i certainly try if you want me too.
I understood the No Saturdays rule was because there's usually at least one line closed on Saturdays (usually the one I want to travel on!) so a FNC is impossible.

I've always been of the opinion that Guinness can set whatever rules they like, as they are the arbiters of the record. There's nothing stopping anyone here setting up a rival governing body.
