Sounds tickety boo to me James mate and a very fine idea to boot

Heaven only knows what I'll be in, just returned from Stafford after viewing a car that had been sold just before I arrived - nice of the dealer to ring back and tell me

Wrexham to Hollow Tree = 32 miles

My house to Hollow Tree = 19 miles

J1mbo's house to Hollow Tree (coincidentally) = 19 miles

JamesUK's house to Hollow Tree = 25 roughly

Nice one chaps, I don't mind anyone 'invading' Wales lol, can always arrange to meet you all up there or indeed anywhere along your route, just let me know a confimed date and we can arrange a time from there. It is only around 45 minute drive from Wrexham and my Father-in-Law is moving up to Penrhyn Bay shortly too so two birds with one stone. It will be great for me as a new owner of a ZT to chat with other fellow drivers. Cheers "Diolch" (Thanx) Jeff

>>>JamesUK's house to Hollow Tree = 25 roughly<<<

Roughly indeed!! I'll have you know my car drives as smoothly as a hot knife goes through butter...

Right this meeting..... Proposed date:- Sunday the 19th of August 2012..

I will be at the Romper Nr the airport at 12-30 (Noon) departing at 12-40 to arrive at the Hollow tree at one PM (usual time)

Leaving the Hollow tree in convoy (Robert leading coz this was his idea ) at ten past one PM.. Or 13-10.. In metric..

Approx arrival time at the Pier in Colwyn bay 10 past two pm... Metric = 14-10..

On route, I will drive through the McDonald's car park near Mold to collect anyone who may be there that wishes to join our convoy to Colwyn bay. I will then catch the convoy up again...

We can sort out the Great Orme details on the day.. But it would help if someone could find the postcode for the Café on top of it in case we have no local guide...

If there are any questions, comments, rude remarks etc etc please address em to Robert aka Frank Incensed.. lol... ...

any questions, comments, rude remarks ...
1) I think the date's OK with me - but I'll have to check with Mrs Incensed 'cos I think she's booking us a week away with the grandkids in August (Oh, joy!)
Is Jules OK for 19th?

2) I'm best following, 'cos I can fit in with the pace of most people - and if I get left behind, I know where to go.

3) What happened to the "Last of the Summer Wine" all going in one car idea? I've spent so much on the car this year, I can't afford to put diesel in it too.

4) Even if you went through McDonalds in the "drive thru" lane, you'd never catch up again, if I was leading.

??? "All going in one car".. ?? I will have room in the back for two peeps who like lil White dogs. But that's no help to you, coz there are four of you innit????

I have emailed Jules.. Awaiting a reply...

OK.. So you can be "tail end Charley" and collect any stragglers. And we don't mind waiting half hour for you to catch up....much... ..

Can't imagine anyone getting lost going to Colwyn Bay.. Just get on the M56 and follow signs for "North Wales" innit.. lol..
