1. Davy
2. Craig
3. Andrew
4. Eddie
5. Eddie
6. William
7. Brian

Yep I'm in :thumbs up:

Me and Eddie stayed at the ibis last year, which is at the big roundabout just as you come into Wellingborough, think it had a pub/restaurant just across from it as well. Was decent enough and the car park was a good size as well.

[Craig]

Yeah I'm in, although I've already booked the Premier Inn months ago.... :)

[Eddie_JCW]

I'm in too :thumbs up: and as Andrew has mentioned the Ibis was decent enough.

[EcosseGP]

Yeah I've stayed at the ibis before and think that'll be the one for us now ... Most of the GP gang meet for breakfast at McDs next door so we'll be in good company. There's a good pub opposite too so we'll not be stuck for food or drink ... think it lacks an outside tap but I just used the bath last time !!!

[Eddie_JCW]

Davy it's going too far now :laugh: I mean a room next to the fire escape which takes you to your car is one thing but the GP in the bath... You need help!! :smilewinkgrin:

[EcosseGP]

PMSL ... Aye good Eddie you're quick this morning ! You're a fine one to talk about baths .... and washing lol !!
We'll get numbers first then confirm on the hotel

[Eddie_JCW]

Lol! Oh... You have a point PMSL and to be fair if I could get the whole car in I probably would :p

Today's reply to the email asking WTF is happening with the booking procedure for M.I.T.P. '15 which I sent on Saturday:

"Hi Pete,

Many thanks for your e-mail which I have passed on to the Event Manager with your concerns. We are in the process of setting up the websites so that bookings can be made and will be in touch with all of the clubs asap.

Best wishes,

Sue Loy"

4. Andrew £8
5. Craig. £8 (paid)

Evening all. The hotel of MITP has finally been negotiated and booked. The best price I could get for the rooms this year was £65 which isn't too bad compared with previous years. We are a wee bit further out (23 miles) but will be altogether and I'm sure we'll all be keen to get up and get there so that shouldn't be too much of a hassle.
I've updated post 23 with the hotel and ticket list costs accordingly.
William could you get in touch with Eddie on FB and just let him know please ... Thanks.

Well got to say that Kelsey Publishing are living up to the disaster they have been with Modern MINI. Still not had passes and tickets and apparently away to get sent out over next couple of days recorded delivery. Nightmare for me as I'm away all week at the moment but I'll sort something out one way or another. They're not even going to the event as they have "priorities" at another event at Rockingham that day. How can such a big company make such a big mess.

Morning all,

As most know Davy is busy entertaining this week but before he went radio silence I had a discussion with him about the convoy down. As usual we would like to get down around mid afternoon (like MMM) to get the cars sorted and then chill out with a couple of beverages...

So based on the people going I would suggest myself and Davy will pick up Andrew at Hamilton @.0800hrs (as we did the last time) on the move and then meet the Edinburgh crew at Abington Services around 0830hrs. We will leave there around 0845hrs.

Should be about a 5 hour drive down to the hotel without stops so with stops we should be down at the back of 2 barring any holdups etc.

That sound ok for everyone ?

Excited yet ? :)

I thought the plan was to meet at Pete's on the way down?

Apart from that fine by us

[DigitalLemming]

Yep that works for me :thumbs up:

I didn't know anything about that William - I must have been away on holiday when that was discussed. That would mean going down the A1M then ?

[CiderFex]

You're all welcome at mine for a rest break if needed.
I live 3 miles from Jct 34 of the A1 which is the first junction after the A1 passes under the M18, a distance of 7 miles.
Your hotel is 85 miles from mine and about 1h 37m time wise.
The house is still a mess but it's open to all friends when needed.
There is off-road parking for about 20 cars, 30+ if you park on the rear lawn.

...enjoy the journey.

[Eddie_JCW]

We could meet at Abington, head to Tebay (lovely stop for breakfast) back up to the A66 via the A685 head across to A1 down to Pete's and then in convoy to the hotel it's an idea :)

[DarnShiv]

I am travelling down on Friday to see the family. I am then heading to Peterborough on Sat morning and will target getting to the hotel mid afternoon.

Pete, I will pop in for coffee somewhere between 2 and 3ish, if that is still OK.

That's fine Daryl.

OK, after a small conference we have decided to make a wee change to the convoy. We will all meet at Musselburgh Services at the end of the bypass at 0830hrs and leave shortly thereafter heading down the A1. That way we can meet up with our Brother from't Yorkshire ;). If there is a problem, tell William.... Lol

Just a suggestion and feel free to tell me to shoosh but its less miles for everyone especially Andrew if we go via M74, M6, A66, A1

Just wanted to add a quick thank you to Davy for organising not only the tickets but also the hotel as well for us all, very much appreciated and despite Kelsey Publishing's best efforts all went smoothly :thumbs up:

I'm sure I speak for everyone there this weekend when I say we had a great time, the weather was certainly a big improvement over last years torrential downpours. The two years couldn't have been any more different and I'm delighted that I got the proper MITP experience this year, even if I decided not to take to the strip, more than happy being a passenger with the Eddies, thanks again guys.

From the moment we set off on the Saturday from Musselburgh to when my wheels finally stopped rolling last night I had a great weekend, full of the usual laughs, good food and most importantly great friends. NMS at it's best :) Could have done without the stopping distance test on the A1, my undies survived unscathed, not sure William and Craig can say the same :lol:

A special mention of course to Pete for welcoming us all to his new house, we might have taken a slightly longer diversion than planned but all was well in the end and the food and juice was welcome after the long drive. The house looks great and I'm sure you'll have many happy years there.

The show itself is a must see, totally different to MMM, SCS or BMS with the strip taking a lot of the attention, it was great to watch Craig, Davy and the 2 Eddies blasting down (along with the GP boys), you never know with a few changes to mine I may well join you next year, reckon I'd do the stall of shame on at least 1 run though :p As usual lots of shops to buy nice stuff from, but I managed to resist this time, saving my money for some ideas I have ;)

Before we knew it, it was time to head home, Davy briefly suggesting I led the way but I'm sure the heat and excitement of the day must have got to him! So sensibly Eddie took the lead to the motorway :)

I'm already looking forward to BMS (http://newminiscotland.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?26028-Big-MINI-Show-13th-September-2015) in 4 weeks times, I'm sure the usual faces will be there and it would be great to see some new ones as well, if you've never done a show come along it's a great weekend. Of course we are defending our Best Club Stand title so even more reason for a great turnout.

I'm in danger of a Davy style war and peace post here so I'll shut up now!

Another great weekend with GPUKOC & NMS.
It was nice to travel down in a convoy with NMS as opposed to my usual flying solo routine I normally endure to shows.
It was great to have you stop o'er at the new pad to let you stretch your legs and have a few snacks to fuel yourselves back up.
The banter was top notch as always.
Here are the few pics that I did manage to take inbetween all the chatting.

Roll on B.M.S.
:)

Looks like you guys had another fantastic weekend and the weather was great. I would love to do MITP but we were 6500ft up in the Alps with the Irish band. Roads were as good as Stelvio so it was a pity we were on a bus and not a Mini. Quick photo attached.
