Nick, it's alright for some, enjoy the warmth.

It isn't a two-wheel friendly forecast for tomorrow so we'll probably be in the car. We have 110 miles to travel to Solihull and fog/mist with a high of 2 or 3 degrees doesn't seem very appealing.

Have heater and fab tunes, will travel :D....

A bit of local drama this morning, a water main has burst right outside our house and the road is flooded. The police have stopped all traffic until the burst is stopped and the road is treated because of black ice. We can't go anywhere until they reopen the road :shock:....

If we can't get down to Solihull in time for the meet please accept our apologies.

We're not going to be able to set off in time :headbang:..Tony, a snorkel might come in handy :D....

Before they closed the road a motorcyclist and a cyclist had both come off on the black ice. Thankfully both were uninjured. The annoying thing is I reported the burst to both the police and Yorkshire Water at 6.45am and it wasn't until half an hour later someone turned up to look at it. Not exactly a rapid response.

We're quite prepared to travel down to Solihull on Saturday and hold a New Years Eve 'Cabin Fever Part Two' if there's enough interest. We'll see what the response is.

Ah!!! I thought it was a bit devoid of people. We've had breakfast and so we'll hang around for s bit before heading south.
