welcome to the world of fish hill!

one of my friends lives in Evesham - Dave, not sure of his PH name, but he's bound to pick this up.

He'll race anyone up Fish Hill for the high stakes of a bag of werthers originals

Of course Nick, I forgot you were only just down the road..

Not the first time I've lived in the shire, but the first time I'm back here on my own..
Pint anyone? wink

I am happy to meet up when not working (seems like all the time)

Is anyone off to the PHSS at Silverstone on sunday?

Also, next season don't forget Prescott is just down the road. I am a regular there (as a spectator). I have done competition there in the past but the Evora is my daily and a prang would not be helpful!

Hey I'm in Evesham also. thumbup

Never really look in the Midlands region as I work in the Cotswolds and I always think of the Sham being on the edge of the South West more than than the South Mids.

I drive a LR Defender as my daily, also occasionally seen in a Midnight Blue(looks black in sunlight) Porsche 911 993.

Hope all is well with Evesham (and surrounding area) PHers. smile

Too northern for South West and too southern for Mids! I figured Mids was more likely...

Wozy, you may know of an old mate of mine, Howard Butler?

If you ever fancy an evening out, look-up the South Midlands monthly meet thread.

We're currently meeting at a pub about 5mins past the M40 J15 roundabout, so maybe 40mins from Evesham outside of rush hour. Fair trek for a weekday pub meet, but the food's good and the company's been known to be passable! wink

Oh, and sure it's not new-news but do check out Prescott...worth joining the Bugatti Owners Club just for access to their events, even if you never run up the hill.

I work just the other side of J15, so I might get around to it at some point!

Every august there is a charity event at Prescott where you can pay about £20 to run up the hill. You can also give passenger rides. Passengers pay so you get to drive it for free. I did 6 runs last year free of charge.

There is monthly southwest breakfast meet at Kemble. It's a great drive along the fosse

Slinky - Shelsley Breakfast Club is usually worth a look (as are the hill climb meetings, but that goes without saying) plenty of nice machinery. Opposite corner of the county from you mind, maybe 45 minutes drive.

Didn't realise Prescott did one - closer to Evesham now I think about it

ETA: In Worcester as it happens. Good to see locals about!

Medieval,

I see from your profile you have a 400. Handsome car (IMHO of course!). What colour? I think they look best in dark blue,

regards,
Jet

Hi Jet - many thanks for the kind comments sir and the car is in Rosso Corsa with blue hide

Was owned by Martin Buckley previously and was the subject of an press article some years ago and is one of the last of the carbed engined versions

Bought it for peanuts years ago and it looks like they might be coming into their own now as much underrated in common with all four seat F cars

Kind regards

Slinky - I think you may have taken photos on a run out we all did some years ago around the Cotswolds

I had a bright yellow Cerbera back then

Good to see you back sir

I think there was an Exige as well plus a Chimera and possibly a Seven plus a 997 turbo but I am stretching my memory now

Good fast run up Stow hill from memory as well........
