The weekend settled on is 15 to 17th doesn't look good for Morocco! Can you divorce and re-marry the weekend after?

Anyone who wants a hotel for the Thursday night we are booking up one. Details to follow. I will book the Hotel at the ring on Wednesday.

Bollox. I tried the divorce idea on her, but she was unseemly overjoyed at the prospect, so I figured I'd probably be better off tagging along on the Morocco thing.
Sorry guys me and Tris will have to miss this one. Hopefully we can make the later trip.
Have a great time

been a bit slack recently, I will work out figures next week, and make sure I have no work booked-if all is ok I shall book next week

What are the likely fuel figures needed

(I need to buy a set of 19" alloys/tyres before hand I think-otherwise I might become part of the scenery)
