Must have missed the Dino!! Camels always make the kids (and us) chuckle. Is the Dino after Jnc 26 ? That's about as far as we normally go. FIL lives just outside Wellington. Jon - 110 td5 [sold]. Currently Defenderless.

Right then checked out the exact position of the M5 Dino on my way home last night, M5 Southbound 1 1/2 miles south of Jcn 24 Bridgewater South exactly at marker post M5 A 198.5
He is there with his head over the fence.

And someone here mentioned the light post at WSM jcn right by the Lidl Distribution Centre why has that not been lit up for ages any ideas ??? If everything is under control you are not going fast enough.
