How to get to great yarmouth
strapping young lad:
my wife needs to get to great yarmouth from barford, which is near warwick.
i see the a46 to coventry then down the m6 and join the a14 is easiest
anyone know an easier route and how long it would take from the m6 to great yarmouth
her and her mates are on a wee up.. erm i mean get-together! ;)

Do the route finder on there, gives full distance and time it takes etc..... and warns of traffic blackspots.

The AA is wrong. They have forgotton to take into account the van doing 33.7mph and spewing out black diesel soot up the A11 which you will be stuck behind.....
