I have received no requests to mail passes so I assume everyone is meeting at Birchanger Green Services Junction 8 on the M11 between 09.00 and 09.30

Just noticed J8 is a long way south of where we'll be coming from. I'll send you and email with my address to post them to, hope that's OK.

Do we know the size of parking area we'll have at this event? It would be nice to have some sort of formalised parking rather than just turn up, park where you stop and leave the cars there all day which can happen at some of these events! It would be nice if we could organise this in advance so it looks 'professional' wink

I think that was why we were planning on arriving together, but now you've gone and ruined it for everyone by deciding to meet us there...

I have just checked with the organiser and he assures me that there will be a seperate area allocated for Viper parking. Perhaps we should meet at another venue to make it easier for those coming from the other direction. As a suggestion how about this http://www.comfortcafe.co.uk/index.asp only 9 mins from Duxford. A large car park and a great breakfast.

I don't want to spoil your plans Tony, don't change them just for me. We can arrange to meet you at the entrance quite easily. It just seems silly driving 12 miles south only to come back again!

No passion, that's the problem there!

Actually I think Tony has probably come up with a better idea, and for those travelling from even further North, it will probably make things alot easier.

And as Fishboy has pointed out it gives us the opportunity to grab some food en route, and a proper breakfast sounds good to me!

Baz and family, Pikey, Tom and i are all coming via Luton, the cafe sounds better for us, to save driving past Duxford up the motorway to the services then turning around and driving back down

espicially as we will be getting up at 5am for the trip down to Luton

I think thats decided then. Get to the cafe whenever you like and plan to leave there at 09.30. How about another column on the wiki Dave so that we can make sure everyone knows about the new meeting place.
