Looks like we won't be able to make it. Chris has been called in to work the weekend. Gutted. I hope you all have a good day and good weather.

Hi Nathan (and any other "northerners!")
If you want to meet us at Coleg Powys, as Matt is, you are more than welcome. Leaving there around 12.15 - postcode is SY16 4HU, just on the right as you come out of Newtown.
multimap link is http://www.multimap.com/maps/?qs=SY16+4HU&countryCode=GB#map=52.51249,-3.30989|15|4&loc=GB:52.50539:-3.34002:16|SY16 4HU|SY16 4HU

I'm in a Spec D

Thanks for the offer. i'm just trying to figure out if it takes me off my path too far coming from Wrexham. I dont want to divert too much. Any thoughts?

Also, excuse my ignorance but I'm assuming Coleg Powys is Powys College, just so i'd know what to look for!!

i'm presuming you will go wrexham - oswestry - welshpool - newtown - llangurig - elan? If so, you will be driving past the college anyway. If you drive straight through newtown and you will go under the railway bridge, next island the college is on the right side - also home to Theatre Hafren.

Yep Nathan you will be coming through Newtown, it is the quickest route from Wrexham...

As Sharon said, 12:15am at Coleg Powys (says that on signs up to it and on the College it's self) SY16 4HU!!!

Myself and a few of the other Mid Wales Scooby's members will be ushering you guys into Elan Valley!!! There will be a Scooby at each important check point.

As tempting as it is, please keep your speed down in and around Rhayader and up to the Dams!!! We have been given permission to use the "privately owned" Elan Valley as a meet, so please don't ruin it for future meets!!! All rubbish must be taken home with you as there is no refuse service operating in Elan Valley, so bring pleanty of rubbish bags with you!!!

On a lighter note, have a brilliant day and lets pray for excellent weather!!!

See you all tomorrow!!!
