Follow the A418 towards LB, then do a right onto the 505 until you get to the A5. Do a left and keep going until you get a roundabout, do a left then first right.


Note to Tony, you've also got to get it right

It's right at the roundabout and first left.
Left would take him towards Heath & Reach and first right into a sand pit

Couple of notable things in LB this morning on the way to work:

1 - Grey C reg Jag XJS with a PH sticker on display!!!!!! In years of membership only the second i've seen on the road by chance. Spotted on the Hockliffe Road roundabout



OI, grey?...Grey?...GREY? That's metallic "winter steel blue" And a right bastard it was to match for respraying. Grey? FFS, might as well just have used flipping dulux

On a more serious note, yes that was Jaggy with yours truely occupying the pilot's seat!

I've been spotted. Hey Ted, do I get a rebate for the free advertising?

Edited to add: Thanks to FWD and BigTone for taking over the mapping role whilst I slept!!

I know what I meant to mean

Probably best to save the sand pit for after the pub....

It may as well have been bright lime green, most things tend to be grey at that time of day - I blame the fog...

Is that your daily drive?

Would love to meet up with some fellow PHers, but is there any funny handshakes or initiation tests I should be aware of?
I live at St Albans so only about 25mins away, anybody want to meet and run up there.
i know people get cagey about attending new meets, I'm not going to feel out of place in my mini ?

Condor : I think most will nosh beforehand. If you want pie there, then be aware we'll want to pinch your chips

Detomaso : Come along. Paul2000 and other come from "down that way". Ignore Trouser1212, he's just bitter because someone keeps parking in front of his garage. I'm hoping for a bigger turnout this time, like you said people are wary of a new meet, but we're on our second

If Tony and Oggs manage to follow my directions without getting lost, I may think about organising a weekend run later in the year. What do you lot think of that (constructive comments only)
