Hi Derek

Sorry I couldn't make it but I didn't get home till 5:30am and was out-for-the-count.

Went on this London Tunnel run thingy and guess who, out of 60 or 70 cars, was first to get his collar felt by plod? Although it has to be said that by the end of the night I was no longer in an exclusive club!

Looks like y'all had a great blatt. damn!

See ya one the next one.

Shame I missed this one, sounds like you had a really good run - bit of a Cerb-fest by the looks of it?

Derek, just an idea but how about combining the Southwick tunnel with the Lewes tunnel (adding in Petworth..of course!) and finishing up at a suitable establishment for breakkie/brunch?? Have I just started my first TVR run forum?


I was thinking to include both tunnels in the run for the meet on Sun 27 August:

Will put my name down for this on the other forum Alex but provisionally for now, seeing as its the Bank Holiday w/end and the kids will be by then!

There you go, see what happens when you boys go out to play without supervision.
Did you get a ticket or just a stiff talking to?

We had a really good run, with very very nice people, and no speeding tickets cos we're good boys and always stick to the speed limits

Hopefully see you on the Fountain run that Alex is organising.

Glad everybody enjoyed the morning, put your names down for the 27th August, looks like it's gonna be a good 'un.

Cheers

Derek

Mr Mop,

The mushrooms were lovely!!!

Derek - I'm on hols until the Saturday night, so I'm very doubtful due to jetlag!! (well, I will need to be on family duty, probably!).

On the other hand, could be an excuse for some action after the hols.

Cheers

Hi Gail.
No she hasn't as we figured the £500 for 45 minutes was a bit on the steep side
Have watched the video of what she took in the helicopter and looked quite good fun although i think it would be better, like i said on sunday, if your on a flight in an area where you know, because although she told me they went over Arundel castle another castle somewhere,Chichester cathedral etc etc if it's in unfamiliar surroundings it doesn't mean much (in my view) thereas if we went over London atleast i could say, there's the London eye, Tower bridge etc etc.
See you again soon.
Glyn.

Sorry to have missed the run, have just come up for air after a manic few weeks work. My Cooper S with Milltek would have been totally outgunned in the tunnel!!!! Looks like a great meet, would hope to make the next one, the MINIs coming off the road at the EOM, will have to see what's kicking around next time around ttfn Steve.
