You do! B25 plotter....

And the answer for securing it is obvious too - Gaffer Tape!

Nah, it's gotta be duck tape ;) Just get a couple poles in the ground to tape it to.

nope, I have family commitments that day (unless I can wriggle out of them...). And I don't have access to B25 any more...

Haha, sorry mate, I misunderstood! Yup, agreed then!

Sounds like it might well be worth making contact with them then, anyone know who is organising it? Gaydon or the VOC, or someone completely different!

Right, I havn't rung up and said we'd be going as a club, but if we want to park together it is important we meet up OUTSIDE Gaydon, and drive in convoy. I suggest the pub we met up in for the firstest ever V3M UK meet, back in 2004. I seem to remember that the thread got lost into the either, but I'll hunt down a map. Me and Nick went there 6 months ago, and the place still rocks as a country pub too.

Also, can anyone get some fliers printed? Be a great time to advertise for some new peeps.
