We need to decided on a time. I reckon it's a max of 90 mins to the Ace from the services and with the show kicking off at 9amish a meet at 7.30am leaving at 8am would do just fine.
That's doable mate - I've posted out the Northern Monkey Meet for the ride down and can pull into the services for a brew, meet the Southern Softie Sortie and head on into the Smoke.[/quote]
since london is up north to us proper suvverners, anyone coming DOWN to the ace on the M40 cant be a southern softie

A northener is someone without a brummie accent.
A southerner is someone without a brummie accent.
That's what I was told as a kid, works for me.
And how come all tractor drivers have a west country accent?

Shall be coming up from sunny Dorset, not quite Sarf coast, that's t'up north for us mackeral munchers. Never been to the ACE but probably heading M3 way as looks quickest and it's an early start. Hope they do a good breckie. If anyones en route wants to meet at Fleet give us a shout
