Another year, and we’re off to the welcoming arms of the Princes Arms (see what I did there??) for the now traditional Pancake Run 2016. Setting off from Kent nice and early we had a nice easy traffic free journey in the allocated satnav time of 4 ½ hours to arrive refreshed and ready for the weekend…..
……in no way did the journey take 8 hours, involve stoppages on the M1, M6, M54, or A5 including an amusing stint where the traffic was queued at the end of the M54, where there’s a roundabout, which was blocked by people ignoring the A49 ‘road closed’ signs for miles around, and arguing with the poor sap lumbered with standing at the road block telling them, that despite them being special people, they CAN’T go down the closed road!!!
Anyway, we got there, just several hours later than planned….

Soon found everyone in the bar!

Much drinking (for some), excellent food, more drinking(for some) and to bed….. soon it was Saturday and breakfast was well under way when we eventually got down there!

Once refreshed it was off onto ‘stage 2’…
With a quick regroup before the entertaining roads….

After this the normal pancake run took a little of a sideways turn, and instead of the tunnel run we visited a charity Japanese car show, to add to their coffers….. I think we made quite a display!

Then again it was time to move, once large ice-creams had been consumed! Back to the hotel and prepare for the evening meal! This year, in another tweak, the pancake house visit was fore-gone in favour of the excellent Hotel food on the huge breakfast table, seating for 24!!!!
