Thank you. Will I definitely be ok driving it until Saturday without it packing in?
No one can give you a definite guarantee, but personally I wouldn't be stressing about it. If you are concerned, avoid hard acceleration and keep the revs below 3000.
It's a bit like having high blood pressure; the risk of a disastrous event is increased, but it's still not likely to happen tomorrow. It's important to get it sorted, but not desperately urgent. You'd likely want to avoid high stress activities in either case until it's fixed.
Unless of course you're looking at >200/120 or a cambelt unchanged in 20 years.
