Great day at the mid essex, last sunday, a good collection of wedges,
So next one! who would be intrested in a meet on saturday 29 or sunday 30 may? at the wannabe in-laws pub? The Cock Pub, Stocking Pelham, nice little place with car park, food and beer .not far off the A120 near Bishops Stortford, Herts.(J8 M11) I will find a good place to meet at midday then we can go for drive and convey in.
arrive about 1pm eat,drink and talk cars. Because the evening trade is mainly restaurant, pub closes 3 to 5pm to prep the food. if a nice day we can stay outside in the garden after 3 and drink, talk more cars.
I have to work the next weekend and the one after that is le Mans.

Unfortunately I will either be sunning myself or rusting away in France with the wife, four kids and the galaxy.

On the plus side there's always the food and the luverly vino

Take plenty of pics!

Touch and go whether I can attend - bit far for me - but I'll give it some thought.

Also some legal shenanigans that were due to be done by last week are now adjourned so I may need to keep myself available over the weekend pending further developments.

Ok, lets have a small gathering this Sunday,(30/05/04) and go for a . I been thinking hard for the best place to meet, not very exiting but came up with a layby on the A120 Bishops Stortford, coming from J8 M11 stay on the A120 bypass towards Hertford and layby is between 2 and 3 roundabouts, coming A120 from Hertford its between the 1 and 2 roundabout. meet up at 1230 for a 1245 off, I will arrive a bit earlier and listen out for BBW's then and we can take a 10 min in the sticks befor and food at the wannabe in-laws pub. I may have a BBQ at mine after for those that want to stay into the early evening or dont live to far away.

Where is Bishops Stortford? And where, for that matter, is Leighton Buzzard? I thought they were extinct in the UK!

Can't make it, I'm afraid. I'm taking (weather permitting and the forecast isn't too good) the Wedge up to Marlow for lunch with my Best Man (of 30 years ago) and his new (!), young (!) wife - Streaky
