Men...just a couple of thoughts for anyone going on Friday and coming from darn sarf (M11N onto A11N) or heading over on the A14

Beware of the big yellow box as you leaving the A11 northbound and joining the A14 south of the Newmarket junction. Everyone slows for the camera BUT I have also seen a scamera van parked just around the blind bend a mile or so after the aforementioned fixed one near to the Rowley Mile service area.

Keep an eye out also for scamera vans from A11/A134 junction at Thetford all the way up to Snetterton – There are some very tempting long straights and the dirty feckers hide up on the elevated slip roads so they see over the top as it were, down onto the carriageway.

You have been warned

Coming down tomorrow evening and parking Mhairi up in Blakeney. Route planner seems to be favouring via Norwich to get from there to Snetterton Friday am but not sure.

You definitely want to avoid the Norwich ring road(s) at that time of the morning.

The Google Maps app route goes via Felthorpe, Taverham and picks up the A47 west of Costessey. Then onto the A11. Snetterton is about 20 mins from the A47/A11 roundabout.

That's the route that I always go when driving from that part of the world. I'm about 5 mins away from the A47/A11 roundabout.

I had provisionally arranged for the Dom Romney, the same guy as Rockingham and he charges £500 for the day. We need 25 people to confirm that they wanted a photographer to attend which would have made it £25 per car like last time. As the 'PHOTO' take up was pretty poor I didn't finalise any details with Dom to confirm his attendance.

Its probably a bit late in the day but his email address is 'dom@domromney.com' if someone wants to confirm with him

Cheers Bravo. I'll do that. Did wonder about Norwich.

Dave, thank you. Given the unexpected extra expense for the day, a great shame in my opinion but maybe we'll have to do without Doms 'brilliance' this time. frown

Yup was indeed at D&D wobble Alice can't come now as gainfully employed clap which saves me the dilemma of whether to let her have a go yikes or NOT , seeing how delicately she handles her Golf it was definitely on the side of not. Now giving board, lodging and garaging to Reepster
