Good spot Mikey. Yes the people at Hockley Heath are a pleasure to deal with.

Mikey, yes Ian must have been looking after me. The car only has 160 miles on it so far and I am still treating it gently, especially in this weather. First impressions are very good.

Mikey K

Can you post details please of the Hotel, I have no idea where the metropole is ?

I am assuming Friday visit to Morgan followed by dinner at this hotel and then run out Saturday followed by lunch somewhere ?
will it be safe to assume back home Saturday night ?
Also I see date has changed from end of April ?

Cheers .... looking forward to it

Thanks, ok so booked hotel for the Friday night with option on Saturday.

where do you plan to be for lunch on Friday ? as 10.30 at Morgan probably means silly o clock start for us in the garden of England so may think to meet either at end of your tour (although I would like to see) or at the lunch stop if there is one.

Bump to add Cockers and remind you all to book the hotel and email me your contact details.
I also need to know if any one else is bringing a +1 so I can sort the lunch venues.
