Bamford Rose Open Afternoon 27th April

[mikey k]

I'm sure you have all spotted the Gaydon Factory Tour thread.
As a bit of a bonus Mike at Bamford Rose has offered to open their facilities up to us.
This was orginally for those going to Gaydon on 27th April in the morning.
But I don't see why others that aren't going to Gaydon cannot go to Bamford Rose
I'll get some detail from him later on what they want to do in the afternoon.

It could be with a lot of cars
Your pipe is on order (and not the pipe & slippers kind )

Do you think Gaydon will be ok with us leaving some cars in the car park so we can double up, so to speak.

I have no problems sitting on your wife's knee

And you will still be able to have the roof up

That conjures up a bizzare mental image

Ach, don't worry, she'll be fine.

As Georgeous intimates, in his jovial way, I am a midget as you well know

Don't worry. I would be far more concerned of Jockman having her sat on his knee

Depends how many of us there are, but yes. Their new building is under constrcution so their current premises is rather temporary in appearance and space is at a perium. I'm sure Mike and Mikey have a plan though or the invite would not have been made!

Parking sorted - Mike has an "arragnement" with the hotel just down the road.
He is also trying to get the infamous "Jessica" there and some cheffy type food sorted!

I think 'infamous' is the wrong word. That car is famous for the right reasons

[mikey k]

The depends on your perspective
I drove her when she was in FULL shouty mode

[pommehogster]

Yes I can confirm that "Jessica" and I will be there. Will look forward to meeting the faces to go with the names.

I was going to suggest parking at the bridge (pub) but I've been beaten too it.

[yeti]

Mmm, pub... Pub = pub lunch number 2, this could be a day to remember

I've been talking to Mike about some mods and he suggested going on the open afternoon on the 27th to see and hear more.

So I'll be there and hopefully meet many of you and put some faces to names.
