Frog of the pod - Eastern Convoy

[TNT ANDY]

Righto Chaps,

We will be setting off to the Pod early doors on the Friday. We can go in 2 directions, either A47 for a shorter more rural drive, or A14 for a motorway feel. This all depends on the members going.

There will be an obligatory Maccy D stop.

Let me know who's coming

1. TNT Andy.

[Bigfoot]

At the moment got 3 possible 4 members coming from this direction.

Will be happy to meet up at Cambridge Services for the Maccy D breakfast :)

Nice one Tom, let's see who's coming and we'll meet us with you there. What time you meeting there?

[Bigfoot]

Whats with the Tom :confused:

Ill be looking at leaving around 7 from mine, so more than likely around 7:45 - 8am at cambridge services. To get to pod at 9, might actually leave earlier thinking about that. What time you looking at getting to Pod?

[TNT ANDY]

Cock!

Thought you where called Tom. Sorry fella,

Dale's not too bad I purpose. You can use Tom on Sundays if you like

I'll meet up with you whatever time, I seriously doubt mine will be mapped by then anyway. So any times Ione with me.

Yeah well used that name for over 27 years might be worth having a change once in a while :sad2:

yeah, think aiming for 8 at cambridge services will be good enough, unless leaving really early always going to get caught on the A14 driving along, so might as well stack a steady drive after a nice sausage and egg McMuffin with hash brown :cool:

[JP Racing]

Put my name down for a bit of that :)

Think it will be touch and go for the tubby to make it but the kangoo is me back up :)

I'll pick you up if red isn't ready, I can't stay over though due to a family commitment on the Saturday.

Let of know which way you want to go. I'll get your Ecu back to you any time you need it.

1. TNT Andy.
2. Jp Racing.

[JP Racing]

Coolio if red ain't ready would take you up on your offer and throw in some burger money and petrol too :) would be beer money but as you the driver ;)

Just got it now - I was thinking of Tom 6 ft 6:confused:

[TNT ANDY]

well That's

1. TNT Andy.
2. Jp Racing.
3. Mr Raider + 1

Good going chaps

[Bigfoot]

Just got it now - I was thinking of Tom 6 ft 6:confused:

Ahh, yeah slightly shorter than him, but still can only just fit in a 5 :( still dont know how he managed.

Ill speak to those going in this area make sure time is fine and meet up en-route :)

[TNT ANDY]

Fingers crossed - JP's car should be back also and my ecu should be back and installed. Handy Andy and Oli are having a pig of a time with there F7P conversions and nothing seems to be going in favour for them, so unlikely they will be coming. I'll be poking a few others b4 the day.

[Big Steve - Raider]

If you're going to continue along the A14 then Millie & I can meet you at the Maccie D's at Huntingdon Services if you like? (A1/A14 Junction)

If Tom/Fail Dale can wait till then we can eat some brekkie there? :D :laugh:

Sure can survive another 15 mins to wait for food :rolleyes::sad2::cry:

Should aim for about 8:30 at huntingdon then after a meet up a cambridge, or shall we just move onto meeting at huntingdon rather than stopping off 12 miles before hand.

:niceone:

Yeah it's probably easier for everyone to stop once for a Maccie D's at Huntingdon ;)

Don't be like that; Louis Spence :laugh: :wasntme:

[TNT ANDY]

Right - what's the latest chaps. Things have moved on a wee bit. What time are we meeting where? I think Steve posted up somewhere else about an earlier start so as we can meet up with the big group at Tesco nr the pod?

[Bigfoot]

Right, so from mine will me myself and Luke M from around 6:30, should be passing cambridge services for around 7:30 and on to the next services at Huntingdon Services for Brekkie :) about 7:50 quick stop off and should get to the Tescos for around 8:30 or so, how does that sound? well apart from the waking up earlier bit :cry: but will be great for a nice convoy off all the cars :cool:

Gr8 - me and JP will defo be meeting up with you Huntingdon for 7.50. There may be 1 or 2 others, but don't hold yer breath.

I'll plan the route out and see you there then

:)

[Bigfoot]

Well the bloke at my work is decided to not turn up today, so im not sure what is happening now :cry: how can it be so difficult just to turn up to work once a day, its not like its a difficult day really. Working harder getting my new project clean and running which it nearly is, just needs a lot of red colour restorer going into the paintwork as its a bit dull but a million times better than what it did look like when we got the car. Plus engine is running sweet as with the new turbo in place and not smoking at all plus carb is nicely setup and idles better than my own car and this one has been sitting for the last 9 years doing nothing. Goes to show how good these cars are really.

[Mr Raider]

Any ideas what time we'll be hooking up around Norwich area? Also, has anyone bought any tickets other than tracktime?

[Bigfoot]

Well looks like its a no go for me, and also Luke M who managed to crack his manifold on his gtx turbo engine :( Raider is sitting still till beginning of month then it will be taxed. Shame its not going to be shown anywhere though well if I sort out for RWS it will be.

:crap::crap::crap: Just get your profile name changed to Epic Fail Dale! You can get your car taxed for next month tomorrow no problems & bring that!! Be a good opportunity to run it in down the strip! ;)

Come on Fail, CHOP CHOP!

After all if you don't come, whose voice are we going to hear all night when the campsite falls silent! :laugh:

[Bigfoot]

You know I would turn up to those events and whatever car I goes in and enjoy a drink, cant turn that down, but the MD of the company will not allow me to take the time off due to my manager moving house and you have better odds at winning the lottery than the other person turning up :crap:

And I thought you would be going back to a hotel because your too old to camp :coffee:

[Big Steve - Raider]

As Lomo has suggested I am going to head towards Wellingborough with the aim of getting to the Tesco's Car Park at about 8:20am so we're ready for the BIG Convoy to pod departing at 8:30am:

WELLINGBOROUGH VICTORIA PARK,
VICTORIA PARK,
WELLINGBOROUGH,
NORTHAMPTONSHIRE,
NN8 2EF

To get there from the Mc Donalds at Brampton Services on the A1/A14 Junction we WILL BE LEAVING BRAMPTON SERVICES AT 7:45am

See those of you up for it....there!! :niceone:

[TNT ANDY]

We'll be seeing you at Tesco Chappy, we've definitely got Mr Raider, JP, and myself from over here. Handy Andy is a possibility and Markey B keeps blowing his up.:crap:
