Was having a chat today with one of the Caterham guys,and as the weather is looking good :cool: for Monday, we decided on an impromotu run out.
The idea is to meet up as usual at Old Barn Nurserys, A24 just south of Horsham, and I know it's the same old route, but it's just so good! :D :D
So it's A24, then A272 to The 7 Stars at Petersfield.

Anyone else fancy it?

Derek.

O.k. guys,
sorry about lack of meet times, the ole brain ain't what it used to be!
It's gonna get very busy at The 7 Stars so we should aim to get there not long after midday, so if we can meet up at around 10.45 for an 11 o'clock depsrture, we should get there before the hoards.
For those that don't know the route, I'll give out directions on the day.

Have some friends staying with us, will have to see if can persuade them to do this on Mon - sadly friend just got rid of his Boxter S, so they would be in a Volvo estate!

Hi Alex,
hope you can make it, even volvo estates are welcome.
There will be a very nice brand new boxter S coming on Monday, could make your mate regret his decision to sell!

Cheers

His Boxter S was also a brand new one - said it was back at the dealers with problems on a monthly basis! Also wanted to sell it before depreciated too much.

We're planning to go to the banger / stock car racing at Angmering, starts 12, £8 tickets, prob goes on until about 5 - they're also doing a 10 car jump, caravan demolition derby and loads of other races - should be fun!

So we may just pop up to say hi to you guys at Old Barn, or if you want to start a bit earlier, could do a bit of the run with you?

Why not come to Angmering?

Good morning Alex,
thanks for the offer of stocks and bangers etc, but I'll stick to to the 7 Stars idea.
I assume you've not put your name down for any of the races!
Hope to see you on Monday,if not have a good day.

Cheers

Derek
