"other" - you want to end up on the M5 then the M42, so stay on the western side of the country.

Go south towards evesham from jct 3 of the M42 (through/round redditch; through studley, through kings coughton)

Turn left onto A46 when you get there near a large BP garage. Aston Cantlow turning is on top of the big hill where the speed camera is.

As you drive past the RAC control centre after M6J9, then take the M5 slip road, look to the left and give me a wave...

Hang on, better give me a shout and I'll follow you down.
