I may be down for the sunday. Just to do some meeting n greeting.

Don't think the wife was too impressed with the weekend just gone. Finished work at 8 saterday. Got up at 11 on sunday. Parcelled a load of bits up for shipping. Then got the ok off Richard and left mine at half 5 to go get em.

Another 220 miles people, just for parts! So if any of you complain about travelling to meets your gonna get :poke:

Need to check the bank and what i'm working this weekend before i can commit :thumbdown:

Get the wife in the zook on Saturday morning and get yourself down.

Just spoke to the organisers and wangled it that we can have all our vehicles in the arena and all camp next to them too. They have a limit of 5 per club but I somehow convinced her we are good lads and wont take up much space.

I'm going to bring my gas camping stove and some meat supplies. Some black pudding would be excellent though :)

As for meeting, I will be coming up the M1 so depending on the route you want to take, we could meet at a services along there? Maybe newport pagnell or northampton as jordi says

Sounds good. You want to meet up on the m1 Toddington services? Then head of to meet the others?

Anyone else coming up the m1?

Googled Twiss' route which seems to be straight up the M1

We will be coming from the A43

These services at 15a sound like the place to meet so we all end up entering and pitching up together.
