[AndyP & Lenore]

Jonny, Hermiston Gait is just off the bypass at the end of the M8.

This link shows you the roundabout to come off at the end of the M8 (http://www.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=hermiston+junction,+edinburgh&sll=55.925043,-3.311906&sspn=0.016615,0.039911&ie=UTF8&z=16&iwloc=addr&om=1)

Johnny, just park in the first car park you come to infront of the retail units (just of the last wee mini roundabout) :D

PM'd you my number just in case.

[AndyP & Lenore]

Craig, bear in mind that whole area is undergoing major renovation. Road system completely changed recently, which they build a new B & Q Warehouse.

Stephen, if there is no hold ups, I would see you do it in approx 45 mins sticking to the speed limits, for safety sake, I would give yourself an hour..:)

PM 'd you my number :D

[Mini Ecosse]

Thanks for info and mobile number

Stephen

[MINI William]

[AeroJonny]

stephen, where are you coming from? I've to cross the Kingston bridge on my way too.

[Craig]

Jonny, he is normally coming from Oban :eek: so will be coming over the Erskine Bridge I would have thought and then through the centre of Glasgow on the M8.. :D

[AeroJonny]

Holy crap! That's commitment! I'll probably see him along the road at some point as I'll be going along the M8 from Greenock due to some pesky roadworks, so from the Erskine Bridge we're following the exact same route.
