Not me LOL

But then Plod never does, which is worrying when you go past, maybe pulling in the clutch and coasting would help until past them :D

The one thing the barn doesn't have is a letterbox.(i.e. post code)
This'll get you to the village hopefully, then turn left at the duckpond down Staithe Rd. NR13 3PS

I'll put an RS sticker at the roadside at the turn onto the track to the barn.

For Sat Navvers
Lat: 52.62501
Long: 1.55835

The final bit, Tunstall Rd from Halvergate is a dead end road where the locals aren't used to thro traffic. Beware pedestrians and farm machinery, and try not to upset our neighbours too much. Once at the site we have no neighbours and noise isn't a prob. :smt003

PM me for a mobby # in case you get lost in the depths of Norfolk if you wish.


Oh .... the ski jump ...

When you turn off the Acle straight (road from Acle to Gt Yarmouth) and go over the bridge, BE CAREFUL! The bridge does bite the unwary. That includes in a Car.

Tis an awesome launchpad though.
Can't find the link to `road safety` partnership locations atm . :smt017

You don't need to worry about beer - that's usually all deal with by Samray's Catering Service!

I'll have some thirst quenchers there when people arrive but we'll send the support vehicle on a booze cruise when we see what peeps require.
