You start by getting fairly sensible wife in first place.

so is that 2 cars for the treasure hunt and the meet then? and what are treasure hunt teams to be called
It's only one car at the moment but could be 2 if my mate gets Sunday off work and joins us, will find out later today.

Haven't come up with name yet . Maybe I should ask the sensible wife to come up with one the tell her it's rubbish and come up with another one myself.

she is I suppose mostly sensible (and much brighter than me) but the subjects she chooses to be sensible about are maybe not what I might consider sensible

Hi Guys and Gals,

I fully intend to join you night owls for a beer at Stoneleigh on saturday evening, I'll be easy to spot, I'll be in Sainsburys fancy dress, after completing my shift at the local fuel station,(which is open until 10.30 should anyone feel the need for fuel??)
Really looking forward to blowing the froth of a couple and meeting some of you nice people!!

Best Regards,
Steve
