Thanks Mike.

Cheers,


Jon

You could always do a 'round robin' and come east over the other bridge first :wink:

 

[MB247]

Hoping to wax the car in the morning first!


Guess I could stop at the boot to leave earlier, and come over the bridge!

 

[TonyS3]

It’s free now!

[TonyS3]

One week bump!
Weather forecast is now a warmish 9 degrees C with sunny showers...here’s hoping!

Hi Tony!

Now you've moved about 40 mile closer to the real SOUTH WEST, how can I not join you?! .... if there's still room for another Dave.

I plan to be at the Aust Services, but it is a bit dependent on how Carol is at the weekend. I will be on my own for breakfast.

Already looking forward to it - the last time I made one of your meets was the first at Kemble - February 2017?

You’ll be very welcome Dave, looks like it’s our second anniversary then!
Weather forecast is changing daily, maybe even a little sunshine amongst the showers now.
My initial guess of twenty is looking good.

So just checking a few things for Sunday's SW Meet - In Wales.... :nerd:
> Passport - Check.
> EHIC Card - Check.
> Foreign Travel Insurance - Check.
> Green Card - Check.
> Route across the Severn Bridge from Aust Services to Chepstow Garden Centre - Arr, Interesting....
The Postcode for Chepstow Garden Centre: "NP16 6LF" is in the middle of a farmers field...!! :surprise:
....so Make sure You either keep up with @TonyS3, or have the route instructions to hand on Sunday:

Also found a good SLK photo spot just down the road, by the Ferry Inn Pub:

 

[Mugs]

Can we arrange a stop at the Ferry inn pub?
I’ll bring my camera, it would be a good spot for a group photo.

 

[Windinmyhair]

Not sure what the situation is 'on site' now the pub has been sold:

Arr - Yes, The Google Street view of the Ferry Inn is dated March 2011.... :|

 

[TonyS3]

I took a run over to Beachley today. The Ferry Inn is closed for building works and the car park is blocked off.
If you drive past you can get a picture under the bridge from the small lifeboat carpark, like this but better exposed I hope....
For directions to Beachley.
From the Garden Centre cross straight over the roundabout following the A48 down the hill past Chepstow, over the lights over the river, up the hill and turn right signposted Beachley and “Barracks”. Left at the roundabout and then just keep going till you run out of road or drive into the river. It’s about an eight mile round trip. NB Beware lots of traffic calming in 20mph limit in Sedbury, humps, cushions etc.
