We've actually got an entire web page under construction for the Saturday gathering. Should be out fairly soon.

Gareth,
this the place for the Saturday morning meet. It has a huge car park which we leave at 9.30 to arrive at Donington by the appointed special parking time.

You can stay there also. It's OK but nothing special. Cheap and clean and convenient. £45 per night for a family room; no breakfast.

As this is a page Liz is creating with Sy, it wont be up until atleast the 20th, as shes away until the 16th, and when she returns she will be doing some other more critical work on the site first.

Like the m100 convoy idea. Shame you're setting off at 9:30am. Thats the middle of the night. I'll still be catching z's. :lol:

Good point I best get my ticket!

I'll be in the Travelodge Hotel at the services so should be there by whenever the set off time is! Hangover permitting...
