I should be off work, so if I remember I will be there. Probably not in the Westfield.

If it is dry, and if I haven't sold the XI by then, I might join you for this one. 

If I've sold the XI, will I be allowed to join you with my XKR? Mind you, that is only going out in reasonable weather.

Subject to the weather, I am thinking of making the trip up from Gloucester.

[Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative]

Any kind of car is suitable for this event because we only convoy for a couple of miles and all that is in a 30mph zone. We generally go to this regardless of weather too.

[Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative]

The Burton Car Club are meeting us at McDonalds, so it should be another interesting convoy of tin tops and kit cars.

Sorry Julie - can’t make this one; will be flying back from America on sat morning. 

Have fun!

[Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman]

Only if the weather is truly attrocious and I have no indoor Westfield jobs I can do, I’m afraid, otherwise, I’ll be home, work8ng on the car!

Bummer, just discovered that I'm baby sitting that weekend, so it'll be a no show from me, I'm afraid.

And afterwards everyone is welcome to join us  for lunch at Thaymar Ice Cream Farm, DN22 8DB, which is half a mile from the A1 and only 5 miles from GBS.

Count us in. More food. More cake. Brill

Weather report at the moment is 9 degrees, sunny intervals and a moderate breeze. You never know, Sir might even let me leave the MX5 at home and come out in the Westfield.

Nom, nom, nom I hope they do a Jaffa cake ice cream, ha, my mouth is watering writing this

ditto..

Dash wiring completed, scuttle refitted, new windscreen fitted and sealed... remaining to complete , refitting wipers, cleaning all the rubbish out the foot wells, oil change and clean it

Another year of winter tinkering that turned into a 2 month 'well as that's off..I might as well do that as well' marathon.
