Boks !

I'm stuck out here in Spain again and won't be back until next Thursday pm.

I'll keep my eye on the thread in-case it changes days.

ps Who's going to the Growl at the end of July?

Fear not if you can't make it Simon, I'm sure we'll have another one soon. In fact I'm all for having these 'mini-meets' on a more regular basis.... lets see how quickly I can exceed my insurance limited mileage!

I'm all for that Pete perhaps you want to sort some in the East and I'll do some in the West of the region?

I've always fancied an early morning Cornish run when the roads are quiet ending up on a clifftop or beach for a BBQ breakfast??

Pete,

Keep me posted - I'm always up for a run if I'm around.

We're pretty close anyway, it's only 15mins (ish) to Junction 27.

Hope you all have a great time.

Judging by the way the forecast is changing daily, for the worse, I would be inclined to go along with Garry and suggest we leave it open untill nearer the time.

If it turns out ok then we'll go with Wednesday, but if, as it would appear, the wet weather lingers on then it may be necessary to move it to Thursday (good for djburns and sgrimshaw).

Well review and have a headcount Tuesday maybe.

Not wishing to rub it in or anything .......

But it's been 39 degrees here today, and the forecast for the forseable future is sunny and fg hot!

God I wish I had my Tiv with me.

Thought about it last week but the ferry was quoted at over £800 return (Plymouth-Santander)!

If you do change to the Thursday, I'll be interested.

Be good to give her a run before she goes into Peninsula for a service and an exhaust firkle.

They tell me it's going to be LOUD !

Keep up the good work Pete!

Hello.... (hello...hello...hello..echo!)!

It's all very quiet here on the South West Forum. Where is everyone?

Well chaps, as is usual with these things, the forecast is still changing. I'm not around much tomorrow, so you guys can chat amongst yourselves and decide if you want to have a meet up Wednesday night or not. I'll check in during the evening and see what's happening.

Lets hope for it to be dry, I need to

I might have to miss this one as my father went back into hospital on Thursday night and I didn't get a chance to sort my manifold out, so I either miss it or go up with a chuffing manifold?

Sorry to hear that Corin. Best wishes.

Pete - I'm on for Tues, Weds or Thurs. Tues looks like the best bet weather wise but any day suits me.

I know we had been talking about Weds or Thurs but as only a few are going to be around how about tonight? Looking out of my office window at glorious sunshine, I'm getting a bit twitchy! Forecast is rain coming in over next few days.

Hey chaps. Managed to get onto a workstation....

Tonight (Tues) sounds good. Just looked at the forecast for tomorrow and it sounds awful. Lets get out there while the sun is still shining. I know everyone will not be able to make it, but will do another sometime soon.

Wyatt, Garry, shall we still say 19:30 at the Waterloo Cross pub?
