Avengers7 Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 Just curious about how far people travelled. It took me about 3 hours to drive to Coventry from South Wales. Traffic was quite good for 6 in the morning - although I almost didn't make it as my garage door got stuck and it took about an hour to get the car out It was well worth going though in the end.

Lizzy Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Ouch DeeBee! No wonder u were a bit pee-ed off when I saw you I thought it'd take me over 2 hours, but in the end... including a stop for the loooo, it took 1hr45mins... not bad! On the way back, inc a stop, it took about 10 mins more, but for some reason I had to get back via the city and there were traffic lights... may try to avoid that next time.

Woke up at 07:00 on Saturday morning. Parked in carpark A at 07:20. Mind you, I do live in Coventry, and do know the short routes, not the signed one.

lauren lane Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Should have took an hour but the AA gave me wrong directions and it took closer to 2! Still not ages but I was nearly sick with worry about not seeing Bruce when I was lost in the middle of the only town in England with no signs!
