85 minutes from the Queens Head to the roundabout.
It must include stopping there for a few drinks :)

I know it's a long way until your birthday but I suggest you start dropping hints about one of those globe world map things.
you can get one that opens up and becomes a drinks storage!

In Bavaria they have this weird law that if petrol stations sell booze, they can only sell it to people who arrive in cars - not people who walk in off the street.
A friend who lives across the road from a petrol station popped over the road to buy a bottle of wine and they refused to give it to him on the grounds that he didn't drive there.
So he went back across the road, walked up 5 flights of stairs to get his car keys, walked back down, got in the car and drove 20 metres to the petrol station and bought the wine.
It's something about "protecting the youth from the evils of alcohol".
I begged him to construct a life-size cardboard cut-out of a car and "drive" in carrying it.
In other news: 'ning b3ta!

That reminds me of the time we walked through a drive-thru and they wouldn't serve us...even after we went back, fully arranged in car formation and mimed the steering wheel, winding down the window etc...
