Hi guys,
time for another outing me thinks, as the title sugests, the date is the 9th July, and we'll be heading to Petersfield for lunch at the good ole 7 Stars.
Meet at Old Barn Nursery, A24 south of Horsham at 10.30 for an 11a.m. departure.
The 7 Stars is one of those pubs that gets a bit funny if we just turn up un-announced, so numbers please.


And lets hope this is not another bloody wet one!!!

Cheers

Derek

Derek and friends,
A load of us will be at the Brooklands British Sports Car Day on the 9th so you are more than welcome to tag along if you like. The following weekend (July 15th) we've got a breakfast run followed by the Petersfield Tin Hut Music Festival. The festival is in the field opposite the Seven Stars (A272)and is featuring our very own Carl Baker.
If anyone wants details just contact me via my profile or reply to this thread.
Cheers,
Karen

Wow...so many questions!!

Karen, thanks for the invite, but I've invited a few foreign jobbies on this one, probobly not ideal on a TVR run heading for a British Sports Car meet.

Also, I owe a couple of girls lunch out, raffle prize, long story.
Hence, a straight forward lunchtime meet. (was gonna break this to the guys a bit later, but now I guess is a good time).

However.....the breakfast run sounds like a good idea, where are you heading?

Mike, yeah the Essex meet is always good, been there a couple of times with the Bromley posse, I know August is a long way off, but perhaps we can arrange a run up there then?

Also while we're on the subject of dates, there is a vintage flying day at Goodwood on the 30th July, breakfast is served from 8a.m. Thought we could be first in the queue.
Just letting you know the date really, don't want to run with this just yet.

Cheers

Derek

Easy phil..... thought I'd give the girls a choice of any spare seats.

Your best bet is to stand next to somebody elses car, the black Tuscan might not look quite so scary then.

Whats the chances of this weather lasting another month???

Hi Mike!

I'm heading over from Basingstoke to the Essex meet tomorrow if you wanna meet up? Have attempted to get more from our way once or twice, but without much success!

Derek...3 questions

1 How'd you wangle "A-Date-With-Derek" as a winning raffle prize ?
2 How'd you then fix the result so that 2 girls win it ??
3 ...how can I do it ???







sits back awaiting the inevitable onslaught of witticism

Admitedly,it's not always easy trying to raise funds for good causes, but I feel that's it's my duty as a fellow human being to make these small sacrefices as and when I can.

A black Tuscan is manly! I'd be worried about a bloke standing next to a lilac Tiv...

Change of plan: I'm going to the FoS on the Friday now, so Sunday's free. Claire's off raising hell on her Hen Weekend, so I'm a free man!

Bring on the open roads and decent weather!

I've put it in my diary......

I'll be a loan ranger that day. Probably in a Honda, so I have spare seats if you need them
