Hello guys

I am organising a convoy to Mini in the Bay for us M4 residents. Its a simple pick up a designated services along the motorway leading us onto Cardiff City Stadium. The time we have to be at the CCS for 9.30am so to give us enough time to collect everyone, times will be allocated accordingly.

The meeting points are as follows
Pont Abraham Services (Jct 49)
Penllergaer Services (Jct 47)
Sarn Services (Jct 36)
Cardiff West Services (Jct 33)

The times are quite firm to make sure we don't run too late for the event so if everyone can be at the meeting places at the set time and then I aim to leave at the time stated to prevent a knock on effect (standard procedure with my planning )! The times are shown below:

Pont Abraham Services (Jct 49) - Arrive 7.40am & Depart 7.50am
Penllergaer Services (Jct 47) - Arrive 8.00am & Depart 8.10am
Sarn Services (Jct 36) - Arrive 8.40 & Depart 8.50am
Cardiff West Services (Jct 33) - Arrive 9.05am & Depart 9.15am
Cardiff City Stadium, Leckwith - Arrive 9.30am

With the times above it will allow us all to grab a cuppa at each stop, meet and greet a little before the big day.

spread the word ! this Saturday

Turned out to be a good day, apart from me having a bit of road rage with a stupid bint that looked like she had drank to much Tango who nearly took the front end off my car on the roundabout in Barri and them proceeded to slam on her brakes to try and make me hit her up the ass when I put my hands up to say what did you do that for .

She got out of her car and was all of about 3ft tall and was bright orange from head to toe lmao.
