surely there must be someone on here who knows the area and could suggest somewhere outside of Cheltenham, but close enough for everyone to get to.

avengerpenguin,
Yes I will be there.
My car is the development car and has had the S8 on it for 5 years now.
I will bring the laptop and you can have a go at mapping (idle speed only )
Should have ALS running and the hyper flamer running too

What about say, MichaelWood or Strensham Services on the M5? Easy for everyone as on the bloody M-Way, and both have exits nearby so no problem people coming from other directions to get there.

All sounds fucking boring to me tho mind

OK Steve good(ish) idea LOL......If we dont find a venue by Thursday evening, I guess we could all meet up at the Michael Wood services.

But best we try to find a pub with big car park......or a place to meet in Cheltenham/Glouc area

BTW Steve our special guest is Rocket Ronnie, he's joining us for the evening........not such a boring meet now is it? (and I dont mean the snooker player)

(A) I dont belive you bout Rocket Ronnie, and (B) Who cares? What gonna do, get his Autograph? Met him before anyhow.

As if hes going to drive from Essex to go to a local RS meet 250miles away of about 5 cars

I cant think of any pubs to use with decent carparks, HungryHorse/SevernSprings near Chelt is a goodun but dont think the carpark has much lighting so no good for standing outside it.
