Well the votes are in and it is unanimous,Williams can pick a B&B. Our Air B&B in Peebles is a lovely big house, set in rolling hillside with a fantastic host. the challenge has been well and truly laid down for Edwards and Gavatron.
Gavatron had arrived early and of course had ‘bagsied’ the double bed with en-suite and walk in wardrobe. Edwards and Williams sucked up their general annoyance but vowed to get their own back the next day.
The route from J42 on the A1M was had little to worry about until Williams turned into the fuel worrier of the trip. Every trip one of the guys has to take on the role of ‘fuel worrier’ this is the individual that starts verbally worrying about the amount of fuel they have left when there really is not need to. Apparently it is Williams turn on this trip. Having only 40 miles of fuel left at the M6 junction of scotch Corner, Williams started to panic. His natural emotion to panic though soon became superseded to his natural aversion to spending money when they noticed that fuel was 1.50 per litre and so they decided to chance it and head off down the A66. A photo opportunity was taken by the local council on entering Scotland but we are going to have to wait for the letter to come through the post before we can request a copy of the photo.
Gavatron has been sent the challenge of finding tomorrows B&B, somewhere within a 300 mile radius of Fort William should do it. Edwards and Williams are not optimistic judging by some of the ‘how about this one’ questions we have been asked this evening.
Words like compact and Bijou have been quoted to describe some of the establishments Gavin is trying to get us into tomorrow, God help us we are going to end up in a complete sh*t hole tomorrow night

Tomorrow promised rain but we don’t care, we are not made of soap.
