For those who are going from the south of the region across on the A66, there is a tentative meeting point at 9:45 to 10:00. The first large lay-by at the top of the climb, after the A66 is joined by the road from Barnard Castle (A67)

Looking forward to it.

Thought to allow a bit more time due to ongoing A66 issues. Suggest meeting time of 9:30 for anyone who can make it. Happy to offer a lift to anyone from the south of the region. Please pm me.

See you there (or Carlisle [])

Thanks Greg and Deb for organising this visit. It was fascinating to see the manufacturing process and Pirelli pulled the stops out by having senior staff on hand to explain it all to us. (Good buffet too - sausage sandwiches included[]) Very worthwhile trip.

Cheers, John

Thanks to Greg and Deb, very interesting talk and tour. Seeing what goes into manufacturing and tech I don't feel quite so bad about the price of them now.

Tasty and unexpected buffet ?? Saved me a few quid too since and promised jasmine lunch on the way home. Bonus.
