Hmm could do, how about doing something around the beginning of November - a year after the first officially organised UK 300 mania meet?

I'm sure Mrs Cornholio and Rory would quite enjoy a run out to Stondon. Good stuff.

MK for some roundabout action would be good.

I'm edging towards Stondon more than Mk , 1) because we have already done MK and I cant think of much to do here in November and 2) Stondon is a nice little museum with quite a variety of exhibits and its own car
park.Please add your vote to the poll
I would also like to propose Sunday 6th of November as a possible date

Date sounds good, I voted for Stondon, simply because we've done the MK thing before.

Indeed, count me in, one way or another I'll be there. The Stondon Transport Museum sounds interesting, been to the Coventry Museum, which was good, saw the record breaking Thrust 2. MK was good, but as we only meet a few times each year, somewhere different would be a good idea.

I'm keen for the meet, I really think we should get to Beaulei at some point though, it's hoooooooooge. Out of the above, I havn't been to either museum, so I'm not going to vote as it would bias it one way or 'tother!

Cheeky g*t! I will vote for the above, else it looks like I don't want to come... now... which looks best and is closer to Southampton, as I should be there again by then..
