N/West convoy to Stoneleigh

Following on from the other Stoneleigh thread...

Who's up for a North West convoy on the Sunday morning?

Meeting say M6 Sandbach services early doors. Sandbach allows people to converge from different areas before travelling on together. Return is best done adhoc rather than try and return together.

According to here: http://www.grosvenorshows.co.uk/html/national_kit_car_motor_shows.html
£15 on the door
Free if you drive and arrive in a kit car & £10 for passenger in a kit car...hmm, potential money maker here maybe?

It'll be fine. You have to be positive when you go out; "Less of the like negative waves". It shouldn't use that much oil though. Whats Andy doing to it?

I'll be there before 9 with a bit of luck so I can get a coffee. I'd like to get on the road soon after 9 if possible so we get to Stoneleigh well before lunch.

Hucky, you'll be most welcome.

Sorry, was meant as a joke....maybe you're quite a bit younger than me, but there used to be a song about a convoy - quite a few years ago....

Ok, 10-4 good buddy, just watch for them bears!

Setting off at 7 to make Sandbach for 9 (but will probably be there before).
