Next weekend??

[WildfireS3]

Anybody up to anything S wise? I'm down South for Friday to Sunday evening, wouldn't mind meeting up with an S owner or 2 for a natter.

[ukbob]

Yep, I should be up for something, praps we could have a meet with whoever wants to some, ideally as close to essex/kent/sussex/surrey as possible? Hopefully closer to sussex Be good to meet you mate, and whoever else can make it Sunday would be best for me.

Off to Venice with Mrs S.

and so no for me.

[KentishS2]

Always on a blooming weekend when I've loads on....
Got to do a few jobs on the VW prior to MOT plus a short service.

[WildfireS3]

Ok, I'll have to see whether I can get a car, as I'll be public transport powered. The best day for me is Sunday, as I've probably got a meeting on Friday and am building a computer at some point.

Guys

There is the Mid Essex meet, plus a visit to Levens open day for the purchase of Shiny bits at a discount, along with Tea and Bacon rolls, all after a trundle through the Dartford Tunnel.

[WildfireS3]

Cool, what day/time is Mid Essex? I building a PC on Friday, have a meeting in Victoria on Saturday. Sunday I'm free all day until around 5pm. I have to catch a train at 7pm. The price of the petrol/extra miles on the S was just too much and I have opted for public transport !!!!

The other cars have no MOT, tax or insurance.

But this weekend is the "Next" weekend, at least until it's been and gone!

[WildfireS3]

No, no. The next weekend is the one after the one coming, especially when posted towards the end of the week.

I have this discussion with so many people.

Doesn't that tell you something

Actually I do agree with you Chris, this weekend is "this" weekend and "next" weekend is the following weekend.

But then I'm always debating the same thing with people, do you think we could be all arse about face?

Is that Next Saturday?

Yes, Saturday the 20th. Next Saturday, not this Saturday. See, this means this one coming, next is the one after.
