2016 SM Euro Road Trip

[BennyD]

If we leave much later the passes will start to get snowed in. However, with El Niño screwing things around it might be 30 degrees and blue skies.

Book a day of annual sick leave. Simples!

Might be a bit obvious if I'm not there the rest of the week either!

 

[BennyD]

Book a weeks sick leave, I'm sure nobody will bother.

 

[Doohickey]

Can you book sick leave? Isn't it supposed to be when you're poorly.

Can you book sick leave? Isn't it supposed to be when you're poorly.

I might book a family crisis. Or woman's trouble. No one ever prices deeper into those excuses.

Guess it's where you work and your conscience, seems to be part of the great British work force psyche now,
Week of paid sick is a weeks holidays, makes me sick, I have seen people where I work do it when really tough weeks come up, total lack of moral conviction!!!

 

[Contigo]

total lack of moral conviction!!!

I guess that sums Benny up very well!

 

[D Walker]

I guess that sums Benny up very well!

Well, only met him once, and have to admit we are in agreement regarding France & Belgium( I think)!

 

[BennyD]

Week of paid sick is a weeks holidays, makes me sick.......

So, take a weeks sick leave to get over it!

 

[EnzoMC]

add me to the after list... fantastic time, up for this again if still have the GS.

So take a weeks sick leave to get over it!

Exactly why I went self employed! Totally responsible for myself, and when the clients employees go missing in action I can remind them they are employing a load of glass backs!

Ok, how about 23rd September to 2nd October?

 

[allandwf]

First set of dates suit me as I'm back 7th to 28th . But go with whatever suits the majority.

I was driving the alps this year on the 18-19 Sept and it was already snowing that week.

I got an amazing book on Alpine passes and Porsche for my birthday.

It's an epic read with fantastic photos and very nice cars too.

Sorry , could not resist but ,
as you guys are dreaming of Apine mountain passes, I thought I would whet your appetite with an Andalucian pass (Gaucin to Ronda) from sunday.
The black dot in the distance is my GS.
Your trip sounds fab...will be epic with all those Maserati's

 

[Team GCR]

I am already committed to do the European Classic Touring Clubs 2016 Euroclassic.

Been wanting them to do a tour of Southern Ireland for years, I keep requesting it when they give us a questionnaire so would be bad form not to go!

In September we have the Southampton Boat Show (okay), the Cannes Boat Show (a bit more like it) and then the Monaco Super-Yacht Show (now we're talking), so it's a no from me, unfortunately.

If I was grading excuses, that would score very highly indeed
