depends on the size of the run, if its gonna be similar to last year then a pub would be fine, if were talking loads of cars maybe choices would be better

im fine, pub grub would be OK, ideally a location where the accomodation is within staggering distance of the pub. i like the idea of a themed halloween pub if possible Paul..

I can't remember what time we were at the pub
I do remember we had some great food
I didn't get home too late so we couldn't have been there later then 9 I'd say. We didn't stay in the pub to last orders that's for sure

Hi all
Is there going to be a limit to how many cars take part?
Would you do different start times for groups?

I doubt we'll get that many, and as it's a night time run, one some challenging roads, it will be all in one group unless we have a massive take up. Last time there were around 20 cars and it worked well. Only lost a few.

Last place was good I agree. We'll see.
Also, people seem to have a habit of loosing their way on my runs?
The run this time will include the location for these shots:

Question is, do I make this a "you're in, you're in" run, or do I allow for get out routes?

That was my thinking to be honest.
What was it someone said on the last run... "I knew something was up because I saw braking going into a corner".
