Have we decided where we will end up and does the pub do food? SWMBO wants to know if she's cooking for one or two tonight.

OK guys we have a pub sorted for Sunday.

We will be finishing at The Masons Arms (Brewers Fare) on the A38. It's only a few minutes away from the last tunnel so not as far to travel and they serve food until 9:30pm. They are also willing to rope off a section of the pub for us so that we can sit together rather than being scattered around the pub. With this in mind, can you please let me know by Sunday AM if you will be bring a passenger with you so that I can give them a rough idea of numbers.

So plan is…

Meet in Staples car park for 4pm, aim to leave around 4:30pm. Hopefully this should have given enough time for the shoppers to bugger of and leave the roads to us and give us time to re-group along the way biggrin

Guys

For those who don't know where Staples is the post code is BS2 9DA. We'll aim to leave around 4:30pm so that we have plenty of time for regrouping etc.

If anyone wants to join us slightly later, let me know and I can give you my number so I can let you know where we are or where we can meet on route.

Nope, car still works, just got back from a Bristol-London roundtrip and it did admirably. Average of 27mpg which, considering over an hour was crawling through London traffic, is good.

Alas, my memory card filled up just as I went through the final tunnel so I missed the 'Monaro shenanigans'. Gutted

This is the first meeting I've attended and didn't know what to expect. But I thoroughly enjoyed it and was surprised at how my Focus RS sounded in the tunnels. It's encouragement for me to get my E30 M3 finished and fit a carbon fibre airbox on it.. that would sound awesome spinning up at 8000RPM biggrin

Nice to see you all, chat more next time smile

Paul.

D'oh! Saw the tail end of the convoy coming through the Midland Rd tunnel. Unfortunately I was in a work Focus after a late callout!
