Brakes now fixed, it's amazing how much a clean and brush up works along with flushing the old treacle out of the brake lines and replacing it with some new fluid.
So I'm now ready for Sunday, I don't know the area very well so if anyone has their CB on around 9.00 to 9.30ish I may need some direction

I would prefer a full bottle in front of me than a full frontal lobotomy.

Violets lane is a ford 1100yard (1KM) long. Reported to be the longest ford in Europe.
At this time of year it is normally be impassable (unless your in a boat or very brave), but due to the lack of rain it's currently running at about 2-3' at the deepest parts.
If people want I can make it the last lane of the day. For those not wanting to do it there will be an alternative route
