The Idea is to get away about 7ish!!!!!
O.K. Reality!!! 3 1/2 Year old in tow!!!!
Will get away about 8ish, stop at Tibshelf 30mins(9.30 to 10.) 20 mins from Woodall , and hit Donington about 11.00 if any one is about the same time, see you on the road, white M3, driver sat on the wrong side!!!

Sorry to here your bad news Grahame. I've a glitch with the pc and can't host pics, but we'll take plenty of pics tomorrow for our newsletter. If you can make a meeting, i'll give you a copy.

Floody, we'll have spent our money by then! How's your M3 RHD? LHD has always put me off them

If anyone want's to meet up with our crowd they can phone 07801 905566

Cheers, Mick

Someone up there must have been listening to me....

After years of twisting on about queuing at Donington to get parked, buy tickets, get fed, and getting served at the trade stalls and the bar, I got finally got my own way. No queues on Sunday - anywhere.

For those who haven't heard, the event was badly supported, with an awful lot of spaces both inside and outside the exhibition hall.

It will be interesting if A&S announce the attendance figures.

I'll be most suprised if the event is repeated next year

Did anyone from the NE go?

Mick

Hi lad's, Did get down, met Nick, Kevin, Rag,s plus a few others but did make one big mistake!!
Mick and Craig, had you phone no.s In my diary at work, but some plonker did'nt put them in his mobile!!!!(they are now)
Mick, alway's wanted a M3 but at the time I had to drive from Darlington to Leeds ever day and did'nt fancy sitting on the left. Saw this in a garage just outside Leeds,that was 3 years ago, + lot's of bill's but I just love it.
Get the P*** taken out of me with some of the lad's in the Club (all in good humour ) , O.K I agree it has a 325 steering rack, but it's still fantastic to drive.
Will get up to the N.E meet (one day ) Wish it was this week, school hol's so Nicola is not at college!!!!!!!!!

P.S Thought the Show was a bit (not Club wise) thin on the ground

Floody,

I wouldn't let that worry you. At the end of the day its safer to drive

Jimmy,

I take it you weren't impressed!
