I find myself with several hours to kill on Saturday 12th April in the Ely/Cambridge area.

Anyone fancy getting together for a natter/beer/tyre kick? More importantly, I'm hoping you can suggest a good pub for the meet.

Alternatively, if anyone knows of a local-ish track day on the 12th....

Why not "extend" saturday into Sunday and come along to the Mid-Essex meet? Pretty good turn out usually...!

Jeremy: I might be around but I'm having a party that night and may need to prepare for it.

Podie: What is this mid essex meet you talk of?

So a couple of beers in a nice pub would be ideal, no?

Mid-Essex TVR meet... had about 50-odd TVR's last time... an Ultima, some Skylines, Marcos, Viper and a few other things IIRC.

Seems to be turning into a general sportscar meet these days! RO doesn't seem to mind other marques appearing, as long as they expect a bit of stick! Good crowd, decent grub... bit of a laugh... oh, and you get to meet Big M!

Jeremy: Exactly.

Podie: I'll try and make it to one then, don't think I'll be in a fit state that Sunday though!

I've already had the pleasure of meeting BigM.

Or do you mean I get to meat her!?

Phrases I'd like to say #452 to #453:

"I might bring the Aston"
"Shall we take the Aston, dear?"

Class.

Bonce -- it is one of lifes pleasures. That, and giving it some serious spanking where the open rear exhaust put a nice edge on the soundtrack.

Want a video of me doing just that? :-)

If I can suggest a good pub for a spot of grub? The Exhibition, in Godmanchester. Up near the Huntingdon end of the A14. Then, nearby, there's the good old A1198 down towards Royston if cars need to be soundly spanked. I probably won't join in on that, 'cos I'm in a Citroen XM these days, but hey.

jhoneyball, just checking the old "small world" thing... did we once have a discussion in Waterbeach about an early (one of first four off the line) Mondeo... with an SVE reg plate? (Would e-mail you offline, but you've no address in your profile.)

Right then, who's up for this?

Marshy's suggestion of The Exhibition in Godmanchester sounds a fine idea.

I suggest we meet 1-1:30pm.

All welcome - confirm on this thread or email me if you are coming along (just so I know if I'm going to be Nobby No-mates ).

Marshy: bring a few of those fine Stryngs CDs and I have one from you.
