I feel that we should each, in his or her own way, take a little time to quietly contemplate those who went before us. Those like the original poster Che6mw, Tangoman and Smirnoff. The pioneers who tirelessly and without thought of their own wellbeing struggled in the early days to make possible what we will enjoy in 26 days time. Who knows where they are or even if they are still alive

I propose a toast when we meet. to 'Our Forefathers'.

Excuse me, I have something in my eye.

thanks for the email Blib! Can't believe after 2 years we (well, I take no credit for the hard work put in to getting the ball rolling) are having a meet in my neck of the woods. Count me in with a less than Pistonhead car (a Toyota Corolla) unless work stops play.

(I'm che6mw by the way)

Yay!

All hail The CREATOR!!!

I shall add you to our list. Lists are good!

Wohoo! Nearly twenty people!

This week I have actually been living and working in London, so I kind of feel justified posting in this section now! Transfered the tiv to its new (and now temporary) home in Enfield on Saturday. On Sunday evening I decided to go out and explore and it was one of the best drives of my life! The first bit was a rather miscalculated decision to take the M25 round to St Albans to try and pick up the B656. It was so congested I went up the A1 as soon as I got the chance and joined 'said b-road from there onwards. The first bit was pretty good, but from Langley onwards (I think, can never remember which place and/or road is which!) it became fantastic. From Hitchin I took the B655 out to Barton Le Clay and that was so good (and, I hasten to add, empty) that I turned round and did exactly the same thing on the way back. I'm not entirely sure where I went from there. I headed back on the B656 initially, but at some point I headed off (onto the B1000 I think) and ended up in Hertford. I then took the 'famous' B158 back to Potters Bar. Hardly saw anyone else 'till I got back to Potters Bar (about 9pm on Sunday) and I was grinning like an idiot.

It's not just the car either - we've also found somewhere for me and t'other half to live, although it is almost the opposite side of town to Whietwebbs! (Anyone for a meet at The Rogin Hood? ) On the upside, the garage occupies nearly the same floor space as the entire house. Is there a 'cackles evily' smilie?

So you moving into Botany bay then? Know that area very well. Always driving down the ridgeway from enfield to potters bar.

Not quite - still Enfiled just about, but I'll be on the ridgeway. Virtually within sight of the NSL sign to wake up the neighbours.

Hope the weather holds out, I'm hoping to take the car out this evening...

Aha, near the Chase hotel then. You may well see me bombing along round that way quite often then. I'll keep an eye open for the TVR in future then. I'll be out tonight too, but unfortunately up to Luton airport and back to pick Mum up. Oh well. Shall see you at the end of the month.

Got there in the end! Should be fun and let's pray for a sunny evening.

[Blib]

Rose5691. I'm sure that I know you from somewhere!

[Freddie von Rost]

Dear all,

I will telephone to the King and Tinker on Monday the 26th of May to order, as someone has so nicely phrased it, eats.

Please let me have any "eats" requirements by Sunday.

Ta ever so.

FvR.

Blib, a previous life maybe!

As long as there is a cooked, dead animal involved then I shall be happy.

HTH

ETA: Any news on the availability of the C-Type next Wednesday FvR?

50/50 at the moment. Depends on our German customers turning up on time on Wednesday. Which would mean caning it down the M4, then the A406 and the A10.

Which would be nice.

You've got to bring the C-type.

Shaping up to be a very interesting gathering at the moment. Might have to document it!

[Grinning]

If the car park isn't full yet, I'd like to pop in for sarnies and a beer? I've only been on PH for a couple of months and it made me laugh to read the original vintage thread. Well done the organisers. I'll bring the Vantage, rain or shine.

I'm a life long Aston fan, can't guarantee I won't salivate over it...
