Sure you dont mean junction ( as i cant remember the retail park near Junction 8

Junction 8 is Lenham
Junction 9 is Ashford west
Junction 10 is Ashford East

the retail park has Fanky & bennys, pizza something, kentucky and a burger king if memory serves, the only services on the M20 are the junction before 8, also a good meeting spot if you are just wanting to meet grab a bite to eat and head off to dover.

We're staying at the Travelodge on the Tuesday night for a Wednesday morning sailing so will miss out on a pre-ferry beer.

Well be sure to leave a few tyre marks in the car park for you though!

E320

you might be joined by 2 Essex expats if we can get in at the Travelodge & can get there by 8pm as we are leaving Nottingham at 3ish Wednesday afternoon

We are on the 8am chunnel the following morning so would be good to meet
a few PHers for a beer as its our 1st Le Mans

Cheers

Just me & my pal Dazza in his new BM 130. Its our 1st visit, as usual all those
who were "up for it large" dropped out as soon as their better halves got invloved

There are some fellow PH'ers staying on our site Club-motorsport, planning to join them for
beers at the drivers Parade on Friday but have not planned to meet anyone on route.

Our chunnel arrives into Calais at 8.30am French time on Thursday so not sure whether to take lunch at Honfleur,
or just get to our site ASAP.

Any West Ham fans in your group?

Are you from Rayleigh ? Daz used to live there some years back, my best pal lives
there too. Hoping to book the travelodge later this week, fingers X'd we can get in.
The downside is we will be hitting the M25 in peak rush on that Wed night, hopefully should be there by no later than 8.

Cheers for now
John
