No need puggy, no need. Besides the dogmobile's more working strain than Crufts champion, if you get my drift.puggy wrote:Asif i would doggy old beanit will be interesting to see him work , surprised

More stonechips than Eddie Stobart's fleet, product of doggy's one man mission to wear out the A14. Not to mention interior decoration courtesy of 3 cavaliers.

Right, I'll come. If I survive breaking the news to the missus that is 
Guess she could come too if teamy's missus is attending with little ones...
Now, I haven't seen the two most important questions answered in this thread:
1) Where's the Travelodge
2) Sod the museum; where's the pub?
Also, 3) Puggy, can you put your rear towing eye in and follow me down?

<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

Re: The Big Summer Meet thread, confirmed 20th August
Good man, see you at ten Sam, I am aiming to be there from the outset as the "official" organiser I need to be there to arrange the reduced price entries and so on, after that my duties will consist of piss taking and shaking the hands of you fellow 406oc'ers.Bailes1992 wrote:Ignore me...

I finally received the conformation of group discount and signage last week by post, the stated times for our meet are 10am to 4pm and i intend on being there throughout the posted times.

Thinking maybe from Little Chef / Travel Lodge on the A45 near Rugby, CV23 9LG - but open to suggestions.

Re: The Big Summer Meet thread, confirmed 20th August
Doggy can we move the meet a bit more to the west? i will be coming down the M6 from Manchester past stoke and staffs so i reckon Puggy and MJB will be coming down that way too, dunno about Jasper5 but i think he is that way also as will anybody else coming from the northwest area.dogslife wrote:Anyone up for a convoy?

Re: The Big Summer Meet thread, confirmed 20th August
Well, there's Warwick North/A46 CV35 8RH this would be handy, (12 miles from Gaydon).
Other than that, Little Chef wise, the next ones back up your route are in Staffordshire, which is a bit out of the way for us soft southerners.
Maybe somebody with some local knowledge can suggest an alternative, or two - there used to be one right near Plod's manor, for example, but maybe its gone now?
