SE London / NW Kent - 1st Anniversary Meet
Discussion
This November will see the first anniversary of our highly successsful, almost monthly meets.
Originally arranged at The Grasshopper Inn, Westerham, the venue was changed to The Woodman, Ide Hill by popular demand. The first meeting saw in excess of 40 cars attending and I believe we've achieved at least that number at every subsequent meet - even double that at the height of summer!
Regular marques in attendance include TVR, Cobra, Lotus, Ultima and Caterham, together with occasional oddball appearances from the likes of Porsche and Ferrari - not to mention a lonely Jag when it's not soaking up more cash at the specialist
So, who thinks it would be a good idea to make a 'big deal' for the first anniversary?
Suggestions could be...
A whole day meet.
A meet with a drive.
A meet at The Grasshopper with a drive to The Woodman.
etc etc...
So what do you all think, and when in November would you like it to be?
Cheers,
Iain

The Woodman sounds good.

I'm up4it, bring the 996TT along. Either the second or forth weekend or any evening would be good for me.

Iain why not make it the fourth Sunday, then that other mad lot in their cobras might just be persuaded to rumble up from the Grasshopper, or we all meet at the Grasshopper and mass cruise, convoy or outright Blat to the Woodman ????
Sounds like a plan.
How does that work for others?
idea mate. Keep me posted and I'll try and drag along some of the Kent Lotus posse.
Sorry for the delay guys.
Nick has suggested SUNDAY 4th DECEMBER as the TVR peeps are fully booked throughtout November.
Obviously we want to get the biggest turnout possible, so I want to check with people here incase it clashes with something which will stop you all from coming.
So - a quick heads up, who's in and who's out?
PS: I think the best format will be to meet up around 12:30pm at the Grasshopper first to enjoy a shandy and take advantage of the large carpark to get some group photos. Perhaps we could organise the parking into marques (It usually happens anyway).
Edited to correct date - rather important!
Then, around 2pm take a convoy up to The Woodman, where Nick will join us (and maybe buy a round). Some more photos then whilst waiting for food.
Any comments?
PPS: S Works - any chance of spreading the word to the Lotus boys?
