Right, I'm definitely going to make it tonight. I presume you'll be easy to spot at the Park and Ride - do you meet at the entrance or go into the car park somewhere? I'll be easy to spot in a yellow and black Caterham.

Cheers,
E.

Outside the entrance, as they're trying to shut at that time!

If Ewen is bringing the Caterham, then you'll only be a girl if you don't bring yours...go on, then you can freeze Glen to death...

A fat git like me needs a bit more freezing than that!
Also the starship has not been for a blat yet (all motorway work so far...) so I am looking forward to seeing a few more of the shift lights
I am sure it is fully run in after 1600 miles!!

I'll have to bring my handbag to batter you with



Are going to book or just turn up on spec?

[SensibleHeadOn]Maybe not if its all been steady-state cruising?[/SHO]

Does need to have a range of engine speeds worked into it gradually...

Please ignore all the above advice seeing as its a company car

Carpenters should be ok on spec. Was almost empty last time and the weather was better.

Mind you, I have already seen 4 of the 6 shift lights on my way to :cough: motorway speeds!

Off home shortly so see you at 7:30 at the P&R. I've got a luxury Caterham; it's got a heater

[GlenMH]

Good to see everyone this evening and I am pleased the oil burning starship was not too slow!

See you next month,

Glen

Good to meet you all.

I discovered on the drive home that light rain still hurts when going fast

On the plus side, I did find my Buff bandana that had blown off on the journey to Long Ashton

I did think of you as the occasional large drop snuck over the windscreen
