Well as much as I''d love to be there I think it's just too short notice, maybe if I had more time to plan it I could've had the monday off after so I could take a leisurely drive back up. Hopefully I'll make another one down south sometime, and Vard thanks again for the invite anyway :)

Just a quick one, i think we may be sorting a convoy to this, so i was just wondering, is everyone thats coming, mainly from the midlands? If thats the case, we can just run 1 convoy but we may do some more if people are coming from all over :)

It looks as a fair few are, Lou, aye.
There'll be a small convoy going out from Swindon, I would think, starting off with just me, Din and Rich_1988, and maybe one of my friends, if I can persuade him.

Ok well i just looked on the AA route planner (god knows why) and it suggests i take the A420 to the A34.... although it may be slightly shorter in distance i belive it is b****x so will stick with the M4 directly to the A34 bit...Junc 13 btw so imo me, Chris and Rich should meet shortly befor junc 16 (M4) and take a direct 150mph drag to junc 13.... (or not) :lol:
