Bruntingthorpe 2013

Ditto. The prospect of an early start and a day of hard driving doesn't appeal. Plus, as Chris said, a beer or two talking nonsense with fellow petrolheads sounds like a good way to spend an evening.

 

[Tipmethewink]

I'm looking forward to the convoy from the hotel too.

 

[Felonious Crud]

Likewise, should be a impressive one.

 

[Andyk]

It will be an impressive site as its not just us that will be there.

Tipmethewink do you get the room for £55...I did post up details on here on how to get the reduced rate...

 

[Felonious Crud]

Mine was:

Rate Name: 7 Day advance purchase rate *save 15% $RO$, Rate is room only and requires full prepayment at the time of booking, is non-refundable or transferable (50.15 GBP)
Add on Package(s): Credit Card Fee (2.50 GBP)
Total Price including Tax: 52.65 GBP

 

[Andyk]

Thats even better...I did go on line a few weeks ago and they did have rooms at £50......

The very same.

...plus breakfast, but still great value for what looks like a pretty good hotel.

 

[Andyk]

It is a very nice hotel.....Breakfast is pretty good as well......Stayed there are 6 times now over the years....

 

[EnzoMC]

is this the meeting point ? i will be coming up the m1, would be worth meeting in Lutterworth ?


Hinckley Island Hotel
Watling Street, Hinckley, Leicestershire, LE10 3JA, United Kingdom

 

[Andyk]

Thats the place....

 

[EnzoMC]

what time are we looking to meet up, may want to get a coffee and suspect most will want to fill up on the way (shell only of course )

 

[CatmanV2]

Certainly will need petrol

[Emtee]

I've posted this in the roll call thread, but posting here as well just in case.... what time are y'all setting off from the hotel? I'll come there to convoy in rather than going direct to Brunti'.

 

[Andyk]

We need to be at Brunt at 08:00 so it would be an early meet.

 

[Emtee]

No Worry Andy. I'm just up the road. I'll aim to be there for 7.30am unless I hear otherwise.

 

[Andyk]

Is Brunty about 20 mins or so away Miles.

 

[Emtee]

Is Brunty about 20 mins or so away Miles.

Yea, at that time of the morning about 20 minutes from the hotel to Brunti'. About 15 miles.

 

[EnzoMC]

closest Shell I've found is the below link, I've also found that the scooby, TVR and some other clubs are decending on this garage (this will be fun)

google maps - https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=+5...99,120.971777&sspn=0.007973,0.009602&t=h&z=18

is this the one or do you know of another one, from the hotel, to shell then to the place is about 15miles, it may take a while for us to all fill-up

If staying in the hotel, perhaps fill up the night before?
