i missed the m56 turn off cause of the roadworks and no signs , so jumped off at next junction, i saw in the distance a sign saying Che.... i thought woohoo Chester, but it was cheadle so thought oops carry on and then had the bright idea of heading towards manc city centre :bang: - ended up going through a very rough area, made iraq look welcoming

 

[AppleSei]

Thats cheetham hill i think round there, u did right to drive through.......

Puntobloke your car is stunning, loved the wheels especially . I also got lost - there is no exit off the A34 onto the M60 coming out of Manchester - you have several choices of diversion, all taking you well out of your way and I ended up going the wrong way round the M60 for the second time that day . However since it's a ring road I just kept on going and made it to the right junction eventually .

 

[gaz.d]

could of been that lol, wasnt really paying much attention, it had a place begining with W under it

i was too busy concentrating on not getting car jacked

 

[puntobloke]

I missed the same turn but had the bright idea of following signs to manc airport,thinking signs for m6,there was signs but also around 50,000 cars all going the same way

Wilmslow Gaz - I ended up on both the A34 to Cheadle/ Wilmslow (intentionally) and the M56 (unintentionally).

 

[dawn_of_time]

i got lost too ended up in stockport

i turned sat nav off, what a big mistake

You should have done my trick and driven round and round the roundabouts *it was nice senery*

 

[puntobloke]

thanx helz,car is getting some negatives in 'members cars' but each to there own i say!

 

[gaz.d]

i did a spectacular u turn on a road called kingsway or something like that

 

[gaz.d]

yeah helz you right i rememebr an a34, i followed that then eventually got onto m56

 

[Helz]

I did 4 u-turns today, did the last one at some speed I was getting good at them . It was such a struggle with the A34 - coming off the M60 you have to take a poky unsigned backroad to get going towards Manchester and cming back you have to take a long detour to get to the M60 . What a crap road!

 

[arc]

Arc was that you who was driving with your door half open aproaching the roundabout? If it was sorry for not knowing you

yeah that was me! (wheres the embarrassed smiley face??). i wasnt very loud at the meet, ker-nackered - been all over the place this weekend and sleep deprived and everytime i moved my mouth my lip cracked and bled again, grr!

after my car decided to play nice (gaz heard what it did!) i let the satnav guide me out of manchester - then began ignoring it as soon as i got the m6 and it wanted me to stay on till J13.

 

[dawn_of_time]

its ok, you were pointed out to me but i couldnt remember if it was you 4 kids are enough to keep track of (i wish i had sat nav for them )

I'm glad kev lead the convoy home for us or i would still have been driving around roundabouts

 

[Big Black Stilo]

Well what can I say, i got home ok, didnt get lost or anything (but it is cheating being on home turf!!!)

Just want to say a big hello to the prick in a Golf VR6 reg H (something)VRG who joined the M60 by undertaking me on the hard shoulder and jumping infront of me into a gap the length of a car when there was about a 1/4 of a mile of empty Mway behind AND id gone past the end of the slip road when he did it.

He got some light flashing, horn beeping and fingers!

 

[dawn_of_time]

Well what can I say, i got home ok, didnt get lost or anything (but it is cheating being on home turf!!!)

I was on home turf but still got lost anyway trafford and eccles have got very nice roundabouts

 

[surfin_fella]

Only took me about 55mins to get home. And that was at 65 all the way (with a breif visit to 100mph when Brickfoot and Fixit caught up with me )

 

[Argo]

hehe.

It was a very good time indeed Glad i got to meet you all.

For a start, the dodgems were great fun! How many times did me and Nick smash into Pete and Sie? lol. Pete was just there taking random photo's so hopefully they will be up soon

Laser Quest was amazing The question is, who got the highest on the forum?

 

[arc]

i think Paul did didnt he?

 

[Helz]

Yip, Paulie did . Third overall. Dodgems was t'riffic, feel like doing that in real life sometimes (bet you did Danny with that evil golf).
