and to many accidents

Another idea, meet at Salt box café at 10 am. Andy if you don't mind to get us all to Canterbury?

I'm working til 10.30 on the Friday morning so we might have to meet you on the way somewhere. If I manage to close early, we can stop at Leicester Forest east and tag on when we see you go past. Depends on what time you leave the Salt Box.

What about having a fixed rest/petrol stop at Toddington? Approx 2 hours/100 miles from Salt box. Then 2 hours/100 miles to the Travelodge, Canterbury. If everyone's full when we start , there's no pissing about with people disappearing off the M1 for petrol. Or do people want more stops? I don't mind but I don't fancy a 7 hour marathon like a few years ago.
