Do we know who the chief controllers (& cooks ) are? I'm sure in 2013 there was a nice list. Though it's probably not strictly relevant.(Currently pondering how far I want to ride to/from wherever, going away from E Anglia.)

I am volunteering at Brampton from late on Sunday. Am I correct in thinking the control will close late on Wednesday? Just trying to arrange a night away post LEL (birthday).
I can now book a hotel in the lakes for Thursday night for a quiet meal!
Thanks folks, that works well. Both myself (Dai) and my partner (Kate) are volunteering and I can now book a hotel in the lakes for Thursday night for a quiet meal! Not volunteered on a big ride before, have ridden a few but this will be a new experience and looking forward to it
This is last chance saloon for becoming a LEL volunteer. Fortunately, we have rather good staffing levels overall, but could do with some additional hands in the second part of the event during the workweek (say, August 10-12) in Boston, Louth, Malton and Brampton) sign up here if you are keen: https://londonedinburghlondon.com/volunteer
