Will do :-)

tbh Santa pod has it's own micro climate. I've spent most of my wkends making pizzas on
my mates trailer during the summer. A rare place indeed!

Well come and make some pizzas for us! A forum picnic at the 'pod!  :party:

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

I was gonna make a thread about this (given the southerners have their own thread, I can't see why we can't!).

I think we suggested meeting around 0730-0745 so we can reach the gates by 0900. What does everyone think?
Meeting point would be at the MaccyDs on the corner of the A34/M42.

Any suggestions/recommendations?

We could always meet elsewhere depending on others' preferences.

I just did a routeplan from mine and its pretty much straight along the M6 and onto the M1.
How about meet at Corley Services, between Junction 3 and 4 of the M6, Postcode CV7 8NR at 8am on Sunday?
I am probably meeting Singh123 from mine as he is literally around the corner, so if that's convenient for the others?
Yay or Nay?

Only a 20 min drive or so from me, so could easily be done. Depends on what the others are doing.
