Bank Hoilday Competition

[MeMe]

Just for a bit of fun, who can guess how long it will take me to drive my usual 136 miles from Manchester to Abersoch this coming Friday amongst the maddening crowd of similar weekend getawayers !

I'll be leaving the house at 1600 on the dot. Navigating the M60/M62/M60/M53/A55/A499.

I'll be using my TomTom Go to assist with road works, delays and the fastest route. I'll be putting my foot down whenever possible and will endevour to make door to door without stopping.

Closest one to the exact time detailed on my "on board trip meter" will win........................

A bottle of whiskey / gin / brandy - whatever tipple takes your fancy and a bottle of Perfume (for the girls) or Aftershave (for the boys). Possibly both !

The winner will be announced on Tuesday 3rd May before 10:00 with their prize despatched the same day.

Two or more identical times MAY result in multiple prizes however, more than likely, the first correct posting will win - Good Luck.

3 Hours and 45 Mins

But if it rains and the forcast is bad for the bank hols then knock off half an hour

Hope the sun shines over the Llynn as well as the Isle of Man

Any plans for a trip to the IOM this year ?

[Phil Davies]

Put me in for 3hrs 2mins.

I should warn you that I have taken the liberty of informing the Chief Constable of North Wales, Richard Brunstrom, of your impending arrival and he has pledged to double the laser speed trap count on the A55 and surrounding rat-runs. Officers will be primed to apprehend all black Audi A4's driven by shell-suit clad scousers. Should keep 'em busy all evening, then.

..........however, you never know. The one thing for sure, if we do you'll know about it ; Dave, where do we stay - get fuel - charts - landing - pub - food - launch/recover - etc etc.

[fred bolton]

2 Hours 28 Minutes that's if you can get past me and you'll need more than TOM TOM to do that. Out.

Hadn’t realised that shell-suits allow you to cut up your fellow motorist, use the wrong side of the motorway and get of virtually Scot free if caught by De Flic, so 2.20Hr if clad in shell and 1.20Hr if it is stripy shell Des

[Graham H]

2hrs 45 mins and take your next 3 points for a grand

[Louise]

3 hours 12 minutes and 47 seconds.

[MeMe]

Fred - yea right, I've seen your driving style - the only thing that wont pass you will be the person sitting in the back seat. 16

[Louise]

I'd just like to point out that the above post by MeMe is directed at Graham, not me! I never break the speed limit and have never had so much as a parking ticket let alone points on my licence or a fine!

[Neal]

[Tim M]

3 hours.

[Alan]

So I reckon, 3hrs 45mins cos you'll get stuck in traffic/pulled over by the traffic cops/need a pee or similar!

[MeMe]

..thus far. That makes pretty good odd for wining a bottle of scotch and £50 worth of perfume. Obviously we have a lot of odourless tea totalers on the forum.
