Goodwood Breakfast Club 02/08/2015

[m4tti]

Chaps a few of us (weather permitting) are planning to meet up for a drive down to Goodwood this Sunday. Plan is to meet at clacketts at present but could meet at peas pottage services, then go across the South Downs way.

If interested post up, currently have 3 possibly 4 of us meeting up. Tried to do this last year but the usual torrential rain intervened. Hopefully it'll stay dry this year.

Hi miles. Good to hear from you. Will post the finer details up Friday/Saturday with regard to timings.

Hi miles,
Totally agree hence I put it on the Tuscan forum, then received a warning for cross posting! So it was deleted.

Not very helpful.

[m4tti]

Weather forecast now in the reliable time frame and it's looking cracking.

[m4tti]

Aiming to get to peas pottage services at 8, to arrive at Goodwood for 9 ish..

Good stuff. Looking forward to it.

Weathers looking even better now!

No problem Garry was good to see everyone. Always good to put some faces to names. It's a nice route down there through the South Downs way, and the weather was spot on.

Next breakfast club is October due to the revival. Let's hope the weathers just as good.

Or if anyone's interested we can set up a September run out down to somewhere like Dungeness (the dungeness-berg-ring)

Fingers crossed graham the weather gods will provide more of the same.

It's a cracking route to Goodwood much better than sitting on the m23 and a27!

Agree with above, thanks for organising Matt, good route down there and great to put names to faces. Look forward to catching up with you all again.

On a completly non related car matter and this will only mean something to Andy (mr 2sc), we have reserved a Greyhound. We found one at a Rescue that afternoon

No problem Miles, was good to meet up.

I'm thinking, as the breakfast club skips a month in September, of working a run out to the coast while the weathers still favourable. I know Rye/dungeness area was mentioned, just need to work out a destination which isn't to excessive for everyone to get too, but still has some interesting roads. I think these things work well as early morning jaunts out, less traffic and you still have some of the day left when you return.

Good luck with the greyhound, I've got a bit of dog collection myself, and rescue dogs are always the most grateful!

Good stuff miles. We've got four at the moment but really want another female bulldog, as we lost our female in March... The only thing making me think hard is the robbing insurance companies, our male bull dogs insurance went up to 58 quid a month this month and he's just turned 8, so it's tricky to move.
