[Dick Dastardly]

i might be going just for a look around and gawp at the aerials ,not sure where the new place is ,as i've only ever been too the old sports centre which was easy to find .

 

Me niether Steve but as Andrew lives there he should know.We could all meet up prior if you would like? Somewhere easy to find then Andrew could show us the way.Any idea of the timings?

well doors open at nine ,so a meet at say 8.30+ in the carpark , if not someware not too faraway .seems after a look see on google maps i'll be leaving jnc 3 m42 and taking the A435 then then off at washford mill ,or if i miss that then it'll studly & back up the b4093 to washford drive and then follow signs to sports centre .my new car (nissan quash-qui ,n-tec) does come with a sat-nav ,so it'll be my first time using it (its normally switched off) to guide me there .

The vintage show used to be held at the old Abbey Sport Ground which is off the A441 Alvechurch Highway.

 

The new place is At Kingley College which is next to the Redditch Alexandra Hospital which in Woodrow Drive. I think the post code is B98 7UH but not sure on that!

 

I be quite happy to show you if we all meet up in the old Abbey Sport Ground and just follow me from there - as it is another 3.8 miles
