Cruise to Duxford spring meet 03/05/2015

Post by Davejue1 »

Sorry fellas. Sat looking at the run tonight and we need to depart Ollerton at 6.30 to meet the Melton Mowbray group at Melton railway station 7.30. It will be a quick pick up point to make sure we get to the John Barleycorn at Duxford Village 9.30

After Melton will run to oakham on the A606 past Rutland water to Stamford then will have join the A1 down to the M11 into Duxford. Apologies for the A roads but time just won't allow as many country roads as I'd have liked.

Hi Brian - you could always get a room at the Crown in Great Chesterford - not sure how many have booked there besides Yocky and us. Few drinks in the bar on Saturday night, big cooked breakfast on Sunday and then a 10 min amble to the John Barleycorn for tea/coffee.

Melton Mowbray collection point will be the railway station LE13 1 AF about 8.00-8.15. It will be a quick pick up as we're aiming to meet the others at the John Barleycorn around 9.15-9.30.

Cheers

Lol! The route I'd planned which was pretty direct but took in lots of back roads and villages when calculated nearly doubled the timings. So to be safe were having to take a more yawn route. Once your up you'll be fine Bri. Anyway best behaviour now required. We have jue taking up the slack in me saab! :D

RockyDave and I will be coming together in his car tomorrow, as I said in my PM I've still gotta work nights tomorrow and a 6.15 start for me (7.30 at Melton) is just too early for a night shift at the airport. Don't wait for us in Melton, and we'll be down at Dux about 11-12. Still gives us 5 hours or so before I need to be getting back. See you there..Pete
