South Convoy To Japshow

[terribleturner]

As there's a few of us coming up from the south for Japshow i thought i'd see if anyone wants to meet up before.
How does 7:45am at South Mimms to leave by 8:00am sound??

[BURT]

sounds good fella, but is that early enough to allow us to get our runs at the pod?

[terribleturner]

They say sign in between 8:30-9:00, but we signed in at around 9:30 at the last one so i don't thi nk it'll be too much of a problem.

[MrAngry]

I reckon for Dartford we want to be there to leave at 7am.

[MrAngry]

Usual place to meet is the Esso garage on Princes Road. See below.


Location of Esso garage at Dartford (http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?client=public&search_result=&db=pc&cidr_client=none&lang=&pc=DA11YT&advanced=&client=public&addr2=&quicksearch=da1+1yt&addr3=&addr1=)

Be aware though if you are coming from the Swanley junction of the M25 or from further around you will need to leave the M25 at junction 2 then take the exit from the roundabout as though you were going back on to the M25 again but stay left. As you can't get across once you are past junc. 2 on the M25.

[BURT]

ok fella sounds good see ya there matey

[terribleturner]

Bumping this back up to remind people. :D

[gzaerojon]

[Ceptik]

I could be meeting at South Mimms for 7:45am. Not 100% sure yet cos i may be staying in Milton Keynes on the Saturday night. I'll let you guys know.

Nice one James...

I'll aim to get there for the same time - should be straightforward.

Anyone coming from Central London fancy another burn from Pall Mall? :yes:

[terribleturner]

So Cornelius, will we be seeing you on the strip?? I'm coming from Camden straight from doing a nightshift, but to get there to my house to south mimms may mean i won't be hanging around. I'll let you know as things may change.

[letmeshowyou]

I'd have met up with you guys but I'm so paranoid about queueing to sign up i'm gonna aim to get there earlier I think...

[SupraStar 3000]

"sign up" What for mate?

We all need to pay to get in,..... i think.
Join the convoy. Its the best part.

[letmeshowyou]

sign up to get on the strip - I REALLY hate queueing and it was a nightmare at USC.

convoy would be cool but reckon I'll have to miss it this time :(

[terribleturner]

TBH i think you'll be fine signing in between 9 and half past. Plus the convoy is the best part about it the day :p unless you break into the 10's :D

Cornelius - Shall i join you and go up through London to S.Mimms?? May see if Chris W and Costa want to join us unless they have other plans :D

[letmeshowyou]

lol I wish

you've more or less convinced me - how many cars expected tho?

[terribleturner]

Potentially 15 cars. Not a bad turn out i recon :clap:

[Tom]

See you guys at dartford!

[Rays the roof]

Come on guys. We should all go together and get there early. Last year 09:00 was too late to get a place to run in the morning so we should aim to get there early.

Take a look at the attached thread and let me know if you can change your times to meet us at J14 M1 (A506).

must admit i do think were leaving a bit late, what time should we be aiming to get there ray?

[BURT]

just spoke to tony about the ques and he also says get there early to avoid dissapointment, :cry: i'm with ray, think we should be leaving the south earlier!!! what you reckon peeps?

[Homer]

James, If I can make it I will meet up with you at south mims too. Brad (Scooby) might be with me too.

[cornimac]

Cornelius - Shall i join you and go up through London to S.Mimms?? May see if Chris W and Costa want to join us unless they have other plans :D

I'm with you bud. Let me know if plans change, but I defo want to be part of the convoy.

I'm thinking it'll be manic busy this time and may defer going on the strip until the following weekend's evening meet. That still on by the way, James? Definitely need to do a quarter mile after "honing" my skills at Bovingdon :yes:

Anyway, I'll PM you my mobile number so we can be sure of meeting up. By the way I'm in Chiswick now so if it ends up being just thee and me, we can meet closer to home maybe.

[terribleturner]

OK, shall me make it earlier then. I've just woken up so can't think straight yet, but to get to Northampton Services for 7am we'll need to leave South Mimms at 6am. Does that sound right??
I've just told the Polish girl i'm surpose to be working with that she'll be on her own for a few hours and she was fine :p

[MrAngry]

Are all those meeting at Dartford wanting to go that early? I'm not running and I don't really fancy getting up at 4 am to be at South Mimms for 6 am.

[cornimac]

Got to agree... Way too much effort and lost sleep for a run.

