I'm easy, don't know abot the rest, thought of the rest area near 5ways roundabout as snack hut there and fairly large space for cars as the meets on a saturday, the car parks in Thetford or Bury would be a bit full, due to christmas shopping etc
Flipharvey,
Will be going to Norwich, round ring road and down A11 as its the easiest route for me and ady

I was thinking maybe the Tesco at Kilverstone just north east of
Thetford. I figure it's far enough in advance for people to say yay or
nay.
Never occurred to me that people might be Chrimbo shopping in November.

Another thought:-
How about the gravel car park just outside Thetford on the right hand side, on the A134 towards bury st edmunds just up from Murco garage
JoeP
Most people will be shopping, whether christmas or not and I hate doing both!!

Sounds good to me, I used to drive past it everyday on the way to work. Often had something burnt out in it!

I put Optimax in mine, and there are only a couple of Shell stations in the area - I have to drive twelve miles to the nearest....!!!!
I know - daft - but I am convinced she runs sweeter on it, and the M5 pinks like hell on standard Unleaded.
i am trying to visualise the Murco Garage - Is that the one with the car sales thing on the forcourt - I normally travel up the 1088 to Thetford.

I think it's now a JET. Just on the edge of Thetford on the A134 Bury Rd. Where the D of Thetford is on the map above.
I put Optimax in mine as well, I'm sure she prefers it. I was putting
Sainsburys super in at about 93p but don't mind spending the extra at
Shell, still generally less than a pound. If I drive sensibly I can get 30mpg but there's no fun in that!

I think optimax round Norwich is about 95.9 so I'm glad I don't use it - if I was still working at Fakenham it would cost me nearly £70 a week on petrol - ouch!!
