I don't like early starts either, so all this week I've been trying to get up half an hour earlier.

Just a quick note to wish you well for tomorrow - although Chesham to Amersham is a new one for me! Hope you have a good time and raise plenty of money, and looking forward already to hearing how you get on.

Actually just noticed that Tangy is available after 1630hrs......

At that time of the day our timetable has us trying to get from High Barnet to Cockfosters if on schedule...... :?

After that time we are due to be out of phone range until almost 7pm....

Hopefully you will be able to contact us before we go Underground, unless of course we are ahead of schedule :P :D

If Tangy is reading this, would probably be best to try and meet at Finsbury Park when we switch from PIC to VIC, he can then try and get train numbers for us in case of a very quick cross platform (think he did the same for us in July.)
