Organised with my essex mate Chad to meet at the Dartford gates at 7:30, I was a bit early so enjoyed the fresh smell of diesel and car fumes :?

Chad arrived shortly after and think secretely he would of also rather been snuggling up in the safe warm comfort of his bed and missus but duty calls :D

I would of taken photo's of our first coffe stop at Fleet services but could not get my hands to work for a while :shock: So the camera only came out at the Countess services after a nice hot coffee. What a great turnout and thanks to everyone who managed to make it.
