It’s Friday, the weather is holding.... is anyone up for a blat about? Nem.....

Hi all, looking at buying a sports car (weekend/track use) that fits in my tiny single garage and a 7-style car fits the bill. Obviously Westys have a good reputation and a fantastic enthusiast following so I’m keen to get involved. Not looking to buy new and I’m after something that I can work on with my son to teach him some mechanics so in the market for an unfinished project or cheap second-hand car (old/needs renovation maybe?). I’m a mechanical engineer by trade (time served) and so fixer-uppers, failed engines etc are not an issue. If anyone has any advice or knows of a car for sale that might fit the bill please let me know - I’m based in Warwickshire. thanks in advance

Hi Just to let everyone know its the Warwickshire Area Chrismas Meal will be held on 12th December 2013 ( 2nd Thursday of the Month ).

If you can let me know if your planning on attending and if you have any meal preference ASAP. Then once I have potential numbers I will have a siutable location booked by the end of October. Be safe and see you soon. Steve

Hi, At last months meeting we discussed the location and date for the Warwickshire Christmas Meal. The attendees came to the conclusion that they would like to go to the "Cafe Taraminds" : Cafe Tamarinds 376 Kenilworth Road Balsall Common CV7 7ER Tel. 01676 533308 The decision was made that it was probable better to do the Christmas Meal on the 2nd Thursday of December ( 13/12/12). This was because they thought that the 20th December was a little to close to Christmas. We are planning to get there and start eating around 7:30pm . If you can let me know if you want to attend then I'll book the seats next week. Regards, Steve Attending 16 People : - Steven Mead Noi Mead Chris Lund Rebecca Gilbert Andrew Hilbert Martin Basford Justin Lever Geoff Hall Stephen guest Sarah guest Andrew Chipman Mark Williams Derek Pointon Lisa Pointon Scott Young Hazel Young Maybe :- Belloboss Apologies :- Steve "Harry" Potter Simon Owen
