I'm now mulling over the idea of doing a 200 DIY to the pub, staying the night somewhere, then doing a 200 home on the Sunday, to save the A road dashes I usually end up doing when Essex bound. Not checked the Compasses availability yet, but I can't afford (got no work booked yet this term) £70 a night on my own, so has anyone already got a twin room there/elsewhere, and wanting to halve the cost? They can PM me or post here.
I`m coming along, there about about 8ish

Somehow I have persuaded the better half to come out for the evening. She's even met some of you before and still wants to come up. So Tom, +1 for dinner please,Al
Absolute chaos at Orlando airport after people panicked following a lithium battery exploding. I’ll be amazed if I get back to the UK before Sunday.
I'm still trying to make it happen, and possibly might even end up on Bikeabilityman's wheel (although more likely the reverse, as I'll be fresher) for a Girton/Cambridge/Duxford/Thaxted run to Littley Green, swift half, and sprint home again

I’ll be amazed if I get back to the UK before Sunday.My prophesy turned out correct. Instead of arriving at Heathrow on Saturday morning, the earliest flight gets me back on Sunday morning. All because an exploding lithium battery spooked some folk who ran through security, leading to the cops forcing an evacuation of the gate areas and everybody going through security again. That only took 6 hours!So unfortunately I’m not going to be able to make the medal ceremony, which is rather gutting as I missed it last year too.
Save The Date!ACME's Super-Randonneur Medal Ceremony will be held at The Compasses, Littley Green, on Saturday 11th November.All welcome, whether getting a medal or not, but please let me know.We will have the use of the 'Green Room' from 18:00, so come early to eat - then we'll kick off presentations at 20:00.