Are you all running? James? Let's go at a civilised time if not. Not that I need my beauty sleep of course, but I am getting older.... :( :zzz:

[terribleturner]

Well for work purposes i'd like to leave a little later, but i also would really like to run the car.
Shall we just stick with 8 o'clock meet then?? Multimap recon it'll take 1hr 10 to do 50 miles, which translatyed means we'll get there about qarter to nine :D

8am sounds good to me James :thumbs:

Just looked at the weather forecast and they are saying 17 degrees and sunny spells :woot:

[Jake]

I'm not running Poof. :p

Why not?

[MrAngry]

Poof. :p

Why not?

Oi quiet you :whip: :p


Can't be bothered sitting in the queue to run would rather spend the time having a nose around

[cornimac]

:yeahthat:

Sorry James... 8.00 is much better. We can take our chances and leg it to the signing office together and see if we get lucky... or just chill :cool:

What time do you think you'll leave Camden?

[terribleturner]

OK, 8 am South Mimms it is.

Well multimap says it'll take half hour from here, so do you wann get here around 7:15?
I'm at 13 awley cresent, Camden, NW1 8NP. The pink building on the left as you turn into the road. Give me a call when you reach Camden and i'll come out to meet you.

[MrAngry]

We will be leaving Dartford at 7am! I reckon it's about 30 minutes to South Mimms from there. If the M25 isn't closed like it was last year.

[supradibbs]

i will be at south mims at 7:30ish with gzaerojon we will have some breakie there look forward to the meet

[cornimac]

Deal! :OK: CU then :clap:
The pink building on the left.....
:limp: Can't wait to find out what work you do, mate! :whistle:

[how_supra]

Thank god. 8am is much better.

[supradibbs]

anti clockwise on the m25 yipeeeeeee that means tunel action :devil:

[LeeT]

i may come and meet up with you lot. it depends on which way i feel like going when i get up. i may take the A34

[Ceptik]

I'll be tagging along at 8am at South Mimms too if thats ok. Bringing my little bro and a mate.2 passengers!!!!

See you all at 8am.

[VIL]

Looking to leave Reading at 7:00 sharp so theres a chance I could make South Mimms if the traffic is light. (and get some use out of the turbos...!)

I know everyone is aiming to be there at 8:00, what time will you will all be departing?

If I know what time you will all be looking to leave and i`m running late or delayed then I know not to break my balls getting there and just head off up the M1 at J21.

[terribleturner]

We want to be leaving at about 8 am on the dot. If anyone thinks they may be late you can give me a shout on 07887997357.
Hope the rain stops :(

[VIL]

Oh Right, cheers guys.... I`m gonna have to drive `Dukes of Hazard` Stylee!

Hope to see you there (but dont wait on me).

Cheers

[terribleturner]

I nearly stopped at the car wash this morning after work to wash the car. Thank god i didn't :)

[Trig]

I did!! :rolleyes:

Im goimg up a bit earlier guys so dont worry about waiting for me. see you there :cool:

[gzaerojon]

:swear: i was half way through pollishing mine :swear:

[China Man]

I will be at SMimms by 7:30

any specific point at the service place?

China

[terribleturner]

Good Job China. I guess if you get there early and no one else is there thn go down towards the front of the services/resturant near the exit part.

[Ian R]

Are you working tonight Mr Terrible

[terribleturner]

Oh yes. 8pm till about 7:15am, then off to pod. If anyone see's me flagging a bucket of water over my head will work wonders :faint:

[Ian R]

Oh yes. 8pm till about 7:15am, then off to pod. If anyone see's me flagging a bucket of water over my head will work wonders :faint:

Know how you feel mate. Fellow night worker :help: Worked last night 7pm till 9am got home in morning fell asleep and woke up at 8pm so can't sleep now so will be feeling a bit groggy too.

[terribleturner]

That's the worst part about nightshifts, trying to get back into a normal routine. I have a week off between nights and for the whole of those nights i'll be up till 5 or 6 in the morning :cry: A real waste of a week off :(

[cornimac]

Stonkin effort today in spite of it, mate. Saw your last run.. good'n, but as my report always said, could do better.... ;)

[terribleturner]

That was a nice convoy. Should try and and get the video finished and up sometime tomorrow.
I was just so tired yesterday, apoligies if i came accross moody. Was also the reason my launches were rubbish :( Until Saturday then.
