Route(s) are sorted 
not quite the ToD but we do have to get there before it fills up
Incidentally the Bonnie Prince is not easy to get into and not on most maps!
Get to the A50/A514 roundabout, go round and round it till you have realised where the sign points to
, [come off at the road after the Eastbound EXIT slip], then turn right at the next roundabout and follow the road to the right....
Hope to see you all there

O.K like the man said we'll start are own thread.Venue ideas for our meet. Having not done this before I' ll start with Elvaston castle at 11.00a.m. Once we know Mikes location Charlie Whiskey can help on organising a route other than the A52.
Any other venues / time ideas most welcome.

Nobster.

Mikeesingh and I will be joining you in separate scoobies
I might not be able to get there til about 11.30 - but I'm assuming you won't be actually leaving at 11?
Yes you do have to pay at Elvaston Castle...a few suggestions for meeting places, Showcase Cinema carpark, Pride Park or Wyvern, or Markeaton (think it might be pay and display though)
Lizzy STi Wagon, Mikee MY00(and not forgetting Tom with his RC MY01 Scooby)

not just in your mind flat 4 even ferguson admitted the last goal should have been allowed but where the hell did they get 4 minutes for extra time from (even including the streaker).
couldnt believe how long it took to get him off the pitch ,you could see all the stewards thinking "theres now way im going to get him. i,m not having my photo spread over the national press next to a naked man "

O.K thats seven by my reckoning, judging by Mikeys thread we should be able to muster a few more.
Oh and by the way I had Derby 1-0 and Christie to score.£10 @80/1.
It was worth it while it lasted, pity we were robbed.

Neil

South side of Derby may be more suitable to meet up as there are better routes from there.
Any ideas? Normanton Barracks Showcase/Bowling Alley could be one??

Still seems like the original 7, I,m convinced there must be more.I propose we stick with Superbowl Sinfin, 11.15 ish. Leave by 11.45 to enable us to arrive by 12.30 to get decent parking.Charlie Whiskey is this o.k for your route ?

For the route I have in mind we would need just over an hour to get to Gunthorpe.
In order not to waste time on the boring bits, like getting out of Derby, I suggest that the Bonnie Prince Charlie may be a better meet point - it is easy to find and is certainly big enough to accomadate us little lot We may even be able to get the Stoke or WestMids lot to meet us there?
meet @ 11:00 for 11:15 departure will get us to Gunthorpe before it fills up too much
