Hello there.
Last year some time I came across a fantastic excel spreadsheet that allowed you to plan each days journey and calculated the time needed to depart each morning in order to arrive a set time before sunset.
I haven't been able to find the link since and can't recall where I saw it.
Does anyone have something similar?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks everyone,
Yes, it is probably a bit excessive using the spreadsheet to plan to be onsite 'x' time before sunset, but with 2
young kids who like to be fed on time, will save me plenty of tantrums.
It took me a few hours over a couple of days to fill out 3 months worth of travel, and has calculated how much fuel I'm going to need, cost, total distance covered, hours travelled etc etc. Not sure if I'll even look at it when on the road, but at least will be there if I need it.

Good on you, and hope all fares
well for a
well-planned trip. In my experience, It's hardly excessive to plan properly in such circumstances. Spreadsheets get my vote; and they're also a useful record for making notes for your blog/travel diary, and aid future trip planning.
Safe travels.
John.
