Whiteley Village? - more specifically we could meet in the Solent Hotel Car Park? pick you up on the way through?

Erm not sure now lol

Im not actually very far from the 303, so could do what Devon is suggesting, though it would be a strange route for me (in the fact its less direct to get to Portsmouth from mine)

Dunno yet, could pick up at Whiteley...

devonutopia · 13-01-2008, 11:34

If you wanna go to winnall Tesco for brekkers then A303 seems best. If we're not, then for me, A35 is best. It all rests upon brekkers, and for me it's a very enticing prospect.

yum yum!

It IS very tempting - ill have to see, but go to Winnall if brekky tempts you that much!

Plus i was supposed to be coming to the day on my own, but now looks ill have a car full... so i'll HAVE to go the A35 way to collect 2 of the passengers

HTH

That's 15 minutes assuming the M3 is flowing well, which in my experience is rarely the case. I know Winanal isnt' far but 12.1 miles * 2 = 24.2 miles out the way and then that 15 minutes is quite likely to be 25-30 each way.

From near Oxford to Hayling Island use to be 52 mins in a 1.4i

Ender · 25-01-2008, 12:20

I'll be coming, altho I cannot find the thread for sighnup, I dont suppose it matters too much.

devonutopia · 25-01-2008, 12:59

So is the plan for Me & Mr Gritty

to meet at the Shell about 3 or 4 miles before Ringwood on the A35, and then meet up with everyone else at the services on J3, M27?

Sounds like we're all going to the MaccyDs for breakfast, so no need to go to Winnall.

Hedge · 26-01-2008, 06:42

I still believe myself, Gerry and a few others will be going to Winnall.

**VRStu** · 26-01-2008, 08:07

If I can get up in time I will probably be eating in more civilised surroundings at Winnall myself.

We still are meeting there, and Tesco have had your bowl of meusli soaking for a fortnight, so it should be soft enough to eat by next Saturday.........LOL

Hedge · 26-01-2008, 09:27

I doubt it.

devonutopia · 26-01-2008, 09:44

OK. So Winnall it is.

Always gets a bit confusing when someone mentions McDs, and other places.

Trouble is now, I'm tempted to go A303/A36....

cheezemonkhai · 26-01-2008, 11:33

If I do winall I won't bother going onto the M27, if I do the M27 I probably won't bother with Winall.

What are the times for all these bits in the end?

devonutopia · 31-01-2008, 22:20

So, can we clarify the meeting up points please?

I'm not fussed where I eat brekkie, so I believe McDs is the final destination.

As far as I know it's Me & Mr djgritt meeting west of Ringwood, at a shell garage, to leave at 7am, and then driving to, and leaving Rownhams services M27 at 7.30, to get to McDs sometime after 8 I guess?

cheezemonkhai · 01-02-2008, 10:18

Well I'm not driving all the way down the A31, so I might see you at Rownhams. Then again I might just sleep
