I understand there is a meet and drive on Sunday 12th. Being a new boy, i haven't got round to joining the TVRCC yet and as such am not sure of the details of the meet (in Torquay i believe) and drive on Sunday - wouldn't miss it for the world though!

Anyone got any time/meeting points etc.

Rubbing my hands with excitment at the prospect and look forward to seeing all you South Westee's there.

Regards
Duncan

Damn, was in Torquay over Christmas as I grew up down there and parents still live there. Visit every couple of months, so would be good to know some other owners down there...

Thanks for the info Martin - very comprehensive!
Just had a bit of a nightmare in the last couple of hours - staff sickness and all that means i may struggle to get away from the office (yeah even on a Sunday..i know!)
Still, working on it like a trojan.

Prince Charming - give a shout when you're on your way down again. Although in PLymouth now I grew up in 'The Bay' and still spend most of my leisure time that way.

Cheers again
Duncan

This is just getting bigger and better.

Martin - you're right no-one works in Plymouth on a Sunday as they're all out 'leisuring'. When you're in that industry you get caught out every now and again! Especially when it's part your business and everyone else is down with the Posh Flu - they have no respect for a new TVR owner's needs.

I WILL get there...
