Yep. 1 hour from home for us. Go for the rest area by the HGV weighing station?

Saturday start. Could meet you at Newport Coldra roundabout or Magor services to travel up to the Bath junction.

Duncan, I know them bits of tarmacadam well. When we were living in the midlands, Nuneaton, we would travel to the parents down the Fosse way and then M Way. Mind you that was in the 350, the trip up to Mania last year was a mare due to cooling fan knackered. Had to keep on stopping to cool down so looking forward to a serious ammount of blatting.

Just south of the junction. There is a burger bar to die for there. Breakfast bap with added fat.

If your early enough, sausage egg and........bacon! at my house. Just up the A449 (best stretch of road around)

True but the stretch from Usk to the Coldra only uses a mobile camera and always in the same lay-by. The local plod has twice asked me (and many other locals)to stop making "victory" signs as we pass


PS How many for brekkie Jeff - need to know what size pig to butcher!!
PPS Duncan, could keep a butty warm on my manifold for you.
