No the SL9 postcode on the McDonalds website is wrong!!!

Here's a map

Basically you come off the A40 at the Denham junction and follow the sign to Uxbrige and it's about a half a mile after the roundabout on the right. Near the Crown and treaty pub (UB8 1LU) The Swan and Bottle pub (UB8 1LZ) and the Galaxy kebab place (don't know the post code!! )

Default Voting for Bed!

Hi Guys!

This thing is really taking off hey? I can confirm that I will join you guys at the Ace AFTER the tunnel cruise, as I will be havng an extended session in bed that Sunday morning.

Basically, I wont be cruising, I'll be snoozing.

But I will make the effort to get up and have some brekkie at the Ace for when you get back, around 2pm?

Yes the other Sunday was fun. Scoobnov I managed to keep my eyes open throughout the whole thing, just! It was a blast.

Nice to meet Scrappy Do too, nice guy and a nice motor and absolutely solid round those bends, very impressive.

Funnily enough met him again last Friday night driving through my part of the World, sheer coincidence.

Dont remember any smoke from that day, certainly not burning rubber? Was it us?

Anyway, im sure you guys will have fun on Sunday, you can tell me all about it later.

Asif

Pedro72: I trust you will make a good job of it, take all the wheels of and clean the insides of all the alloys.

Don’t want to be cruising with nothing less than showroom polished Scooby’s

Anyway how did you get all that red over your charcoal coloured car, did ya drive through a strawberry patch or something ?

Sounds confusing Well, we've got until the weekend to sort it. I thought one of them looked a little far out.

I think its going to take me 2 days to clean all the salt s##t off my car.
Looks like a very early start for you then, Pete.

Anyway how did you get all that red over your charcoal coloured car...
Red Mica is definitely the best colour on a scoob, clean or dirty.

The one on oxford road

There is a McDonalds on Oxford Road which is shown on the map. They must not have updated their website or something, even yell.com doesn't show it. If you go down that road you CANNOT miss it, it is a 2 minute drive (if that) from the one on the high street.

The Pub used to be called the Wagon and Horses or something like that. Do you know the 2 petrol stations on that road?? It is right next to them. Get on that road and you won't miss it.
