalding are not very inspiring or fun you pretty much past my house though lol.
any deviation from that route to some of the very nice local road will just add loads more time and a massive amount of zigzaging.

Fractionally longer in distance and a bit longer in time is...

But Sheffield to cambridge is pretty aswome.

Thanks for the delightful derails lads :P


And Ralph I wasn't getting at anyone in particular so please don't think I was pointing the finger! Enough said about my welfare now though eh? I get the gist

Maybe what G has said about people accompanying me in sections could be interesting...
