Hi Mal,

We still cannot open any of the links for meal choices or drive route, is it just us?

That’s interesting John, as I have been getting emails confirming the document has been downloaded by others. So, it could be a setting on your computer :thinking:

Hi. I’ve been having the same problem as John. However I managed to download the route by using the link in post 1 to the details on the events page and then using the link there for the route.

Regards Nigel

Hi John &Nigel,

I am sorry you have had trouble downloading the route PDF, as several others seem to have downlaoded it without issue :thinking:

I am in Coventry tomorrow, for the AC’s meeting & MX5OC AGM weekend and will ask the Website Guru how we can overcome this issue, for the sake of everyone :+1:

Kind Regards
