Marco, let us know if you are coming from Beds and down the M4, Luke and I are going to meet at the services on the M4 and convoy down. Luke, I know I said Membury, but do you want to meet at Chieveley instead? I'll be coming down the A34 to the M4. Chris (mrc) - are you still coming to this? Fancy a convoy? $\:\)$

owl10 Unregistered O	if you get the chance, id suggest coming into the gorge from the top(not the cheddar end) IMO its a better drive that way, and the roads up on the mendips are very nice indeed.

Into the garage tomorrow to sort it all hopefully.

You may notice a certain car in one of their pictures $\:\)$ Anyway, we can have a little drive out of Cheddar over the Mendip Hills and then past the big lake at Blagdon just in time for some lunch.
