Tesco petrol Station, Victoria Park, Turnells Mill Lane, Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, NN8 2EF‎
It's on the Denington industrial estate so there may be signs for that along with other bits like Halfords, Matalan etc
Here's a map anyway. Red dot is approximate location of the Tesco garage and blue arrows are direction to Santa Pod (NN29 7XA)

Everyone PLEASE try get there for 8 - that way it gives us time to sort things out, and convoy in together :)

I went to the Fast Show today and used my satnav, and the postcode above (from the Santa Pod website), it comes up as "Unnamed Road, Hinwick" and is in fact 10 miles away from Santa Pod and will take you down a dead-end potholed track!! I was routing it on "fastest route" and blindly followed the satnav to a farmyard gate (stupid of me!).

Been reliably informed to input "Gipsies Lane" next time to get near to Santa Pod and pick up the signs. We ended up going via Podington this morning after the detour, chasing a Corsa and a tidy JDM Civic :lol:

As long as you get into Podington....On GTi spring day, you just need to follow the convoy of dubs from there! It's a busy one so you can't go too wrong.
See you all there! :P

I'll confirm later in week if i'll be coming if thats ok???

Its anniversary with the GF that day so need to sort out wether she's wants to get up early and come along, or wether i've got a pass on the day and she won't throw a guilt trip on me!!! :roll:

I'm hoping i'll be coming though as its sounds like we'll have a good convoy down from the north!!! 8)
