Dunno what time I'm leaving, but I will be heading from Bicester upto onto the A421 over to MK, nip over the M1 then A421 again to Bedford. Probably not much chance to rendezvous

Why the A1?
No matter where you go, there you are.

I'm thinking about the extra minutes to meet you and Sevy along the way and then some time to get breakfast at South Mimms.Graeme4130 wrote:Milbrook's about 2hrs from Swindon, so probably 2.5 from youNickyboy wrote:Looks like I'll be leaving Bristol at 5.30am.

M4 will be empty that time of the morning so we can keep good pace to reading services for 7, grab a coffee/cake and the other guy there, then head up on to the m25
Arrival is 9-9:30 at Millbrook, right ?
I expect audi will have a coffee and some grub on arrival (they normally do)

I was originally going to meet Jay (Scaghead) in Grays then come round together and meet at south Mims services, however change of plan so will be coming straight to South Mims. What time is everyone getting to South Mims and also departing?
