Oxfordshire Locosters Meet
greggors84 - 8/5/06 at 10:51 PM

Nothing happened last month as Dan was away training and I was a bit busy so didnt want to organise something then not turn up.

It would be good to get a regular meet going as the weather is alot better now, so might see some completed cars!

As we have only been to Abingdon twice, we may aswell try it again as it think it is it a better location for more people.

My car wont be there this month, but next month the second tuesday is the day before i go to Le Mans, so if im not to busy packing i will bring it out for its first showing!

Anyone interested?

As long as there's not any footy on I'll try and make it, although it'll be in my CallyT.

Any idea of location/date/time yet?


greggors84 - 8/5/06 at 11:22 PM

Will be at the Boundary house in Abingdon, will post a quick map up when i sort one, but you go down the A34, get off at the first Abingdon junction, then keep on going over the first roundabout, then its on the left at a set of traffic lights.

No football next tuesday i dont think, Champions League final is on that Weds and UEFA cup final is this week.

CallyT?


the_fbi - 8/5/06 at 11:49 PM

Tuesday is the night before I've got an event at Williams but I don't think I'm required for setup on Tuesday.

CallyT = Calibra Turbo (Its not standard but its not boy'd up, so I think it'll pass muster.)

I may pop up if a Westfield is acceptable, but will be a little late as I will not be able to get away from work till 7pm. (It is tonight, isn't it?)

Well there is football tonight, so I think "next Tuesday" must be next week.

Be great to see your Westy, even if its just to see how your front flexi's are routed

If we're talking about tonight the 9th May, then I should be able to make it after i've put the kids to bed.

May even bring the car if the weather holds out

ATB Dan.


Phil. S - 9/5/06 at 07:49 AM

Tonight is the second Tuesday of the month. (See reference to 2nd Tuesday in first post.) I'm confused now.


Cheffy - 9/5/06 at 08:10 AM

Yep, should be able to do tonight.

'Bout 7/7.30ish???

Mart.


Jumpy Guy - 9/5/06 at 09:54 AM

I might be able to wander accross... is anyone bringing a car?

need to know- whether to bring my measuring tape or not!


greggors84 - 9/5/06 at 10:29 AM

Sorry, ive confused myself now, i actually meant next tuesday (i think!).

What is best for people?

Either is good for me.

If its tonight, looks like Phil will be in his westie and Dan will be in his Locost. If the weather holds out of course.

I can't make next Tuesday, but don't change it on my account.


Cheffy - 9/5/06 at 11:07 AM

Chris,

I can definately do tonight but dunno about next week 'cos I don't know whether I'm working or not yet.

Mart.


greggors84 - 9/5/06 at 12:01 PM

Looks like tonight is the best bet at the moment. What time is best for everyone?

7-7.30?
