Right,

Let's see if we can get this organised...who's up for a Northern convoy down to MGSD on Sunday 04 July?

Rendezvous point I would suggest the (southbound) service-station just south of M6 J19. These services are on the route for Lancashire people to get to, as those joining the M6 from Manchester, Liverpool and further north should already be on the M6 no later than J20. For the Cheshire people it's hopefully not taking you too far out of your way (John Shone springs to mind here)

Rendezvous time? Not sure. I think you can say from J19 there's still about 1 & 3/4 to 2 hours travelling, depending on traffic (and whether you stick to legal speed limits), so if we aim to meet there around 10:00 we'll get to MGSD by about mid-day, which from past experience is when the majority of people seem to turn up (except those living on the door step). It'll also take people like me about an hour to get to J19 anyway as I think I live the furthest north

Hows that sound? Anyone interested?

Please feel free to put my name down for the event, I'm pretty sure I can make it. After all, it would be crazy for me to join Gareth's convoy from down South. It would be best for all the Notherners to convoy together and may be meet the others on the way down as you say.

I believe that there is a convoy going down the day before and camping (no references to Rich's avatar please), at a small campsite fairly near by.
I'm sure details will be posted up soon as to where we are heading, and I'm sure everyone is welcome so long as they bring beer and burgers :D

Sounds like a good idea to me. I would be joining the M6 at J19. Not 100% sure etc but interested

M170 you have email. I tried to PM you but it said your PM folder was already full

Mat_C let me know for definate nearer the time & PM me with your mobile no so I know if we're to expect you as part of the convoy. It would be good if you could come: the more the merrier.
