12th of Feb is good for me. Might I suggest some people may want to meet up a little earlier so there is an absolutely zero numpty quotient on the roads.

Sorry guys, can't make the 12th. I'll be unfit to drive due to having spent the previous evening with some of the thirstiest grape juice drinkers in Bristol. Wasn't in the diary as it was supposed to be happening in late january, not february.

No problem with Newbies joining in, wether it be Mendip blats or Bristol currys. Meet point will probably be sorted out nearer the time.

Pics were taken somewhere in the brecon beacons last year. Try to get over there as much as I can, some quality roads. Think I saw you today I was at the Kingsway traffic lights in the work van about 11:00 and you were going up Two Mile Hill rd towards Kingswood High street?.

Iam in for the 12th. I will probably be able to interest a few more if possible. Now just need a time & place. Always find on these kind of runs its best not to make the route public. Have heard of some very strange coincidences with speed traps,etc

Yea that was me, i was actually going to se if i could find out who owned the other Esprit on Lodge Causeway, I managed to park right in front of it & it belongs to a Dentist, he was in surgery though so we couldnt have a chat.

I know what you mean about Brecon, we get over there about once a month, the South Wales forum have a meet & a drive, definately worth doing. See you around

The bad news is I'll probably not make it..

The good news however, is that I should be ok to make anything else that happens after say the middle of March.. Just had an offer accepted on a house, so frantically trying to organise a move..

Edited to add: Don't suppose anyone knows anyone that wants to rent a flat in Sheffield?

Right, at last nights curry it was decided Sunday the 19th of Feb will be the day. An early drive, earlier the better if we want to shift on a bit, then i think if we agree a place to park up after then the guys (& gals?)that didnt make the drive can meet up then.

8ish for the drive, earlier?

Exactly!

What's happening? Are we doing 12th or 19th or both?

Eek! Didn't realise we're doing both!!!

I'm cool for both but am planned for next week - mind you the weather seems good at the mo - even if a little salty underfoot.

I can't do the 19th anymore, but can do the 12th if anyone else wants to? Weather currently says cloud, but not rain.
