Yeah I think you've been stitched up Steve. You thought that you had a proper executive type job where you had to work for a living; instead you've ended up as a cross between a despatch rider and a missionary for EBR. Oh well not a bad position :D

Be there or be square...

We're all good to go for tomorrow :P ....

Although the meeting time is still 11.00 to 11.30am, we'll be there a bit earlier to make sure they've got our dedicated parking area set up as planned.

When you arrive follow the entrance road in the car park all the way round to the left, towards the museum building main doors, and you'll find us.
