FAO MiniWilliam, are you heading down the A7 or across to Abingdon with the Fossies?

If you're heading down the A7 we can meet up in Selkirk or Cassa de Poole if you like.

Radio's will be on Channel 4/17.

A.:D

Sorry Craig - didn't notice this thread - I've started a wee 'sub' thread for those of us coming from Larkhall/Hamilton etc etc as to how to get into BOTHWELL SERVICES (Hamilton Services are NORTHBOUND!!!) from our neck of the woods avoiding the Motorway. As I mentioned, the roadworks were worrying me, but Stoney's told me how we can get in from 'our side'.

Those of you coming Southbound down the M/way will have no probs, so you'll be the same as last year.

[MINI William]

[stoney]

[Craig]

thanks folks.

first post all updated.:)

[ELFMAN]

Just a wee note of caution for everyone who'll be leaving from BOTHWELL Serices - you come out onto the Motorway into a 50MPH zone with narrowed/closed lanes and Contraflow because of the Raith Interchange roadworks - so just take it easy and watch your mirrors/speed! I know, I know, Grandpa Elfman strikes again......

[Duncan Stewart]

Just to remind you Helen and I are joining you at Huntleys of Salmesbury (as posted on page 7 of main thread ;) )
Hoping to get some photos of you folks arriving or on the M6 :D
Probably be off line until Friday now so see you all then

Remember as well guys that the Variable overheads on the M42 still work and book you at 70+ even when they are not lit up and showing a slower speed. :eek: :(
