Nice one Steve - I've seen your motor at various events i.e Gorners Open Day etc - Would be nice to meet up with some PH'ers.

Fingers crossed for a dry one.

Basic directions:

M56 Junction 6

Head for Wilmslow - after aprox half mile, there is a left turn with a brown sign that reads P.A.P.S.

Turn in there and the pub is in 80 yards.

Oh yes! Journey was Calais-Stuttgart-Mijas-Santander. Really good drive. Particularly the autobahns


Wow, thats bizzarre!

I had just delivered some furniture in the south of Spain for a mate.

I was in a hired truck. Got to Santander 3 hours before the Val de Loire set sail. Parked up in lane 2 and got out to walk into Santander for some ciggies.

I saw a lovely black Tuscan (in lane 7?). I was going to come over and have a chat to see if you were a 'Pistonheader' but thought you'd think I was off my head if you did'nt know what I was talking about!

I clocked your reg in Santander and when I looked at your profile on here, I thought - that looks like..........

Wish I'd gone over to you for a chat now!

That's a shame but I'll see you on the 16th. (also my birthday). Did you talk to the Scooby boys on the boat?


No but saw them getting on the boat. To be honest I was just glad to get in the bar and have a load of beer. Slept from 1am through to about 2pm the following day.

Good trip if a little rocky on the way out of Spain!

Whats wrong with McDonalds?

Look, we'll scrap the McD's idea - ok!

Neil has come up with a good suggestion (above).

There is also an easytrack track day on at Oulton Park on the 16th. Could go there for a mooch? Only 25/30 minutes from airport.

?

I can see the point in going to McD's - I'd like to see the faces when we join the queue behind the Blot-on (sorry bolt-on) boys/girls in the drive-thru.


Precisely my original thought. I suppose we can have a majority vote on the day.

This will be great if we get a good turnout!

Calm down Mr Reeves.

Its only general chit chat.

It's not intended to be a photo shoot otherwise I'd have put that in the opening thread.

It should be a good day out, wherever we end up.

Unfortunately nobody can guarantee 100% satisfaction for anyone who attends.

If there is something or somewhere in particular that you would like to do/go, please feel free to put forward your own suggestion?

Note: Oulton Park track day is Saturday and not Sunday so that destination is now not an option. Unless you have a fetish for staring at an empty race track!

Go for 1130 , the idiot who requested the change (ME!) got the rugby kick off time wrong , so its not an issue . SORRY ALL !




Just checked the times for the rugby Neil. Agree that 11.30 should be good for you after all.

So - 11.30am for 11.45am departure

Edited to say weather looks very favourable.
