Alright peeps, as we are about as far away as you can get it would make sense to set off from here and gather up a convoy on the way. Basically the plan is to head up the m5 to meet the Bristol crew at Gordano services for approx 1200 on the Friday and head north. Would be good if anyone from Wales can RV with us and get a convoy going too.
Please post up if you want to join the convoy and ill pm my phone and all the details nearer the time. Many of us will be towing so a steady 60 (ish:laugh:) trundle up the motorway is the order of the day to save fuel, and we can add more stops in to gather people up!
