Hi Peeps...As you may or may not know i have the 3-5th of July 2015 pencilled in for next year...It has been brought to my attention that the Griffgrowl couldn't secure a date so a combined event may be a possibility..Above all i think it could be a right laugh..At the moment I'm talking with a rep from the Ricoh Arena and will be discussing the options shortly..I will know before next month..We could even combine it at the arena although I'm happy to go with EC again..Can i have your thoughts please...Cheers...Ziga

PS: If we do have a combined event then there will be a "Tug of war" challenge and maybe a few more fun things to see who is No.1...Of course its all in the best possible taste....

I don't object joining with the Griffs, in fact it should be quite a laff, although I do note that it's quite ironic that they are coming cap in hand to us this year, after last year's shenanigans....

Combining it with the griff boys for me is a winner, I love my wedge but a griff is my dream tvr so I would be able to drool over them all weekend ask loads of questions and have a right laugh. Right I will get my coat sorry for the blasphemy.

Likewise love a Griff, but not as much as a Wedge, so more than happy for a combined event. Personally I liked EC as a venue, great location, good car park, very helpful staff and reasonable price. Hopefully the wife will be coming next year so the pool, sauna etc will tempt her - at least if she gets bored they will keep her occupied.

Strangely enough, I have a soft spot for a well fettled Wedge hehe

Really hope the Growl takes place in some form or other but it seems like its in doubt for this year.

Not fussed if there's a formal joint event but I am hoping to get along to the BBWF in the Griff anyway (and just blagging it...)

Hope to see you all there

Thanks for the positive response...They are talking about not having it next year due to lack of places to hold it as EC can't give them anything until sept!..eek..And EC does tick all the boxes..So i think helping them out would be a good thing...There might be an issue with room availability but I'm going to speak to EC tomorrow and see what they can do.

I guess if all else fails then there is accommodation locally..Or theres sofa beds by the bar...Or even roomshare..But i must point out that i will only share with the opposite sex so wives and G-Friends are most welcome..smile

Unless they snore...Or fart...Or snore and fart....wobble

Sounds like mutual love fest for the Gredge/Wiff - in theory sharing should be OK just make sure you take your own pillow:

Its really rather simple;

Before/during/after the BBQ we'll have a 'who can drink the most' contest, after which, say 4ish, we'll stagger out for the tug-of war (by then technically half of the night is past anyway...)beer

However wins gets a room, anybody else...don't ! furious

I personally think that is a briljant idea, no ? biggrin

"Gredge" is pretty 50/50 and trips off the tongue.

"Gredge" is a mixture of a Wedge with a 5.0ltr HC Griff engine...That goes like a scolded cat...I know of one..And know it very well...In fact here we are together...


Actually the irony is in this pic from Wedge to Gredge...smile
