I'm aiming for 11am as I have a bit of a drive

Sounds good mate :)

What I would suggest is to aim to arrive at the Newport Pagnell services at 9:00am, as Panya mentioned, and after a brief meet-and-greet with everyone we set off at 9:10am sharp?

.

I can meet at Trowell services if anyone is going to be about? and proceed to the destination...

Is it the one along the M1? Isn't it further up north from the exit to Plank & Leggit (J24)... or is Google Maps messing with me?

[BenIS]

I want to convoy! I only live about 20 mins away lol i could meet at trowell services though. Thats inbetween 25 and 26.

[lordturns]

I bought this t-shirt from Pistonheads shop to wear on the day....cool :outforcount:

[LexIS200Sport]

cool T-shirt Jeremy, that's some dedication right there!

[panya]

Leaving Pagnell services at 9:10 sharp is fine with me lexIS200sport.

[Bluesman]

This time next week we will be scrutinising each others babies. Lets hope the sun keeps on shining. During the week I shall be getting her ladyship cleaned inside and out.

Look forward to meeting everyone and putting faces to those ID's. Mike

[lukie]

sadly due to family commitment's I won't be able to attend, hope you all have a good day tho !

[Dinho]

I like the sound of a convoy! I'm driving from Wolverhampton, my route would be the A38, but I could do M6 and join the M42 if thats the route people are taking?

I'm not sure what service stations are around down there.

And i'll definitely have a few cleaning agents in the boot! lol

[lordturns]

cool T-shirt Jeremy, that's some dedication right there!

Thought I'd go looking suitably 'corporate' if there is such a thing lol

[IHgs300]

sadly due to family commitment's I won't be able to attend, hope you all have a good day tho !

Sorry to hear that Luke, maybe see you at the next one.

[ChrisIS200SportTTE]

Just washed and waxed the car Ian... Last time before the meet! I wonder if it'll look this good next Sinday after a week of commuting and then driving to and from Swansea? Doubt it lol

[LexIS200Sport]

To Dinho, BenIS, and petayV8; there is a truck stop at M1 J23. Perhaps we could meet you guys there to join the convoy, en-route to Plank & Leggit?

I found the stop on Google Maps (click to enlarge):

Here is the website for that stop: http://www.j23truckstop.com/

I guess this could work for those coming from Birmingham (and around it). What do we think?

I dont think it will stay shiny either Chris..LOL.....Noticed someone above mentioned pristine examples ....steer clear of mine then, it's far from pristine...

[ChrisIS200SportTTE]

Haha mines far from pristine also.... Lol

This falls on my route so would def be up for meeting here

[Dinho]

That stop is fine by me.

Need to arrange a time

But...... I've just screwed my back bumper trying the mop on it and went through the paint a good 4 or 5 times!

Cant even disguise them. Makes me not want to go anywhere now

[BenIS]

I can do that. A few miles out my way but i want to convoy lol

[ChrisIS200SportTTE]

Good news, not coming from Swansea anymore, party cancelled.

1 day to clean the car before and I don't have to drive so far :)

Stuart will prob win furthest travelled now

[LexIS200Sport]

Alrighty then, Google Maps suggests that it will take us about 50 minutes to get from the Newport Pagnell services to the truck stop at M1 J23.

Here is a map of the convoy: http://goo.gl/maps/aWUAi

With that in mind, can I ask that those keen to join us from the truck stop at J23 to be there at 10:00am? We will then leave in what should be a reasonably numbered convoy and arrive at Plank & Leggit by 10:20am

All in favour? :zee:

[gsdude]

10am suits me...looking forward to it
