Sorry Chaps.
Even though I said it was not possible I was still hoping that I'd be able to finnangle something, but all has failed.
Called out on an emergency run to Bristol Airport this afternoon, taking a bus from Gordano services through the lanes to the airport is not much fun.
And have to cover three jobs tomorrow.
I'll not be fit to walk down our garden path on Monday.
Have a bloodie good meet, plenty tongue loosening liquid and grand food.
Needless to say I am jealous.

Still on for tomorrow, will leave Dorset quiet early and make my way to Devon using the incredibly bad A35 to Honiton before heading towards Exeter.
