I should be driving up from Plymouth if I get my Bug back in time! Bodyshop reckoned they would have the car for two weeks. It has been three so far, and they reckon middle of this week before it is finished.

What time would you guys want to meet? I take it you will meet up in the Maccy D's carpark at Cribbs Causeway?

Yep in the McDonalds near Morrisons, not the one near Asda.

I think it's 10:30 - but don't quote me on that cos I've been away for a few days and it may have changed since...

Hey if this group can put down what roads/route you intend taking, and maybe a rough idea of what time you'll be where, maybe i can tag on the end with you, as nobody from the south seems to be going...

i'm coming from Basingstoke, so if you're south west, maybe you have to go near there to go up on A33, i can meet you on A33? perhaps??????

Shamrockez

No idea - I just follow whoever's in front of me :o

1958 Harry
11th October 2007, 09:25
Well we can get off at either 11 or 12 - we got off at 12 last year, altho the sat nav takes me off at 11 when I go to the mail centre right next to it :)

Shamrockez
11th October 2007, 09:29
I'll just follow you then :D

We got rather lost trying to get home last year :o not got the dog tho so will be able to stay till the end :D

Vickie
11th October 2007, 18:44
Eer yeah we might have to bring Lols with us and skip the meal at the end as we can't leave her in the car due to fear of her a) tearing it apart or b) being stolen!

We'll have to see if we can get someone to have her! Fingers crossed :)

Vickie

Ah yes, I think you're right Graham!

Right ok that's cool then so there's 5 of us, possibly 6 with Mr Navy bug


Ace... see you then guys! Can't wait now. Remember - breakfast is on the last people there! Lol! :laughing:

Navy Bug
12th October 2007, 13:21
Well, I got my car back yesterday, and its looking good :D. Now all I need are my alloys. I am still waiting on them, but will hopefully get them today.

I will ask Ray(wheelpower) if he is going up in convoy when I see him.

I went to WheelPower Devon this afternoon to collect three wheels. Yes, thats right, three wheels. The bloody courier sent three of my wheels where they were supposed to go. The fourth one ended up in Cardiff. FFS! I was fuming when Ray rang up and told me, but it wasn't their fault. The courier is overnighting the wheel to my house for tomorrow morning. I then have to get the tyres put back on, and the car sorted out. If the courier dont get the wheel to me in good time tomorrow, I wont be able to get the tyres sorted, ergo No Reading for me :(

Hopefully the wheel will arrive first thing. Gah, why does it always happen to me?

Ray (wheelpower) may not be coming to Reading. He has some issues to resolve with some new wheels. Guess we shall just have to wait and see.

Yay Ali! Hope you had a great hol!

Really looking forward to seeing everyone tomorrow :)
