Hi Ian, you fancy meeting on the way? actually anyone coming past Swindon down the M4, we could meet at the
services near junction 17?

Good news...The route is now sorted! woohoo

We've just been out and driven the route (bet I still don't get a spotted frown ) it takes about 2hrs including time for re-grouping and includes 23 tunnels, well 23 chances to make noise as we don’t really have much in the way of tunnels round here.

Plan of action is:

Meet at 5pm to leave at 5:15pm at the Air Balloon pub (used to be called the Mill House) on the A38, Junction with Glos Rd North/Southmead Rd. The full route details will be sent to you via e-mail next week, I will also print out copies of the route for those who don’t have a tomtom.

Finishing at the Swan Inn in Tytherington for around 7:15pm which has a great car park for us all. We have spoken to the Landlord at the pub who has asked if we can place orders for food in advance as there may be a fair few of us.
I’ll get a copy of the menu typed up and posted so those of you who want to eat could you please send me/e-mail your food order ASAP so that we can let him know

srebbe64 - I've added you to the list.

I'm typing up the menus now as i don't think scanning the menu and posting the pics on here will work too well

No worries, Services might not be a good place to meet though as we are starting from the air ballon pub. Any thoughts on where you want to meet up on the way and what time? Doobies garden centre?

Yep no problem Simon. I'll wait till you get to my place.

Dave, how about meeting at the top of Wootten somewhere, as we will have to pass through purton.
