Shirley/Solihull Meeting SUNDAY 19th OCTOBER 11am

[TVRJAS]

Continued From http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

The date is now set for Sunday 19th October at 11am.

For those that entered YES or ANY for this date on the old thread I have entered your details,however if it is not suitable then let me know and I will remove your details.

For those wishing for the early start of 9am I hope you can enjoy the extra lie-in and still join us who don't like early Sunday mornings.

The meeting place is the new COSTA COFFEE see here




After the Introductions/Coffee/ and admiring the Exotica that are local to us I plan a relaxed convoy drive around some of our beautiful countryside and towns.

Not set in stone as I will do a pre run to see if it works but so far my thoughts are as follows....

A convoy drive will consist a duration time of about 1hr 30 mins passing through Knowle,Kenilworth,Leamington Spa,Warwick,Stratford Upon-Avon,Wotton Wawen and Henley in-arden. Then head towards the Crabmill Preston Bagot for toilet and refreshments.

If anyone does not like the sound of the Crabmill then the Bull in wotton Wawen was my alternative as both have good sized car parking,but am all ears if someone has a better venue.

Hi Jas

Well done on getting the time and date fixed.
I'm going to have to go on the maybe list as it looks like I've made the 500 for Silverstone :-)
(I'll confirm once I know whats happening with work that week which event I can make)

Cheers
Max

Ummm Silverstone or Costa Coffee... Tough decision that one

Thanks for letting me know Max and if you can't make this I'm sure we can do another at some stage.

[TVRJAS]

Added my Brother to the maybe list who is not a member of Piston heads but has a TR6 that could possible be back from having a full restoration. It was due back last week but they have just found out that he has running problems with the carburetor and are trying to source another one.

[R88CLY]

I should have a few friends with nice cars rounded up for this one by then too

Howdy Jason :-)

May try and pack a full day and hit Shelsley Walsh for the breakfast meet and a greasy fry up and try to get back to support your costa coffee session and add a little aural delight lol

May not be around for the convoy but coffee "sounds" good

Alcohol is the work of the Glen

RE: Shelsley, all depends on the weather,so not committing yet.Have looked at the weather chart and looks like Saturday is rain as is Monday but Sunday looks at the moment to have a pocket of sunshine/cloud.

So if the chart stays as it is I will contact you and meet you at Box trees.

Back to our little event... Does this mean I can add you to the chart for Sunday 19th?

Jas

[Loui]

Maybe for coffee, maybe for SW as long as the weather isn't crap

Hello Tim,

Unfortunately the weather is one thing we can't organize in advance and the weather does play a big part for venues such as this.I'm sure i'm not alone,but standing around and then a convoy drive in the rain takes a lot of the fun factor out.

Just looked at the forecast and it's not looking pretty,light rain is forecast all day by the look of things.

I will kindly add your names to the list and thank you for showing interest in this little gathering.

TOO THE OTHERS ON THE LIST.... What is the general opinion regarding the weather?

Is this a open meet?

If so I might bring my son down for the drive.

[B.J.W]

I'm down for silverstone, but some way off joining my friends as I was late putting my name down (on honeymoon)
11am is a good start as I have a 40th birthday the night before, but it's not too far from me and the area is my old stamping ground.....

5.0 V8 Westfield, if I can sort out the intermittent issues with the car not wanting to start until it's good and ready after a run.. I won't put my name down - if I can make it, and it's not pissing it down, I will be there!

[R88CLY]

My car is still in the garage but I'll still be coming even if I have to beg borrow or steal a car!

Rounding up a few friends too- so far hopefully theres me(car unknown yet), M5, RS5, and and a 911.

Hello John,

Yes it is an open event...

The idea was put forward on the "Midlands exciting spotted car thread" that maybe we could have a local get together from the Solihull/Shirley region.

But anyone who is not far away from these area's in my opinion is welcome My current location is Tanworth in arden and I'm going

As i mentioned above the weather is not looking favorable but will still be going,just means the roof will be up which is a rare occasion.

So if you fancy coming along just confirm here and I will add you to the list

Regards Jas

[Polariz]

Not bad numbers, looking good!
