Parisien - looking forward to it (i'd better get in training i think!!)

Andrew - Of course more the merrier - Guys do tell your friends this is an open house, it's great to go in numbers and is agreat way to break the ice, and visit your local franchise who will gladly answer any questions you may have. Sean and the team are very welcoming. Would be lovely to see more of you (need to keep my street cred up - that i have more than 1 friend!) Numbers mean we can do this again, so come on...

Any plans for after - does anyone want to arrange a drive - or lunch, some of you may be travelling and want to make a bit of a day of it?

I'd recommend a drive through the Vale of Belvoir.

Leave GP and head up the A52 towards Grantham.
Turn right (south) onto A60 towards Loughborough.
At Costock turn left towards Wysall.
Through Wysall to Widmerpool.
At Widmerpool turn right (south) towards Willoughby-on-the-wolds.
At Willoughby-on-the-wolds turn left crossing the A46 and then on to the A606.
Turn Right (SE) onto the A606 towards Nether Broughton.
Leave the A606 (left) at Nether Broughton.
Travel through Nether Broughton and on through Long Clawson, Hose and Harby.
After Harby you will have a lovely straight driving road, but watch for the right turn signed to Belvoir Castle.
Turn right towards Belvoir Castle.
You don't get much of a view of the castle from the side you'll be coming in from, but it's a nice drive nonetheless.
Travel on into Woodthorpe by Belvoir.
Loads of nice pubs round that neck of the woods.
Once you've eaten, you're within easy reach of the A52 and a swift and direct drive back towards Nottingham.

Hope you have fun.
