Normally get there 7:30 onwards

From the A14 Eastbound come off at the Fen Ditton turn-off (B1047 I think) towards Cambridge. After a couple of miles, in the centre of Fen Ditton, turn right (the Blue Lion pub will be on your left as you do so). Follow the road down for about 100 yards, then bear right at the War Memorial. Follow the twisty tiny road round for another 200 yds or so. There will be a sharp left, and then a bit further up the pub is on the left while the road continues round a bend to the right. Great venue...
From the A14 Westbound, come off at the A1303 exit bearing left towards Cambridge. Keep going straight over traffic lights etc until you see a traffic light junction with a right hand turn signposted Fen Ditton (I think it has it's own filter lane). Go right up there, and about 1 mile up there turn left at the Blue Lion pub and follow directions as above.

Map is here: http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.c...t.x=6&out.y=10

Sorry guys no can do as we already have plans for tomorrow evening. Despite looking for a meet post for the last week or two, didn't even see this one at all until Mark emailed.

Had a good time at GForce on Saturday though

Thick snow when I left for work this morning - none of the roads through Cambridge had been gritted - which ain't too good when you're in a two wheel drive car Hopefully the road to The Plough in Fen Ditton is clear for tonite...

I'm gonna see what my journey home is like before I decide whether to venture out again tonight. It took me an hour to get in this morning, so if there's more snow I won't chance it.

Although I'm not coming anyway due to other plans, is anyone actually going tonight ?

You know, due to all the "I'm a Southern Muppet and I can't drive for toffee, let alone in snow" gridlock that is occuring on the A428 and A14 to name just two

All good fun with the snow, apart from the rather large sideways moment on the A14

Next Tuesday the 4th sounds good to me.
