Don't worry too much over the BBQ - mine's a fair size & I've a feeling the weather's not gonna co-operate now. :(

AFAIK, Convoy meeting point is Breakfast Junction which is near Warwick Parkway railway station, north of Gaydon.

As I am coming from the south I shaln't be joining you; it might be a bit early too.

It would be cool (or maybe a bit sad) if I could video you all arrive.

Current: 407 2.2 HDi 170 & C6 2.7 HDi.
Former: 406 1.9 TD; 406 HDi 90; 407 2.2 160; 307cc 180; 508 HDi 140.

ok guys i will be at jct 6 M42 at 7.30am on saturday, let those that want to convoy and have breakfast meet there and then we can find somewhere for a feed before hitting gaydon for 10am hopefully allowing RWB to film our arrival in style :)

i propose that we will wait till 8am at jct 6 then go for food till about 9.30ish then off to convoy in.

see you all tomorrow.

I'll be there whenever I get there - not easy to arrange daytrips with an angsty 5-month-old...

Plus I really want to clean it first. The whole damn roof is covered in bird crap :shock:

I'll bring along my £103.13 petrol receipt from the last fill if anybody's not seen one before... :cry:
<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
