Woohoo! The weather is looking better too - although still a small chance of some rain up to 1pm.

Might need hat and suntan lotion for this one 8)

The "feels like" temps are typically 2-3 degrees higher than on the chart too!

Meet at Tesco Extra at Addlestone to depart PROMPTLY at 9.15am. It has a very large car park and should be empty as the store doesn't open until 10am. The store is just 6 minutes from Junction 11 of the M25.
Just a word of warning - not sure if anybody's checked it but a lot of Supermarkets have Parking Restrictions (even to 10 or 15 minutes) limited to "Customers Only". By definition - *if the shop is closed - you cannot be a Customer*...
I *don't* know if this applies to Tesco in general or this particular Tesco - but if somebody is nearby and can check the signage / Ts&Cs would be useful...

Joe keeps getting caught by these as he goes for impromptu (albeit midnight) Car meets - just SOOO many £60 invoices / Parking Charges :(

I can't see anything about their Car Park terms on their website https://www.tesco.com/store-locator/add ... ation-road :(
I’m working in Weybridge and Chertsy tomorrow, so can pop in and check the signage.

I can't see any practical problem with that. It says no parking for non-customers in the small print, but a few of us will get fuel I expect, so how are they to know if you get fuel or not?

Plus, I am a regular customer at Tesco, so how is "customer" defined?

Might be worth contacting Clive, as he's trailering the race RX-8 down and might be able to lay his hands on one to bring?

What a turn out, superb weather and convoy in was a lot of fun, don't think I'm ever gonna get bored of these "pops and bangs’, especially that really loud one!. We made a day of museum etc, vintage bus ride out was fun!

Thanks for organising again Malcom
