The A5 services at Shrewsbury (Dobbies) or M54 Telford services are a good spot, Doris might be best meeting on the Mynd like last time as its closer.

M54 services at Telford, they are on an island so no worry about the direction. 9am meet. Will be by Church Stretton about 9.45 to start lanes.

Dependant on where you come from you can meet us at the M54 or near Chuch Stretton.

Do you have a CB? the banter between cars does go on a bit, its worth participating. I will lead the beginners group, I think Weave is dropping in with us, Doris has offered to lead the experienced group (need you email Phil for the overlay) the split of the rest is to suit.

Its surprising how much you will concentrate on the driving, plenty of drink and butties are recommended, good warm clothes, good coat/brolly in case it rains (you can stay in the car). We wont ever be too far from civilisation, but loo's arent on the moor.....

TBH Bernie, when I run out with the Stokies we like a pub lunch. To keep the begginer days to all budgets its usually a sarnie lunch. I know Weave brought the cooker last time and we all bought bacon and baps to throw in the pan.

I will look at the numbers tonight, if any one group all want a pub, theres sure to be plenty out there, but maybe a tad late to organise.
