Should the location alternate between Saaf, Norf, and middle, or always stay in the middle?

Foggy (I believe) intends to persuade me to bring the 345 down to this meet so you can take delivery of it.

Thus you could conceivably have 2 cars at the meet.

However, in all likelihood you'll have non...............

That wasn't particularly my plan...

It's not perfect, but it's pretty damn good for 30 years old. The bulk of the rust is cosmetic (mainly the doors), and the chassis is pretty tidy.

Apologies to you all - Mac spotted my deliberate(!) mistake with the dates. It's the 1st and 2nd, not the 2nd and 3rd. The latter would be Sunday / Monday... :oops:

Hi

I should be coming to Beaulieu on the Sunday, all being well. I should have a new 300 acquisition by then, so we're likely to give it the outing to the south coast rather than the 345.

Excellent Sion - it'll be great to see you.

Speaking of people putting their names down...it's probably about time I started a roll-call, so I can get an idea of numbers...please quote and add your name accordingly...(I've just put down the people who I know are coming, rather than having trawled the thread!)...

Nah man. Believe it or not, Sunday is Church day for me. It gets priority.

The man makes a good point...that's Sunday's venue.

Conveniently, I've placed Chris in charge of Saturday's activities, so I'm sure he can tell you what he's organised...! No? We probably overdue a brainstorming session about that :)

Can't commit but I'm defiantly not working that weekend. Other half is in the process of moving back from Germany (taking several journeys) so I'll have to just say maybe for now.
