Manchester Area Meet

[Paul Hurdsfield - Joint Manchester AO]

Are u planning a run out?

If so... please avoid speed bumps and cattle grids so i can come wivya!

What is the usual arrangement for a run out? ...meet early, leave early, get back to pub later to chat with the stragglers?

Ok Malc no speed humps  

Usually we meet at 8.00pm as soon as we have enough nutters wanting a run out, normally by 8.15 we're off  

Then back to the pub for 9.00ish for a natter

and making plans for:-

Le mans  

Coast to Coast  

Cheshire Kit Car Show  

And anything else anyone can think of

Sorry...

I hope u guys didnt wait around for me.

I feel crap coz I've done something very stupid.

I set off to the Horton Arms and got about 100 metres before there was a clunk, graunch, shudder and then no drive

I checked the oil level last night and put the oil tank cap on the engine frame. I topped it up a bit and then... forgot to put the cap back on didn't I?

The clunk was the filler cap falling between the chain and the drive sprocket. The graunch was the chain coming off. The no-drive was... heart-sinkingly scary. It's taken me and three

neighbours an hour to get it back in the garage.

Oh well... maybe I will get to join u next time.

Hope the blat went well - the weather was perfic wasn't it

Never mind Malc maybe next time ..............................

But next time at least 50% of the Manchester Mafia will be over at Le Mans      

You missed a good one, biggest turn out ever  

Thanks everyone especially the 1st timers some of whom travelled quite a distance, we had people from all points in the Northwest and quite a few from the Northeast.

It just gets Better      

Neil I hope you get the sump fixed

Neil I hope you get the sump fixed        

Got the car home OK - Thanks to Greenflag - so I need to get under it and have a proper look.   I am so glad that I pay so much in tax to keep british roads in such high standards
