Ill be there both days, my dad should hopefully have the traction there on the saturday. I might bring the C15 or an Xm saturday and maybe something else sunday.

Still need to get some finishing bits done to the traction and then get it MOT'd, hopefully this next week.

I know vince,

was really looking forward to it, but I have plans for the Midlands one as I'm long weekend off $\:D/$

Well, what a surprise

the boss has said I can have the day off, so I'll be going on the Saturday

Vince, if you still want to meet at Birch Services, let me know, I think I gave you my number, drop me a PM.

Going to take the towbar from the C5 if anyone is interested ?

Yes Steve that sounds good....

What time do you want to meet?

Trainman · Post by **Trainman** » 03 May 2010, 15:23

Shall we say about 8am, if that's alright with you

Citroenmad · Post by **Citroenmad** » 03 May 2010, 16:24

How far is it fro you two?

Think ill be setting off around 9 ish, get there for 10-10.30.

Usually Sunday is the more popular day, maybe saturday will be the best this year.

According to TomTom it's 89 miles, taking about an hour and a half.

could leave later, if you want Vince.

I need my beauty sleep

Mr. Google estimates 1' 23"* which I reckon is hopelessly optimistic for the A1/M. It takes that long to get to Whitby!

What time is it 'open'? I thought that I'd leave here around 07:00 to arrive at about 09:00.

* I like the camera icons that when clicked show a local map plus a photo

1 hour 17 mins for me, 60.6 miles. Straight down the A19 and then A1(M).

I usually get there about 10.30, might try get there earlier this year, though im usually still polishing and cleaning the car on the morning

By their reckoning I could get to yours in six minutes then - I think not!

Gud job i red wot i rote bufore potsing!

Yes, im sure it would take at least 30 mints to get to yours from here. Though we are across country slightly. Im sure it takes me an hour to get to weatherby.

Should be a good weekend

I used to work in Peterlee and it took 20 mins to get there on a good day.

We used to do noise (electrical) just outside Hartlepool and it took about 15 mins from Peterlee (and even longer to get back

)

Citroenmad · Post by **Citroenmad** » 03 May 2010, 20:29

Yep, Peterlee is 10-15 minutes from here, takes me around 30 minutes to get to the washington turn off on the 1231, which is where you live Steve?

Just off the 1231, near The Galleries.

30 Mints !! Thats a serious habit, and bad for your teeth, It usually takes me about 5 to get from home to work

Is anyone taking a lexia?
