I have made a slight adjustment to the agenda. Wednesday and Thursday are now being switched around as there will be more people with us on Wednesday.

I'm happy you changed that around, I really liked the driving in convoy thing.

My BBQ is far too big to bring - it would fill the entirity of the back of the v40, with the seats down!

Won't we be close to Portmarion? Wouldn't mind swinging by there, would make for some great surreal photos - a convoy of 480's driving through the place where "The Prisoner" was filmed.

Just a thought.

Portmerion's very surreal... altho IIRC I don't think we'd be able to get the cars into a good place for shooting.... :(

Stu did suggest Portmarion. We just didn't get round to visiting it, but that sounds like a good idea.

Could always walk up and train down (or vice-versa ;) ) and get the best of both worlds!

Cheers!
