Weather forecast not looking good for old AM rustbuckets like mine so I may well be in my daily, 1974 land rover
Doesnt look good David :-( New wipers on my Rapide mind smile Fingers crossed - but there is always Burghley for a 'timelapse' shot of the two!

If I can bring the Rapide I will, but it's not good in the rain. Takes days to dry out and the wipers are rubbish

You may have paid more for your Rapide's wipers than I paid for my landy!

We could meet at the Toll Road services and go in convoy from there?

That could work, are you filling up at the Shell in Telford? Or shall I meet you in the carpark bit round the back, so to speak...

Is Hilton Park the services you drive past if you don't go on the Toll road?

That's them
No point using the toll road that time on a Saturday wink

Yes buddy - If you're coming down the M6 you'll see it before M54 jct just after the toll jct

I'm in between Market Drayton and Newport - if I can get SWMBO up I'll come meet you guys at Tf services and go on to Hilton as I'll need to fuel up the baby

Paul I'd forgotten you were that local to me!
Come to mine or I'll come to yours?
Saves both of us going out of our way to get to Hilton Park!

I can be at Hilton Park then if that's the agreed meeting point, although I'll feel a bit dirty using the main M6 tongue out

I'm sure McGurks will wash the scummy-ness of the tyres from the commoners motorway :-)

See you there

Very tempting Ed but doubt if I would get back in time for Area 20 Christmas Party. Have to be there as I am organising it so not good not to turn up biglaugh
