Midlands Convoy for SM3
As Mandy and I have to work on the Friday and we both work for the same company, we are arranging to work from the Solihull (Blythe Valley Park) office on SM Friday.
Can I count on Messers Turner and Armstrong joining me for a mini-convoy and a game of 'lets try to guess when the Southern convoy will come by and join them - oh they've got lost again'?
Anyone else in the area or passing through (M42, M5 area)?

I've flirted with both the East Anglia and Southern convoys, who are likely to pass pretty close to me, but since Blythe Valley is only a mile or so from where I live, I think it would be rude not to tag along with this one!
Mark, you'll see on the East Anglia convoy thread that I had suggested a more interesting route through Kidderminster and then maybe across and up through Ludlow and Church Stretton, rather than motorway all the way there. We could still do that and maybe meet up with any other takers at Hopwood Park services on the M42?
I'm not sure whether Craig is attending - he hasn't signed up yet. If he does come along, I suspect that he'll be travelling up on Saturday morning. Craig.....?

Sounds good to me, I suspect the East Anglia convoy may be the more punctual of the two.....
I definitely favout the Kidderminster/Bridgnorth route rather than the M'way route.
Maybe jenny will make a big flask of tea for us all to have on top of Clee Hill

Couldn't read instructions either if I remember SM1,
What part of 'Leave the M4 at J15' was so difficult that everyone carried on to 16, 17 and 18?

Mark 1 and 2, I've signed up now for SM3 but I'm going to do the Saturday drive with my housemate and then disappear off to his parents' place for some motorbiking on the Sunday. It was also a condition of my housemate coming along that we didn't participate in the disco - he's obviously not had the pleasure of seeing Mark T in action, Travolta-stylee.....
