and of course large font always makes those not looking in a thread; come see what it says.....

Wideboy · 18-06-13, 08:30 AM

But it certainly got your attention.

Which I'm guessing was its purpose?

rictus01 · 18-06-13, 08:38 AM

only because I'm subscribed to the thread, so font size wasn't a factor, personally I think it's rude to shout and uncalled for myself, or was it a concession to us older folk who wear glasses ?

besides I was told in no uncertain terms the Lunch stop location was a secret, so although I can order food it would be pointless if I don't know where it'll be served.

Wideboy · 18-06-13, 08:52 AM

At a table.

I'm guessing the secret petrol station is also a problem as it might not be facing the correct way?

rictus01 · 18-06-13, 09:02 AM

without a location, floor/table or thrown against a wall are equally pointless.

Not sure what you normally do, but I've never per-ordered petrol and whatever way the station faces I've the ability to turn my bike around, you should try it, it's so much more convenient than waiting for roundabouts

It's working so far.

We've had a lot of late orders.

Wideboy · 18-06-13, 09:08 AM

I've just given a location. A table on a relatively level surface I would imagine. On the wall just seems silly to me

There will also be chairs, toilets, glasses, plates, cutlery, some grass outside and maybe a tree.

I've voiced no concern over the direction on the fuel station. Personally I don't need turn around as if the if pumps on the right or the left, I'm ambidextrous.

predictably useful as ever, I would expect nothing more.

Wideboy · 18-06-13, 09:23 AM

No I asked if it was a problem for you.

Oh and its my pleasure to help you

Rictus, you've already said you are not doing the ride, unlikely to turn up, know every inch of the area and will be making your own plans anyway so why the need to be so engaged and upset about a thread that holds very little interest for you?

Can't we just have a great AR without all the unnecessary drama?
