    I think I might be taking on a bit much. Somehow in the middle of all that I've got to find time to collect my parents from Heathrow at rush hour later on today!

      It will of course be rush hour on the Friday before a Bank Holiday weekend too so that could be fun! No doubt my train home out of London tonight will be a nightmare.

        Well, I didn't want to over egg it, but I shall be having haddock and chips, or maybe a steak and kidney pie (haven't made my mind up yet), mushy peas, sliced bread and butter, and a pot of tea at my chip shop in Doncaster. Hopefully I can find a parking place out front. Maybe I'll get someone to stuff the van there to be moved on my arrival, just to make sure.
        Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

          I shall be doing similar this evening but at the best chippy in England according to a recent vote by the Fish Fryers association.
          I am not qualified to give the above advice!

          Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

            LB - Friday rushour matey at HRX - oh dear, oh dear, oh dear... I suggest a quick look at:

            http://www.theaa.com/travelwatch/travel_news.jsp

            before you go!!

            My wife is always getting her parents over on bank holiday - it's often quicker staying at the Marriot, Heathrow in anticipation.

            Michelin starred restaurant? Could you tell me which one tomorrow (to avoid the stalking potential)?

            Thanks btw for the restaurant recommendations for Copenhagen - will keep you posted on them next week as we are no confirmed to go (business class to delay any divorce proceedings)

                Chavmobile eh? So what are we talking here? First three guesses:
                • Subaru Impreza Turbo
                • Mitsubishi Evo
                • Honda Civic Type-R

                    Another impressive weekend. Good work - hope it goes well. Have done afternoon tea at The Ritz and it was most satisfactory.

                      Do you have to book for tea at the Ritz?
