I've worked out my fuel consumption, roughly 36 mpg, considering I was towing I think that's not bad..

We managed to get back to Leeds at about 1430, not bad for 400 A and B road miles (and a half hour extra in detours due to a road closure near Barnard Castle).

I managed to get down to Skegness for about 1730, and be star of the show once I got to the event, which was nice  

I might eventually get a blog post written up for Saturday although it doesn't appear to have been as popular this year?

Back in Leeds now, although Dennis is still in Skegness due to a combination of grindy sounding front wheel bearings and Mrs Siddarz' general tiredness after the Skegness event; I ended up driving her car back to use until next weekend when I can get the parts down to the caravan, fix Dennis and then drive home again.

LEJOG for me and Tony was a total of 2008.5 miles miles from starting point to finishing point, at an average of 45.42mpg, or 6.36 SPi tanks full if you prefer

Car No. 1 has returned safely to the planet. 600 odd miles, 15 hours including stops (and that includes the 50 minutes trying to get across the Dartford bridge!) We were all set for 14 hours which would have been better than last year. Mini Jock has had his lowest mileage lejog ever as his speedo is still er... not quite fully functional, so is still reading the same as pre-dumbarton.....

We have a speedo that works like that. Comes in handy on limited mileage. Good to have you home.
