A few of you have mentioned concerns over B/H traffic, and as the forecast is for good weather, the A149 coast road from Kings Lynn to Hunstanton and onto Wells can be busy, so here is my advice as a local to avoid this and get to Briarfields the easy way.

From Kings Lynn take the A148 toward Fakenham. Just past Hillington, turn left on the B1153 through Flitcham, Great Bircham then Docking till you come to the T junction at Brancaster. Turn left onto the A149 and Briarfields is just along on the right.

These roads are good quality and never too busy. It’s about 20 miles and 30 mins from Kings Lynn. See u all there.

Oooo... I wonder if @StuartW is available to bring the GT4 over?

Sadly not, the car is away for some re-commissioning before it let it loose on the road and I don't think that it will be back until June.
I was hoping to come along to this one but I have a lunch in Fulbeck that day and as of yesterday, I also have a huge crack in my Stradale windscreen so I don't know how quickly that can get fixed. If anything changes though, I'd love to get along there - it's not often that a get together starts with a PE postcode!

That's very good advice and a nice drive, it's the way I usually go to the coast. In fact from where I live I sometimes miss King Lynn altogether and head across country to Downham Market through to Hillington

Final reminder for anyone thinking about attending tomorrow.

Maserati’s, coffee, and brunch baps in the company of your fellow SM mates... what could be better?

Well, it’s on the beautiful Norfolk coast and I’ve even laid on sunny dry weather and 18c so what are you waiting for?

If you are concerned over B/H traffic, I’m a local and have a route below that avoids this and gets you to Briarfields the easy way. See u there @ 10.00 onwards! PE31 8BB

Have fun everyone - my Stradale screen won't be replaced until next Tuesday and the Trofeo car is not quite ready sadly. Next time though for sure!

I'd hoped to join this but tomorrow is jab parte the second, 'unfortunately'.

Have a very good time, everyone.

I hope they don't make too many bacon rolls. They are dropping like flies.
I’m hoping a few more turn up tomorrow as a last minute decision. I think we have 7 cars confirmed including a GT40, Strad and a Testarossa plus 4 other Masers and some with passengers, so I’ve told the hotel 10 to 12 people as an estimate. They are happy with that and looking forward to hosting us.

A lovely venue at the coast on a sunny and warm Saturday morning..... I can do no more!

Indeed! Had we not been out tomorrow night, I probably would have booked somewhere and screw it!
