remember this lmao grant (Right Chaps as Gridlock Mikey in the Main NBO thread suggested here is the initial stab at a thread and RV for any Preston area scoobs to meet up for the NBO convoy run. As the A59 seems to be a reasonable route how about meeting in the Swallow Hotel Car Park at Samlesbury. That way its the right side of Preston and convenient for any one comming down the M6 from Brig, leyland etc?

Note : This doesnt mean Im volenteering to be the convoy leader....

ROUTE ??

0.0 0.0 A6 Preston, Lancs
Follow signs Chorley A6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

0.5 0.5 A59 Junction with A59
At traffic signals turn left A59 (signposted Clitheroe)

See ya all Sunday

Sounds like someone needs to give McD's a call to tell 'em to get a job-lot of sausage and egg McFurries on the grill for Sunday morning

Oh, and cone off most of the car park so that we can get some pretty pre-meet pictures

Just a thought, but has anyone got a PMR (walkie talkie)?

If so, you might want to bring it along, both to keep in touch whilst we drive to the NBO (not that we would get lost or anything ), and also to find one-another when you get there.

We can decide on the channel/sub-channel on the day.

Well i popped into McD's at Barrow earlier today, and the manager said that a bunch of Scoobyies appearing for brekky would be most welcome (although you might have to wait a few minutes for your McMuffin!). Bear in mind that there are only around 30 spaces, so please park considerately.

Oh, and when i was driving through Copster Green earlier today, there was a police car parked in a layby just inside the 40mph zone. It may not be there tomorrow, but just remember to take care on the restricted sections

Seeya all tomorrow

Easy... a little generous parking and we can fill them all to stop any idiots from dinging us!
