Lots of talk with Phil and Petter whilst setting the car up for tomorrow - lots of unwanted intrusive speccies turned up as it had leaked out on rally forums that he was testing in S Wales. Which is part of the problem with anything surrounding the event these days Jerry - the power-craze to control the spectators.

Which is part of the problem with anything surrounding the event these days Jerry - the power-craze to control the spectators. Sort of agree with you Mike, but it's to do with insurance/liability/being sued/H&S stuff as you well know It's the same in most other walks of life now a days, nothing special about rallying Anyway, not been on much. Started Friday at 05.00 until late for 4 days, then on Monday night after testing, straight up to Myherin, spent the night in the car ready for recce on Myherin yesterday. Back last night and off to recce for shakedown at Margam Park today. Early finish as I need to be up at 02.30 tomorrow to get back to Margam for Shakedown, then straight off again to Myherin to sleep for the night ready for Myherin stage on Friday. Leaving Myherin and going through Beulah ;D down to Llandovery for fish and chips before making our way onto Epynt for Halfway stages - another night in the car - on Saturday. Then back home, and up early for an early start on Sunday for Rheola. They wanted me back on Monday and Tuesday for testing, but I said no as I'm off next Thursday for 4 days at our last round of the MSA BCCC at Driffield, west Yorkshire. Back late Sunday night

Know how you feel Guvs, Andy was invited out this afternoon for a ride out but after standing watching Andrews rugby this morning he decided it looked much nicer outside than it felt! Hope you've defrosted now ;D
