I thought everyone else was going with wives.Woots said:
I'm close enough for that too, but I want to have a pint or two on Saturday evening and don't want to abstain just to drive back home.Woots said:i actually dont need one though cos i ll kip at my mums house
Anyway if you bring the puncture repair kit, I'll unpack 'Rachel'
The chances of anyone coming from Mars are millions to one they say...
Ok, who around here has blue paint on their hands? 
I'm a definate for the Saturday drive, don't need a room.
Yup, not selling the M unless I see a perfect M coupe at a steal of a price. Although I keep thinking why bother, I just have to hope we get some more sun this year and a lot less hayfever.
LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NORTH WALES WEEKEND
Just to give you some idea of what you might expect during the weekend. I appreciate some of you who know North Wales will want to go off and do your own thing, but for others it may be a case of a first visit or would just like to drive in a group and get to know other members of the forum. So I will be doing a guided tour of North Wales on the Saturday & Sunday. As follows
Saturday 23rd March 2013. Meet in the lay by opposite Swallow Falls Hotel 9.30ish for 10am drive
Milage around 200 miles
Time 6/7 hrs But depending on the amount of photographs taken, we can cut short to suit, to check in at B&B around 5/6pm
EVENING MEAL 7/8pm
I can highly recommend the Royal Oak in the village and I could organise it, that we sit together if we would like?

Slight change of plan for me as I'll come over Friday evening and stay 2 nights - driving on both Sat & Sun. Dinner required for Saturday evening.
Might have a friend who wants to come too - with his CSL - but I'll have to wait & see whether they want their own room or are happy to share, and whether they can get a weekend pass from the other half.

Ok put me down as a defiant. I will drive up Saturday so will only need a room for Saturday night. I don't mind sharing if some else wants too. Or I will have my own. Can I arrange to meet up with you when you have lunch. I don't fancy a really early start. It's going to take a while getting there from Oxford.

No longer than me and a few others and I know Herrminator lives in Darlington which is another 100 miles further than me.
Get yourself out of bed in the morning
Plus you have a fantastic drive from Oxford, up through mid Wales especially early in the morning no traffic
