Who's meeting up Sunday?

I know Capri rob will be and we'll be meeting meatballs but he lives 10 minutes from pod...

Trying to figure a location to meet etc...

Rob, does your route to pod take you near mine or near m1 junction 21?

No Jim - AA Routeplanner says its M6 and A14 - don't even touch the M1 if I go straight there

I've lost Matts postcode but it depends what time he wants to leave - might be a bit to early so may be going straight there - I've got to park with e46zone anyway :mad:

Meatballs is a coont and isn't now coming to Santa pod :(

Looking at the routes etc, I think it might just be easier if everyone just heads straight there.

My route takes me down the m1 to a14 and I'll be leaving a little earlier than most some can get to the camp site and drive into tents

8O

Your keen Jim, not sure my body thinks 7am exists on a sunday :mad:

Especially as that means me getting up at 05:30, which just aint gonna happen, i was thinking about leaving mine at about 8, so as to get to the pod at a far more civilised time so will give you a bell when i get there.

Hi guys, I'll be leaving from trentham at 7am and heading down the M6 South. It will probably take me about an 1hr and 30mins to get to Junction 23 of the M1. Or is anyone ok meeting at Northampton service area which is just before I leave the M1. Heres my route, let me know whats best for you :cool: :

Sound as Jim, not polished the turd but have thrown a bucket of water over it winkeye

I could meet you at the leicester forest east services at 8:30ish if you want stokiedundee, but that's not on your planned route beware I'm a cruiser not a racer mind :o: so not to worried about cruising down solo 8)
