Heathrow, although it is on the other side of town, I can still come out until whatever the last train is on your route. The N9 serves Heathrow, so can use that to get back to Traf Sq (then the N26 back to W'stow)....
Although finishing at Heathrow would mean using the bus. Is that allowed?
I just said Upminster as that is the most popular finishing station looking at previous attempts.

No worries I have the Heathrow end tied up and will stop the watch for Root's team

Awesome, this is looking like it's going to be a lot of fun.
I wonder, will we adopt a gentlemen's agreement to hold each others' doors, if needs be, or will there be no mercy?
Other teams are welcome to join in, although my house is getting a bit packed...

Thanks, GU. A most munificent gesture there! I shall see you at Heathrow then (and this time attempt to catch the 140 home before it leaves early).
Root - we are all friendly people and it would be a Bad Thing if we didn't help each other. What with Bayswater and other things out to get us, we'll all need a bit of help here and there!

Upminster it is then, although we need to exchange contact details so we know what each other is doing....

Just to let you know that if Root and Starkey also re-schedule for 28th July then unfortunately I won't be able to stop the watch at Hetahrow as I am going on hol's early hours of 29th

Peter - yes.
Alright, here's an idea. Starkey and I can do one by ourselves, but not for a record. I didn't get the job, so I'm in no hurry to have one last go any more, but wouldn't mind trying out a route. Which means that Kevin, you're excused, Anthony, you are too, unless you particularly want to help out, and Starkey, perhaps another date in the week (Wednesday or Thursday) would be better, as I'm off on holiday on Saturday. Of course, if you can only do Friday, then we'll stick to that.
Pete, can't you commit to anything?

You still coming on Monday?

Well Thursday would probably be just as okay as Friday actually! Whatever tickles your fancy.

Thursday, please! That will mean I can avoid a strange situation on Saturday, where I would be leaving Heathrow in the morning to go and get my stuff, only to return to Heathrow in the afternoon for a flight!
If you want to stay over at my house, in the middle of my street, that's fine.

Well, it might just be the three of us then! In which case we'll have to go "all-against-all" to make it a competition. Oh well.
Hope everything goes alright for you on Monday, Peter. Hate to say it, but you seem like you know how to get your priorities right.
