Jontera: We were both right, you do join at Thrapston, just before kettering :P I'd be aiming to be passing by there between 1 and half past, depending how bad traffic is. Would that be somthing you could make? or are you coming down later than that?? (if so, how much later?)

Where is the initial meet point going to be then coz we got lots of stuff being thrown in to the equation with no final decisions... :cry:
We got less than a week to go so need to sort out....

Is it going to be the M25 services at the dartford crossing???

From the page before Kel.....LOL

gregster wrote:Right SE Foggers we need to get this sorted so we all know whats going on...

I think it is gonna be easier and better to sort one large convoy going M1 that trying to syncronise 2...spoke to Badboy and he is cool with bringing the Essex mob the m1 route instead of the M11.
Andytats are you cool with diving down the m11 the short distance from Harlow to meet us at South Mimms Services?
Hipo..have looked at the maps and for you to cut across to the m1 is gonna be as far as for you to get there, unless you know somewhere you wanna meet us after the M1 leg...


We want to really limit the amount of stops, as I know what you lot (and me) are like...and each one will turn into 20 mins chin wagging about trucks and we wont end up getting their till sunday!!! :lol:

So hows this for a plan to keep it simples??

Kent Foggers...
Meet at services just before Dartford tunnel at 10.30 to leave by 10.45

Essex foggers...
meet Kent foggers at South mimms services on the m25 at 11.30 to leave by 11.45

Kent and Essex foggers...
meet Jim and the Southern convoy at Toddington services on the M1 for 12.30pm


I would ask that members who want to travel in convoy to the above meet points, at the times above, arrange that between themselves locally...so I will liase with Kel, Ste, and Paul (mapracing) and anyone else from down ere, and Paul Badboy will be the liason for the Essex massive...


If I have messed up on the times above and havent allowed enough time for any leg, let me know and i will amend this post so we all know what we are doing...
Need to get this sorted in the next couple of days so everyone is clear, as will be rebuilding the 2.8 most of next week :shock:

also...Jeoh...I will pm you my mobile number, if you give me a ring when you hit the uk I will give you an update on the state of the M1 route as we will be couple of hours ahead of you...that way you can make an informed decision on whether to go M11 (the unknown) or the M1 if it helps..
