Hi

Am currently unable to do 10th, social secretary has other plans... but I don't object to early mornings if the weather is ok. Tend to be more of a meet you at... than a convoy person. Round here, lots of the locals are a bit noise sensitive which is why we have noise AND speed cameras on the A32 and A272 round here. Is mostly 'cause of the bikes but no point in giving the grumpies another excuse to whine by travelling in packs...

 

@Martin Hollinworth - you're close to me have you seen this thread?

 

Sunday 6th is Alton Departure lounge - not sure if I'm able to make it this month. Have a retaining wall to build and Sunday looks dry, unlike tomorrow.....

@Martin Hewes AO Surrey I'd happily join some of the meetings, I'm in Epsom and work in Woking. Car isn't finished yet, but seeing others will help maintain the motivation!

Hi All, so based on current responses we have to cater for people potentially coming from Hook and Epsom. I think midpoint is probably somewhere on the west side of Guildford.  One idea was the Beefeater / Premier Inn outside Godalming as it has a decent size car park or Newlands Corner which a few people have mentioned. I was thinking a 7pm meet, sunset is around 8:30 so we can all still get home before it gets too dark.

I think it will be good to establish a few different meet points and rotating them as I feel a bit guilty living so close to Newlands! I might have to drive a few miles out of my way to warm the engine up 😉

 

cheers, Martin

Weather looking very promising for Thursday 10th Newlands or Godalming works for me. 
 

Cheers

Yep both of those are easy for me too (straight down the A3). 

 

I can probably do this Thursday, although I might not be there at 7pm sharp

[Martin Hewes AO Surrey]

Great, lets do Newlands this time then. Both Cafes will be shut unfortunately but I can maybe bring some cold drinks to celebrate our first meetup.

My mobile is 07814 530059. I'll set up a WhatsApp group soon so we can communicate more easily when out and about.
 

I do need to wash the car first though as we have builders dust everywhere right now and the rain yesterday didn't do a good job!

[SteveB21]

See you at Newlands at 7 tomorrow.  Will message you with my phone number. @Michael8 - are you interested?

 

Thanks

Just back from a car meet in bagshot that my cousin invited me to at pine ridge golf club. I bumped into Sammy from Aldershot in his Seight. 

its mainly American focused but could be one for a future meet. Breakfast was good!

Hi All,

Looking at the weather next week, Tuesday ~ Thursday evenings all look pretty promising. Shall we start with an early show of hands to see who's around? Find a nice beer garden somewhere?

Cheers

sounds good, i have no preference for either

Sorry, I don't think I can make this one - holiday coming up

[Gary Argent]

Hi Martin - I'm based in Croydon but happy to travel, it would be great to meet up with people.  I'm free on those evenings next week although I'll be in my normal car as the Westie is still some way off being finished.

Any of those days work for me at the moment - as you say, the weather looks good.
