Thats the one. Location is the crooked billet pub for a lunch at 1 ish however a few of us are meeting at the Esso garage at Bicester for a blat. (I might not be there as the old dears Espace is unlikely to be able to keep up with you lot!

Unless I drop the car off at the pub and someone picks me up on the way through for a blat.

You come off the motorway and get straight on the dual carriageway and at the bottom of the dual carriageway is the Esso garage at the roundabout.

This is a very straight long safe peice of road!

Don't think a time has been decided. It's only about 15mins to the pub from there though.

Some very nice roads over that way as well

I'll grab you from the pub car park if you like!

Shall we say meet at noon at the Bicester Esso (A34/A41) which is about 2 mins from the M40 jn9, heading towards Bicester. Head along A41 to the pub. pick up any high-speed hikers, have our little blat around , get back to pub bit later for lunch.

Bit nearer the date we can book a large table, or whatevef, for 1pm.

Sound ok ?

Regards
Ed

Late to this thread and can't be ar$ed to read through 6 pages of it

It's high time I dusted the cobwebs off the GTR after its winter layup.

Do I take it that you're meeting April 25th at the Crooked Billet?

Not exactly "Thames Valley" is it? More North Oxfordshire.

Howabout we arrange a meeting within 5 miles of the Thames?

Think it was chosen as there was some very nice roads leading over to the pub from all directions. Also it has a huge car park and beer garden.
