Cotswold Drive and Dine Sunday Nov 9th - notes

Phil · Post by **Phil** » Wed 05 Nov, 2008 18:06

Just a few points

If you have walkie talkies please bring them along

Make sure you have enough petrol for the 90 mile drive - there is an Esso station near Gaydon.

Please bring cash for the meal - it makes it so much easier to sort the bill out and please allow for a tip.

We will meet at the top car park at Gaydon where there is the cafe and loos and we will be leaving at 10.30am

There will be a coffee stop with loos about half way round

My phone number is 07939 067 367

Hope the weather is good -- see you all on Sunday

Me too but where is the car park that we're meeting?
Is it at the Heritage Motor Centre?

Gary, don't you dare say it!

Follow the signs off the M40 for the Heritage Motor Museum. Turn in and follow the road til you get to a small roundabout. The top car park is on your left behind the toilet building.

See you there!

Into to the Heritage Centre and just follow the one way system until you see the main entrance to the museum etc.

Hi Phil

M and I have decided that we would prefer to go direct to Deddington instead of meeting on route at Brailes. That way there's no hanging around with the possibility of missing everyone. If it's not raining I'd also like to take some photos of the cars as they arrive. Is the ETA still about 2.00-2.30pm at the pub?

For the record, the weather on the Warwicks/Cotswold border is beautiful today. Have spent the best part of the morning polishing the car as I expect I'll have a lot of competition tomorrow!

See you tomorrow!
