    midlands to national friday pm

    I'll be heading down from Birmingham on Friday, leaving around 4pm. If anyone wants to meet up just reply here or PM me.

    M5 services could be convenient?

    OK i've had a quick look on the mapping software.

    If we all want to meet in one place its gotta be on M5 and S of M4, so best place is probably Gordano services, i.e. M5 J19.

    It would be a 90 min journey for me so lets say ETA 6pm.

    Could get a bite to eat and RV in Burger King, then fuel up and go. Approx 100 miles to Princetown from there.

    Pale Rider I could meet you futher north if you like but another RV will slow us down and I'm sure we all want to get there quick as poss on Friday night?

    What thinks ye?

    It's just over an hour for us to there, not quite sure what time J will finish work he is hoping to finish about 4 but never know so we will try to meet you there, if not don't wait for us if he is late we may well end up going a bit later than planned

    cheers for that kam, i know where it is now i remember that flyover part on the M5 and i think theres hundreds of new cars parked in neat rows on the other side of the motorway... the gps has it down as a 4 and a half hour journey from my house so if we're meeting there at around 6pm then i dont need to set of til about half 12 which is easier for me.....
