I work on buckingham ave and was suprised to see this (normally making progress towards shops at dinner). I guess you dont use this section of buckingham ave then if you work there. What I should have said was it is between the mcdonalds drive through and the liverpool road crossroads I was too busy just trying to get it up and forgot about details

Paul - I'm new to the area so wasn't sure where the Liverpool crossroad is, but I do now! I come down from Edinburgh Ave an turn right there. I did go back down Buck Ave to check it out - at least it has the lower part of the doors chevronned.

I'm another non-scooby driving member. My V5 is a Golf V5, a dark metallic one, 51 reg. (It's a company car.) I don't think I'm gonna stand out from the crowd!!

Paul, will do. Wouldn't be able to make it until Friday at least tho.

And it would be my 'first Scoobynet meet'....well, aside from my bro-in-law (hi Neil ).

Would you be in the 'Grale? Always used to love those things

Thanks Paul!!

Also worth noting that a couple of the cameras on the A404 coming into Slough have also been livened up. My radar detector has been going bananas on this road over the last few weeks.
