Archived BMs on the Lawn - Sunday 15th June - Weston Super Mare

[CJ_z4]

I am up for a convoy too I will be coming that way anyways --- can meet up on J16 - think there is a Costa just off there - or just in front of VW dealer there, the road down there ...... ooooor J17 at the Chippenham turning...... or a bit further along at the services , Leigh Delamere.
Say a time and i can be there.

 

[Lee]

I have just asked Gaz the same question. I'm join the M4 at reading (Junction 11) the services sound like a good shout.

Lee

 

[CJ_z4]

I will be joining the M4 at J13 - the Newbury one.

 

[Lee]

We could link up before or all meet at one services?

 

[GazHyde]

My son kindly gave me a cold, so my head isn't quite 100% working right so excuse any inaccuracies posted

Newbury services for me is 27m the wrong direction for me, and Membury services is 20m. I'm happy to meet up at either of those, just adds to the cruise

The Junction 16 Costa Coffee is pretty easily accessible from the M4, and only 2 miles from me, and they do take out/drive through coffee too.

Happy to go with the majority (but I do like fresh Costa Coffee)

 

[CJ_z4]

I was thinking J16 --- or the next services Leigh Delamere. Cause u coming onto J16 for u - yes wrong direction to go the the other services ---- I am happy to meet up at Costa or Leigh Delamere - Lee what u think ?

Also what time Gaz ? If J16 Costa ? Or the other services ?

 

[Lee]

Leigh Delamere would be perfect, All heading the right direction then.

Me (Z3M)
Gaz
Cj
Shortie (2.8)

Now we need to agree a time

Any others meeting us there?

 

[HornelZ3M]

I wonder is there anyone coming over the bridge from Wales.......

 

[GazHyde]

I wonder is there anyone coming over the bridge from Wales.......

I think @zedwheels said he was travelling over with the Welsh BMWCCGB posse...

 

[zedwheels]

I think @zedwheels said he was travelling over with the Welsh BMWCCGB posse...

The BMW car club lads will be meeting at the Sarn services Bridgend at 7am and planning on getting over to Weston by about 9 30ish. that would put them around the
bridge crossing approximate time of 7 45am.
Me and Linda have booked into a B&B for the Saturday night now so we can pop out for a pint. Only £55 for the room with breakfast!
And time to give the little beasty a bit of a shine then.

If you want more precise times Paul let me know and i will contact car club Pete to sort out meeting you somewhere?

 

[HornelZ3M]

Ok Zedwheels . Thanks for that looking forward to some times etc.. looks to be good weather

Thanks Gaz

 

[GazHyde]

Ok, been doing some thinking @Lee & @CJ_z4.

Leigh Delamare West Bound services seems the ideal spot for meeting up. It's about 45 miles to Weston from there, so just under an hour at a reasonable pace.

I suggest meeting at the services aiming to leave at 9AM-ish, to get there for just about 10am to get parked up.

Any objections? Otherwise 9AM Leigh Delamare Westbound Services.

 

[GazHyde]

If anyone is coming up from the Plymouth area let me know, as I have someone who would like to convoy with you if possible

 

[Lee]

Perfect for me. Will see you at those services at 9. P.S you will hear me before seeing me.

 

[CJ_z4]

Yep 9am is good for me - i will be there before that - any sort of preference where to park ? normally away from the crowd ! - I will be in my Z4 looking lost

 

[CJ_z4]

**Update with list from Facebook**

Christopher John (me of course)
Gary Hyde (Gaz u of course)
Dan Starr

Denise still has to say deff yes but she did change her option on Monday.

And Sion will be coming from Wotton Bassett as well. So that will be another at the services.
I will post this on FBook.

 

[GazHyde]

I'll update the first post with the meetups and the names!

 

[CJ_z4]

Tezza said she cannot come now - so she can be taken off the list as well Gaz.

 

[Bazza]
