SpicedApple May 2013 3:26pm, 18 May 2013 6,907 posts	Quote Pin SpicedApple Old Mum and Ellem will also be there. Are you sure that's where you want it to be, Nicki? (No public transport there, see other thread, but should hopefully be ok by car.) As I've said, peronally I'd prefer after around 8.3 miles - but will go with the majority.

Nicki No Miles May 2013 3:28pm, 18 May 2013 632 posts	Quote Pin Nicki No Miles Oh did I get it wrong? I don't mind where it is....I thought you lived near 11 Happy to go whoever so long as I know how to get there and whatever folk think is best, as I don't know the area
SpicedApple May 2013 3:31pm, 18 May 2013 6,909 posts	Quote Pin SpicedApple Since you don't know the area, I shall let you off for thinking I lived there. Casa Spicey and first relay changeover point are at 8.2 miles. Prestongrange Museum, which Duchess suggested, is at 11 miles.
Nicki No Miles May 2013 3:33pm, 18 May 2013 633 posts	Quote Pin Nicki No Miles I see I can leave London Road before the start which is at 9.50am to ensure we are in place for evyone to see who they are supporting... Will there be anywhere for us to tie balloons to Spicey?
Duchess May 2013 3:41pm, 18 May 2013 3,203 posts	Quote Pin Duchess My 11 mile suggestion doesn't work with th road closures. So it's either Casa Spicey at 8 or the "old" Fetchpoint spot in Prestonpans.
Nicki No Miles May 2013 3:43pm, 18 May 2013 635 posts	Quote Pin Nicki No Miles Well is Spicey is going to be at home anyway can I suggest we do it there? Easier to run I to the finish too...Jonny No Fetch will have finished in 3 hours, so I don't want to keep him waiting too long!

SpicedApple May 2013 3:45pm, 18 May 2013 6,910 posts	Quote Pin SpicedApple If it's Prestonpans (12 miles), we'll have to think about transport as no public transport there on the day (unless buses are re-routed rather than suspended on the 26 this year - can't seem to find any info on their website yet). Parking won't be a problem though.
