people head off at different times of the afternoon, i left about 3ish last year and cruised back with a couple of others, the main cruise is going up, people come back whenever they want so if you need to be back in early then you can head off early.
i dont think anyone will mind.
oh and terry thanks for the offer, springwood is a long way from where i am but i might be ok for a lift. might have the car still not sure yet, im putting in in to get some work doneon it so its just a matter of when i put it in as to if i will have it or not for the day.
