Buzz Billsberry Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 I know some of you will be fatigued from Le-Mans but does anybody fancy a run to the south west to this meet? We could/should show them our Northern hospitality and put on a fine over night ‘show’. Plus there's free camping available Saturday 2nd/ Sunday 3rd July - at The Highwayman Pub on A417 near Cirencester up from Swindon . We could meet at Knutsford services (possibility of another convoy photo opportunity!! and drive down Its got to be worth a go after all Andy Hawkins and Naked Cart Wheeling man made an excellent effort of gettin up't norf for the C2C?

adhawkins Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 I'm already negotiating with Si to come, but I don't think he'll be bringing the Westfield even if he does come... Not sure the South West will survive the Billsberry invasion though Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
studbuckle Posted June 12, 2005 Share Posted June 12, 2005 mmmm, can't afford to drag the V8 down to the SW so close to USA, don't forget our 'no fettling' ban from July 1st onwards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzz Billsberry Posted June 13, 2005 Author Share Posted June 13, 2005 Not sure the South West will survive the Billsberry invasion though Andy I promise this will be a sensible weekend as I don't know many of you southern geessas---Mind u Barry Ashcroft will be there so that could change things a tad plus Scott Beeland ok I promise to be a 'pillow' of the community. Seriously tho' it will be great to meet people face to face who I only really know the via the Boardroom I'm sure some of the Le-Mans squad will be up for it Buzz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adhawkins Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 As long as the weather is good which it should be in July I would have thought! It wasn't last year, so attendance was somewhat disappointing. It was raining almost everywhere except our area, so I think that put people off travelling. As it was, it was dry at the venue (albeit bl**** cold! ) Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzz Billsberry Posted June 16, 2005 Author Share Posted June 16, 2005 Thats just typical tho'. Must admit after driving all day saturday in a V8 Bath tub on C2C that seems like a nice run out!! Buzz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
