Forgot to say that my trip is all sorted out now too. My clashing event is still too close to allow a normal Monday UK departure with the convoy, so I will leave on a Tunnel on Tues 3rd Sep and stop over in Langres en-route, meeting up in Grindelwald on Weds with you lot. A change of hotel for me this year as I will try the Tschuggen with its parking, just up the road from the K&P etc. I leave Sun 8th for a dash home via Spa to meet up with some friends. Looking forward to it.

And for Heaven's sake and for the sanity of the entire Planet, please, please, please make the poxy sun shine this year eh!!
