Which day are you going? Im still undecided whether to go on the Friday or Saturday.

And where are you going from? Im just off J4 M25 so will be heading through the Dartford tunnel at some point.

I think it will be the Saturday, hoping to make a move mid morning.

Quickest way for me (according to Google) is up the A12/A14/A143. Suppose we could have a meeting point at say the Boreham services if Medic-One is going to join us?

Likewise. I have lots of long weekends lined up but no proper holidays. Pistonfest, 2 weeks later Le Mans, then newquay 2 weeks later with the E30Zone

I've decided to take Friday off

Looking around there are some other convoys heading past but up the M11, so could meet up with them if you fancied?

Friday sounds good. Your route of A12/A14/A143 looks good but I dont have a clue where Boreham services are

Not yet...the g/f is doing a race for life on Sunday morning, and I want to go and watch. However we'd scheduled to go up on the Saturday, so depending on what my tent-buddy wants to do depends on whether I have 1 hang over or 2.

I will be there at some point, that's for sure

It's the last Chelmsford exit on the A12, go past the A130 junction then past the Danbury junction and it's there next to the Royal Mail sorting office. There's a BP garage, Travel Lodge thing & a McDonalds

I need to get the final ok from work, seeing as no-one else bothered to turn up again today - but 12 sounds fine, should be there by 2 at the latest
