Edited as time now agreed:

A few of us are planning to meet at 7.15am for 7.30am departure at the Cathedral in Guildford for a drive down to the Sunday Service in convoy.

We'll be leaving promptly to avoid the Sunday drivers.

As always, if you want to get involved, please respect other road users and don't drive irresponsibly. And take it easy through the villages and lower speed limits.

Does anybody know a good route down who is willing to lead?

Cheers

I've been called worse!

I reckon leave the cathedral at 8.00am to ensure some good clear roads so meet there at 7.45am. Hope that isn't too early!

I think the gates only open at 9am but we can get there a bit earlier, should mean the roads are better I guess.

Meet 7.15am for 7.30am departure at the Cathedral?

Sounds good to me.. That'll be about 8:30 arrival depending on weather.

If we're early queing for abit isn't too much of a problem.

Would be rude not to!
I'm on the Reserve List last time I checked, so I may have to peel off at Claypit Lane and leave my car near the school or the refuse tip.

Well spotted! Yep, I've changed to a 2006 Impreza STI Spec D.

See you Sunday.

If that's the case we can take a detour and you can hop in someone else's car.

Nice, what's the difference between a standard STi and the Spec-D/Spec-C? One's a slightly harder, lighter, angrier one and one's the more luxury-orientated and less shouty special edition, right?

I'll probably be heading straight over to Rolls Royce instead of hooning there.

Depends what the weather's like and/or if I have my Dad in the car with me.

Honestly... You lot and you're seemingly non-existent geographical knowledge!

I can't really lead the pack, but I'll draw up some itn/poi files and PM them around if it helps?

Good idea!

I'd prefer not to lead, I've done it once before so its someone elses go.

Neil.

Then if anyone loses sight of him, at least they'll be able to hear where he's going!
