I would like to leave around at 11 or 12 ? I drove to Picton on Tuesday and there was quite a lot of roadworks and potholes it took us 7 and bit hours and stopped a few times along the way.

my leave time depends on work, im hoping to have thursday off if i work like a demon next 2 days. but if not will be finishing at 12pm on the day.

jeremy has the whole thurs off so will depend on me.

keen to convoy up, i HAVE to stop @ springs junction as i have no functional fuel gauge, but aside from toilet stops and spine relocation moments il be driving nonstop to blenheim to relax at anthonys place.

I have been informed today they are having a farewell for me after the team meeting on Thursday morning so I expect 12:30 will be as early as I can hit the road.

7 hours drive time for us. We had a pretty good run though. I'd allow more time to be safe if you're trying to make a ferry
