I'll be following Trev down, subject to weather.
I'll ring you Tuesday Trev.

Just a quick question, are we all eating together there? or should I grab something before we set off.
It's looking wet so bring something waterproof.

Good point that. Depends how many want to eat/ how much spare dosh you've got. I'm up for eating, but we wo't be there until 7.30-8 ish, so may make the evening quite long.

I'm easy, (apparently) sit down or bar foods good.

See you tomorrow. Dan

HMMMM

Bl00dy weather - I will be in the tin-top if it is peeing down. Dan, I can take Cheffy back to Woodstock if your car fills up with water!

Happy with/without food. I'll see what the concensus is when I get there. Bar food would probably be the better option than a full blown sit down.

Cheers,

Martin

Bar food seems to be the general idea then. I'll possibly be in the indy regardless of weather. Depends if the missus wants to take her car or not really.

Well, my headlights work - pretty well too!

Good to meet everybody - we'll have to do a BBQ one weekend - eh Cheffy ?

Cheers,

You can see a suprisingly long way with my lights too! Just a shame all the people going the other way have even better/brighter lights.

Excellent night last night, good to meet up with everybody.

Re BBQ: One or two people mentioned last night about getting together again next month, and the idea of getting together for a BBQ was mentioned before last nights meet.

I work at Blenheim Palace and have a house inside the park with a fair bit of parking space in a nice quiet spot - ideal for browsing round the cars. I'm quite happy to organise a BBQ at my place if others are interested. I'm away from 11th - 25th August so the earliest date we could go for would be Wednesday 30th August (work and weather permitting).

I know this is going to be easier for the Oxford based lads than the Northants ones so I was just trying to get an idea of how many would be interested. Let me know what you think and we'll take it from there.

Cheers,

Martin.

PS. Thanks for the lift Dan, excellent - the Missus is still telling her mates about it!

I'll be up for it. Should be able to get there on a tank of fuel. Just.
That wednesday would be good, but would a weekend be any better? Just thinking about driving about in the dark.

Hi Si,

I've got no problem in principle with a weekend but the chances are I'll probably be working, I'm usually off on Wednesdays. Although having said that, one of the downsides of my job is that things like days off have a habit of changing!

Cheers,

Martin.

Wednesday's aren't a problem, it's just I prefer driving during the day/when it's light as I can go faster!

Hmmm - food. As you could probably tell at the meet, the car is built for speed, whilst I am built for comfort!

BBQ would be great.

Happy for a weekend or mid-week.

Not sure what Simon's issue with driving at night is about - I thought he said he couldn't see anything after 35mph

Cheers,

Martin

I can see, but only with a helmet on. Couldn't drive around looking like a right plonker in just shades.... Especially at night.

Right guys, re BBQ.

I'm off to Malta from the 11th August till the 25th. Therefore, the first Wednesday after I get back would be Wednesday 30th August, although I'm almost certainly working that night.

How would everyone be fixed for Wednesday 6th September? Hopefully the weather will still be half decent.

Martin.

Should be OK for that date. Just need to see if work related travel crops up between now and then.

Cheers,

Martin
