Thats best for us, because Baz and myself will be coming from the M23/M25, so we reckon the best place to meet those coming from Kent/East Sussex will be at J3 (Swanley/Brands Hatch exit).

If we meet at J3 of the M25, how about the red dot on this map?? (check out my MSPaint skills :mrgreen: )

[img]http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c210/chipho/j3m25.jpg[/img]

The dot is just an industrial estate entrance, so we can all meet up and go from there into London. Is that ok with everyone else? :)

To be honest I have done loads of tunnel runs, and it was better having fewer people.
Thanks to Growman, every thing went so smoothly, when there are lots of you you always get split up and you spend half the time waiting for other scoobs, that sometimes never show up again. :rofl:

I therefore would like to put my name down for the next one.

Thanks once again Crowman. :yeah:

ps I am so glad suggested it :rofl: :rofl:
