Okay, so let's provisionally aim for this coming Saturday, 6th Feb, say 10am?

If the weather is garbage and Sunday looks better, we can always jump to Sunday and then see how we go from there for future meets, but we have the groundings and cars to make this a good meet. Bear in mind if your car is super-low you need to take it easy going into Riverside car park. My two will go over there so unless it's seriously lower than stock, you should be okay.

On Saturday, my boy's class finishes at 10:30, so by the time we've got back to the car and got back here from Cambridge it'll be closer to 11:30 before I get there. If you've all gone, you've gone smile

Would anyone have any issue if I mentioned it on some of the local st Neots groups? I'm sure there are others who might be interested who aren't on PH, or would we rather keep it a PH affair for now?

I'd be interested in knowing what other groups are local to us?

I assume feef means things like meetup.com rather than PH groups. The more the merrier I reckon.

Just down the road from St. Neots and though I can't make this weekend it would be great to have a regular local meet to attend.

Indeed, although I know there's a guy big into his classic Minis on the main St Neots Facebook group

It'll definitely be closer to 11-11:30 before I get there, but there might be a few locals turn up (no idea what they are driving tho) and there's generally a good and positive interest in this becoming a 'thing' in time

OK so let's fix it for Saturday 10am. I'll make sure I'm there, rain or shine, in the 360, it needs a clean anyway.

10:00 am sounds good to me.

Would it be worth setting up a new thread with the details?

Some people may be interested in the meet but may have missed it if they don't check this thread. Save people also checking this thread in the hope they've been spotted, only to have a bunch of oiks talking about a meet.

Good call, don't know why I hadn't thought of that. I've started it here and included everyone who's signed up so far I think.

Just shared the link to the meet thread onto my Faceache wall. Might well drum up a bit more interest from a few other like minded local folk I know smile

White Aventador, seen twice in West Wycome and once on the M40 over the last week. Whoever owns it is obviously happy to enjoy it whatever the weather.

Emerald green Diablo on the back of a small recovery lorry, heading northbound on the A1 at J4 yesterday late-morning.

Red GT86 and a spanking new M3 with lots of carbon bits outside Wickes in Letchworth just now.
