just one more wafer thin stoneleigh thread M1/M69
Hi all, How many people are going from the north on monday via M1/M69?
There are a few of us going from Leicester and there is talk of meeting up at Fosse Park which is J21 M1. Anybody care to join us?

And you run and you run to catch up with the sun but its sinking, Racing around to come up behind you again, the sun is the same in a relative way but
your older, shorter of breath and one day closer to death

I'm probably going on Saturday as the nipper would like to go.
I've got that week off, but I'm having to do the school run all next week.

ta peeps
What time does the show open Monday? If we arrange to meet @ either J21 services or fosse park?
How about 9am ASDA car park which is easy to find from M1?
Fosse park is a nightmare if you have never driven through it before.

FYI
Collating the frantic emails wizzing throught the ether yesterday it seems that we are on for a Monday run from ASDA car park or Macdonalds (coffee
and brekky) meeting @ 9am
Apparently there is a route out that avoids speed bumps for those worried about clearance.
Where is macdonalds on Fosse park? is it near the BMW dealers?
If you can please post up if your gonna meet just so we have numbers and don't miss anybody.
I'll start it!! Add your name to the list and your ride!!

Yeh, I thought about it just after I posted. Thankfully SWMBO is not going away to the flower show until Sunday afternoon now so I can go Sunday
morning.
Do'h, would have looked a tight t!t getting there with it not open.

Hi, where and when on Sunday. I'm very near by. I'm going early morning as I need to be back earlish in the afternoon.
If you are going via the M1 -> M69 then you may well be driving past my house.
I'll be in the Vaux ashtray with the nipper so can possibly help couriering purchases back to Leicester on Sunday for anyone with lack of
space.
U2U me and I can give you my mobile to get details of meet point and timing.
