bought a mobile holder for the car and took my car for a spin to test it out and there's loads of vibration of the holder. I've ordered a different design and this one looks spot on. Should get it before we leave.

I have my phone built into the dash, but I've also got a holder for recording stuff out the window as well.

I've been done for a couple of weeks to.

I say that, but I'm sure I'll realise I've forgotten something when I get there!

That's good news then, at least it's sorted!

It's probably best if I meet you guys at Newport Pagnell services on the M1. MK16 8DS. That's about 30 miles away from me and saves you guys having to come off route.

There you go dude.

Got some possible bad news :(

I've been asked for a job interview on Thursday next week. It's through an agency, so I've asked if there is any possibility of them changing the date and am just waiting to hear back. If they can't then I'm gonna have to bail on the trip guys, as I can't turn it down as it's a big payrise from my current job. I know if I don't accept the interview I'll kick myself for ages.

I'll let you all know.

Had no joy on the job hunt for months, then this comes up when I'm going away, typical.

There is 95ron, 98ron premium, 98ron super, 100ron super in almost every European petrol station. ;)
