Sainsbury's car park M4 J12.
(Sainsbury's has a Mucdonalds for coffee/juice and petrol station for petrol/munchies...)

7:30am for a 7:45 depart to be safe I guess.

Suggested Route:
Leave Sainsbury's and cross M4 onto A4 towards Newbury then A340 towards Pangbourne.
In Pangbourne join A329 towards Streatley and cross the Railway & River onto the B4009 (great road if empty!).
Join the A4074 Wallingford bypass and then right on to the A329 again at Shillingford (good/fast'ish road).
At Thame we get on the A418 towards Aylesbury.
Through Aylesbury picking up the A41 towards Tring.
Before Tring we get on to the B489 towards Dunstable (another good road if clear).
Through Dunstable on to the A505 to the M1 J 11.
M1 J11 North for a short distance to Toddington.

Weather looks like it's gonna be pants... At least we don't have to bother washing the cars before we go!

Kai, I dont know if I'll be leaving that early to be honest. A couple of friends of mine will be headed over in the morning so I may go straight to the M1 services and meet everyone there.
