What time do you expect to be at Donington Services?



Minimax, just noticed the post on other thread, we'll see you all in the services Car Park. I'm assuming we won't be able to miss you.

Do we need to exchange mobiles?
How many will be coming?



I'm coming! With my bro and maybe another person. Will be in a dark blue festa, so we'll find you, it may be easier

Donnington services at about 10:30?
If people are meeting at services in West Yorkshire at 9:30 it should take about an hour to Donnington Services? Give or take.

That means we should be in Stratford by 12:30? Plenty of time for errecting. (shite, just reminded me, need to buy a tent)

I must point out that due to having a sewing machine under my bonnet I will be praying for a tailwind in order to meet these times

The first junction after you join it from the M1, (junction 1). Its where the M69 meets the A5 I think. There is a hotel on the roundabout, planning to meet him there.

I am joining at Donnington services.
One car, two people.

BBQ? was not going to bother, too much of a arse I reckon.
I will be relying on a fine selection of Teds homemade pies to keep me fed.
Will probably bring some rolls and lots of crisps for when I get hungry in the night
