Don't blame you... That straight looks rather long :o

Looking at the course map, I think the bigger lense will get a workout again this time.

Memory cards are emptied and battery is being charged tomorrow ready for it. :grin:

It's about an hour and forty five minutes from mine so I'll get there when I get there. The tent will be a great idea Russ. Thank the Gods that Smithy's are catering. Their mugs of tea and bacon butties may be the salvo I need if it's wet :)

The nerves/excitment is now realy kicking in! :) I hope everyone else are set and ready for the morning?
Whats the betting that the lack of gerry`s presence on here is because he`s been locked away creating an even bigger monster for unvailing tomorrow? :-D
