I'll get the East Mids massiv' (all 3 of us) sorted so we can convoy down

I only made Sunday last year so I'm looking forward to a long weekend of drunken dodgems and OP Perv Cam lol.

OH NOES MAN, wot r we gonna du?

Very doubtfull i`d say, Billing is one of the biggest and well established camp sites in the UK, and last time i heard the VBOA had booked the venue every year until around 2014...

Have a look at the site, doesn`t look like a site thats about to be demolished:

Not far away now guys

I may pop with excitement come the 1st July

. Cornish Dave is confirmed to be attending, along with many cans of lager.

Everyone's cars ready or are they looking as tired as mine?

girlracerr68 · 29-05-2008, 20:14

I will be there, definately. With hubby and beers. I wont be stopping over but at least by taking hubby it means I should be able to get merry anyway

I'll be tipping up in the MK4, there's not a chance in hell the MK3 will be anywhere near done!!

BlackIce · 07-06-2008, 12:54

Cornish Dave is going?!?! I'm there purely for the comedy value.

Please tell me we are camping with MIG (yes my membership will be renewed by then!)

tommychimp · 07-06-2008, 13:10

Bumpers = painted.

Magic tree = in boot.

New mats = inserted.

Need some sort of a really major clean. The paint is horrible and dull. A bit like me, I suppose.

callymat · 27-06-2008, 18:42

im going along but not camping so will pop over to you all and say hello

Jack · 27-06-2008, 18:48

Excellent!

What day are you going?

callymat · 27-06-2008, 18:50

i dont kno yet mate may be satarday .

Gaz86 · 05-07-2008, 23:41

any idea on convoy points yet lads?

Jack · 06-07-2008, 09:14

I don't think much has been arranged yet.

Callymat! I saw you on friday turning out of High Grange towards Morissons. You drove right past my house.

**njmchugh** · 06-07-2008, 09:43

Spoke with orange peel yesterday and i understand that the west mids convoy will be coming down the A50 and meet the east mids convoy at Donnington service station M1 Junction 24, then cruise down M1, can stop of at Watford gap if others want to meet there. On to a pub on the way to Billing for lunch etc
Times to be agreed

Jack · 06-07-2008, 09:45

That sounds like an awesome idea.

Fred7 · 06-07-2008, 15:45

anyone going down just for the day on sunday? can only make sunday but dunno if its worth going just for the sunday or not?

Jack · 06-07-2008, 15:57

Definitely worth it IMO.

Fred7 · 07-07-2008, 18:44

how far is it from us jack?

After thinking about a better meeting point. Everyone meeting at Leicester Forest East Services would make more sense. Its easier for everyone coming down the A50 and no more trouble for the EM lot.

Will sort times out and post back.

Depends how fast you drive!

It's a good hour and a half.

Matt! You crazy man, I saw you again! I was even outside, washing the Cavalier, and you cruised past without so much as a wave or blowing me a kiss!

I has been waxing and polishing ready for Billingz.

Even got new number plates on ze way!
