Whilst your welcome. To allow you to continue you lie picnic story. I assume you don't want to park with the rest of the cars on the meet
or do you want to suprise her on the day?

I was thinking along the lines of 'oh look at all those sports cars - lets park there'. Do you need to reserve me a space or something?

I foresee:

"ooh, look at all those cars, well, bless me Hello Chris, Rich, Bob, jo, Al, James, Tracey, Grae" SMACK

[chris_crossley]

I'll save you a space Ali_D, i'll be subtle. Unless you have a black eye and by then i figure she's guessed it.

It's reserve parking so it might look a bit obvious if i say hi Ali heres your parking space

News for "Cars in the park 18th April@Bolton Abbey"
---------------------------------------------------
There is no planned layout of cars. We have the space for 100 Cars and a bit of spare room for those Extra wide ones

Entrance fee
------------
Just a reminder, parking is £4. That's Bolton Abbeys standard parking fee. It's a good Venue with lots to see and that's per car/all day.

Photos
------
I will be taking lots, including close ups. I'll try to put them all on the web site.

Speeding
--------
Harrogate cops seem to be quite aggressive on speeding at the moment. So scanners on full :RAYDAR!

Current Itinerary
-----------------
11:00 I'll arrive and do anti-rain dance e.t.c
If your not coming in a convoy then try
to arrive before the big groups.
12:00 TVR Drive In (Coming from Harrogate) Est.
12:30 Ferrari Drive In (Coming from Leeds) Est.
They are stopping for an hour and will then
Head off on there Ferrari day out

You can leave at any time. Most seem to be planning a long stop with BBQ or picnic.

The numbers of cars is still growing but where on 90+ cars now.

See you there

Chris.

Meet us at the Shell station in pool in Wharfedale - it's only 10 mins down the road from Bradford. we'll be leaving there at 11am to head over to the Nelson pub on Skipton road.

See Yorkshire forum for details and map ref.

My wife's just binned me off for the day so I'm going to be all alone.

Alternatively there's a spare seat in a Cerbera if anyone else has run out of friends?!
