Andi, if you put it all in between [-code-] [/code] (remove the dashes on the first one), then you could have it all in a scrolling code box:

Code: Select all

PS. When are you doing this? You're going through both of my home towns of Portsmouth and Faversham, so I will obviously come and see you through those areas

Have you actually measured out the route? I reckon it would be at least 4000 miles and would take a lot longer than 35 days.

That sounds like a plan, of course you are welcome to stay in Worthing if your route brings you there near the end of the day.

On some advice We have decided to Go Clockwise around So most of the winds will be with us at certain points.Also i Have an idea for the Soup Dragon family that they ride entire Brighton Promenade and onto Worthing with us stopping for some beers if they want.

a 5 day tour in a car will take place in febuary this year so anybody wishing to meet up for a beer close to the coast let us know.
