Could we make it any earlier, as if it starts at 7pm, and say finishes at 10-11, takes me a hour to get back home and would be fooked for a early start at work on a Monday

Mid-afternoon start maybe?

Trouble is if we go any earlier it means anyone who works on a sunday cant make it

Or people who have an evening meal before coming out with their family etc.

Thats why in the past its always been in the 7-8 sort of area.

Im sure if you came at 7 and left at 9 you would still get to meet loads of people

I'm in for the win

And despite owning two Evos, both are well broken, so it will be one of the (t)rusty Fords

Escos or Esc Van though, that is the question


Depending on the locality of the members that attend, I'd love to see a future meet back at Weston Super Mare. Loved the old point at the boy racers, chat rubbish in the car park and eat Pizza Hut days of old. Good plan and good on you organising it Chip

Si, the boy racers can't meet there now due to parking restrictions. Shame it used to be funny laughing at some of them and I must confess some of the totty was tops.

Yep sounds good to me

Weather looks ok at this stage - sunny intervals, 16 degrees and dry. That'll do nicely

I,m travelling to North Devon and Cornwall this weekend (Bideford and Launceston) , if i can manage to get there i will do along with some detailing gear if anyone fancies using some they are welcome. Cant promise anything as the timing for me will be awkward and i may well be with family at this time of evening. See if i can juggle it.

Would be good to see you there mate, although personally will be more interested in looking at the cars and talking to people than detailing my car at a meet TBH, lol

this sounds like a good meet so far. Who is going down the M5? for those heading south on the M5 we could meet some where and convoy down, say M5/M4 inter change (just a thought if any one is interested)

Stu, would be good if you can come along mate. When you come off the m5 at j25 you're only a couple hundred yards from the holiday inn / harvester car park just turn off by the murco garage and you really can't miss it.
