We're at J8 M1, and I've told Anita we need to be moving by nine - which means she might be active by half past...

Well, I'm making this up as I go along... but I live at the start of this blue line and while my street's a bit crowded there's a convenient Sainsbury's visible just to the east of me: googlemaps

Perhaps we should aim to meet there at say, nine-fifteen to leave by half-past? Chance to fill up with coke and beer and barbeque goodies, too... Sedici?

There'll be one spot available later on on the stand - I should be there for 9.30, but will have to leave by lunchtime. frown

Okay I am certainly in for a convoy smile

I was hoping to arrive in time to get onto the grass area though is that going to be possible with the convoy?

OK, I've lined up my Dad to clean my car on Friday. I'll have to tape my daughters hands to her car seat to stop her drawing on the windows with sticky fingers, but I'll make up a picnic and am looking forward to a nice afternoon. I don't think I'll make it onto the Club stand as I won't be able to get there until late morning.

See you all on Saturday smile

Sedici, we aren't on the grass area I referred to at the start of the thread, as the grassed area if being given to the Masers (see Bob's post on page 4 and the link to the map posted just above it) frown We've been moved to an area further up near the banking.

There's probably room for 20-odd cars there, so I'd say that given that doors open @ 8.30, if you are getting there later than 10-10.30 you *might* not get on the stand. It obviously depends on when/how many people turn up though,so its difficult to say. smile

That map is not correct.

We have this year been positioned on a grassed area near the Aircraft display. We should have a bit more space than last year smile
