Usual routine, 1100am at Asda's Dowlais Top, Merthyr, a nice drive over the mountains, and probably stop of for food somewhere.
Please see below for directions from the M5 or M4 as appropriate. Directions to the meeting point as follows Those coming from the Midlands, Worcester etc Leave the M5 at junction 8 and head west on the M50 to Ross-on-Wye and on to the A40. Follow the A40 past Monmouth and through the tunnels and in a few miles you will come to services. Leave at the junction just after the services and head for Abergavenny on the A40. Once you get to Abergavenny take the A465 and follow all the way to Merthyr Tydfil. When you come to the roundabout at Dowlais top you will have an Asda’s up on the right, which is where we’ll be meeting. Those coming from Cardiff, Bristol etc Follow the M4 west and leave at junction 32 at Cardiff. Then follow the A470 north to Merthyr Tydfil. Go straight through the next roundabout is at Abercynon staying on the A470. At the next roundabout you want the third exit heading for the A4060, this should take you over a flyover. At the next roundabout take the third exit so that B&Q is on your left, then go straight on at the next roundabout. Follow the dual carriageway all the way up around the bend and straight on at the next roundabout. Continue all the way up to Dowlais top and you will come to another roundabout and you will see Asda’s right opposite you. -------------  
Retro is the way forward..... |

Well seeing as it was me and Steve who started the Welsh meets, it would be rude of me not to attend!! It would be like inviting guests around for dinner, and then buggering off out ! -------------

Actually, that sounds like a good idea!

Now that's not nice 
How many do you get to these meets - I can't come in October, but the racing session is coming to an end - for me! (phew I'm knackered) - so maybe soon???  ------------- Cats know your every thought. But don't care. |

We had a great turn out at the last meet, and quite literally all sorts of cars, I think about 15 cars turned up at the last one, we had a very nice E28, and a newer E39, 2 E36 evo's, my E30, a cecotto, a Sport evo, a variety of E36's, and PC Plod in his new 530d!

OK - sounds good - keep me 'posted' and maybe I'll be able to turn up next time - which do you want? The E30 M3 or the E30 318is ?? or maybe if I can persuade SWMBO both!------------- Cats know your every thought. But don't care. |
