Yeah probably would get it done in a day I didn't spend half the day answering the phone to sales calls, they usually start the call by saying "I not trying to sell you anything" yeah right :laugh:

Down the A1 then 19. To be honest I put the postcode into my Sat Nav and just follow it. It’s a bit of a Git and always heads down the A1 first then crosses over but when I come back it goes 19 all the way. It may be easier if we meet down there as other than the Washington services I cant guarantee a rout or time.

No mate, the usual things are items for recovery but I carry tow straps, waffle boards etc and to be honest Smoggy and his "monster truck" are more than capable of recovering Jimnys.
