Glenn,

I am thinking the same as you ........cant be bothered to go to the show.

Maybe a few of us could meet up at Bristol later???

Name a place and time, somewhere easy to find, as I often get lost in Bristol

I will change this thread title a bit too!

Best if it's close to where the A38 is....because when Weston Wheels finishes - thats the road Lewis/Chris and the rest of them will be coming back into Bristol on

Somewhere thats easy to spot with a decent sized car park off or near the A38 ??????

It is Avon Mead retail park but it's not exactly opposite HTV studios

If you were to pull out of HTV studios, turn right.

Up to the traffic lights, Burger king on your left

Turn left

At the roundabout turn left

At the next roundabout turn right into Avon Meads retail park.

You can't really drive past it as the MacDonalds is right near the entrance
