    Dear Joe,
    just a suggestion, those who perform Jumma Prayer will be difficult to meet at 1:00pm, is it possible to meet at 1:30pm and drive start at around 2:00pm?
    i would love to join but seems too tight to come to the meeting point at 1:00pm.

    Thank you in advance for usual understanding.
