Current plan is for me n Jan to come down on Thursday. Could be up for a convoy. Keep us posted?

In theory, Steam Packet managing to keep all engines and gearboxes working for a week at a time , I'll be docking in Liverpool at around 10am on the Thursday, so that would be getting to Stafford or Hilton Park services on the M6 at about 11.30/12, which are probably the two best meeting points for Chesterfield departures.

I'm up for heading down Friday morning if plans change I'll let you know

Same goes for you, Paul, if you fancy a convoy

I think I am starting Wednesday and stopping overnight somewhere, should be in the area on thursday.

I'll keep an eye on this thread, maybe any coming from Scotland can join in.

Unfortunately, Plan A - leaving Thursday relies on Jan getting 2 days unpaid as she has run out of hols for this year. Plan B means leaving Friday after work, arriving (very) late Friday night.
Hoping Plan A comes off, but can't say for certain yet. If it does would be glad of some company on the road, but my route (google maps) is taking me south of Birmingham, could meeet up on M5 south of birmingham if going Thursday?

Aye, no worries - couple of services on that bit, like Strensham and Michaelwood before you hit Brissle
