We want pictures or video if it all comes off, including the bit where Matt spouts steam

Seriously hope not, Matt spouting steam that is!

Yes, we're definitely coming, snow or no snow. Getting ridiculously excited at the thought of such a special occasion being the Bongo's first 2013 excursion. What time do we need to get there - and (with apologies for being a fortnight behind the times) are we too late to book some soup?

If the 2 Bridges is closed we might be able to use their Car Park as an overflow if required. Provided that they don't block it off.

It looks like I am going to lower the tone then. My hair is a mess after a wee puff of wind and I am not due for a shave for another month or so.

Don't worry Tony, we can do some magic with photoshop. Who would you like to look like.... Charles Bronson, Dirk Bogart, Jimmy Crankie?

This looks like being a cracking day. I looked at the Russian website the other day and found out that its my Bongos 14th birthday on 25th so a double celebration and going to make a weekend of it

Well done and thanks to everyone who's organising what will be quite a specatcle

My daughter in law's father works for a breakdown company near the bridge. She was suggesting we have one at each end "Just in case"

The photo opportunity can hardly be missed - 19 bongos and one on a flatbed cross the FRB.
