Is there anywhere on PistonHeads with infor about this event? or could someone recap so I can avoid going through the painful process of reading all of the post in this thread.
Blackmonday, it's an informal meet, at Chatsworth House, Derbyshire, on Sunday, 9th. June, starting at 12:30. It will be a static meet i.e. no racing about, and there's people coming up from all over, including plenty from Surrey/London etc. (even PetrolTed himself!). Bring some wine, beer, portable barbie, food etc. and have a ball! It might be worth getting a group of owners together for a convoy up the M1. So far, roughly 60 PHers have signed up, and I imagine more will be coming who haven't put it in their PH diaries. Get your nice Tuscan "oop north!"
Incidentally, does anyone need accommodation the night before/ Here's a few suggestions, but there's loads of hotels in the area surrounding Chatsworth, including Buxton, Castleton, Baslow, Chesterfield and Matlock.

Looks OK. Menu very tempting.

I'll be coming from Liverpool. So.... if anyone in the area would like to travel to the PH meet en force let me know.
What is the address of the initial meeting place? What is the route we'll be taking? Will we be stopping en route? What is the destination? Details please
Posted this for you last night....

Obviously posted when I didn't know where you were from! I think there's one or two Manchester/Cheshire boys coming, so perhaps check out the list of participants, and e-mail them for a meet! See you there!

Who's coming from the London/Essex area.
Are we meeting for a convoy "oop-north" if so where and at what time.

I'm coming from High Wycombe. Haven't looked at a map
yet, but will probably be going up the M1 which is what it sounds like a lot of others will be doing. So if you want to meet at a service( can they really call it that) area or somewhere on the way that would be good. If the drive is anything like that back from Castle Comb it should be quite fun.

Woohoo! The 390 is back on the road and passed its MOT this morning:-
(MOT Tester): Hiya, how ya doin? Still got this old heap then?!
(ME): Aye, not too bad John. Wife and kids alright?
(MOT Tester): Yer... another one on the way. Anything wrong with the car?
(ME): Nope, just had an engine rebuild and a pair of track rod ends.
(MOT Tester): OK then, come inside and I'll get your ticket. It's thirty quid now, you know....
:-D
So, if I go down to the girlfriends the night before, I can just nip up the M1 from J23...;-)
If you spot a silver Wedge spewing steam and pistons on the hard shoulder, kindly stop and give me a ciggy. I don't smoke, but I've been practising throwing things into a 2" pipe from 10 feet...;-)
