Title: Is there anyone in Birmingham or nearby that we can use as a stopping off point
Post by: Dawn (DiddyDawn) on April 01, 2008, 01:18:23 AM

I have a home lined up for my gorgeous boy Dyson, I love him to bits and myself and his new meowmy are a little bit concerned about the length of the journey.  What we need really is somewhere where we can go for an hour or so so he can stretch his little legs, have a bite to eat and use the loo  :shy:  Is there anyone that can put up with a couple of nutters, a OH and a gorgeous cat for an hour or so that can help  :)  I'm not sure when it will be as this is also to be arranged, but if we can sort a stopping point then we can decide the best time for all concerned  :shy:

Thanks bunglycat  :hug:  He wiill be going to Buckinghamshire so we need somewhere inbetween so he's not doing the whole journey in one go.  I want to keep the stress to a minimum as he's not brilliant in the car so I thought this might be a good way to minimise it for him.

Would Swindon suit you?, hmm thats probably a silly thought but if you're going from wales to buckinghamshire I'm kinda near the middle.

Plus i'd get to say hello to you and see Dyson - no ulterior motives here at all  ;)

Don't think I can help, I'm 1 hour south of Brum and 1 hour 30ish  west of Buckinghamshire.

I didn't think there was  :sneaky:  :rofl:  That could always be a possibility, basically we just want to break the journey up a little for him so we're not doing it all in one.  I'll discuss with his new meowy and see if it's out of the way or not and get in touch if that's okay  :hug:

Thanks Den, I'm rubbish with geography so not sure where's where so would need to look for the best route  :hug:  We said Birmingham as it's on route to Buckinghamshire so anywhere inbetween, as long as he's getting a break roughly half way in the journey is fine.

It depends where you are coming from, and where you are going to. I'm 62ish miles from Buckinghamshire which certainly isn't half way  :evillaugh: Probably 3/4s the way. Brum is definitely half way .. you'd want people around Brum, Leicester (maybe), Coventry, Northampton.

Still got to sort a day out yet suitable for all, but I'm sure Dyson's new meowmy will keep everyone posted  ;)
