I hear a Condor is going to be turning up right in the middle, you might have some serious marshalling to do!

Count yourself lucky. It's just taken me an hour and ten to get from St Peter's Valley to Town (3 miles) because they've closed the Avenue and some prat has pranged their car on the inner road causing the road to be closed and a bunch of over excited honorary's to start directing traffic with a zeal not previously seen.

I wouldn't have minded if I'd accepted the invite to the beer tent like last year, but I was actually trying to do some work (for once)
