Afternoon all! Me and Dave have been discussing the possibility of a jolly gathering of TVRs for a while now, and have been conducting some thorough research (we went to a pub, had a drink and agreed s'alright).

So who's up for it? We've loosely arranged that the date will be the 2nd of July and the location will be The Plough Inn at Alvescot which is nestled somewhere between Faringdon, Witney and Burford- it's not set in stone though so if anyone has any alternative dates or places then feel free to suggest them, let's get a few cars together! smile

We'll see how the dates work for others and if it looks like another day works better we can always reschedule - the pub won't be going anywhere! biggrin

I could do any of the next few weekends at the moment (Sat or Sunday), so 1st/2nd, 8th/9th, 15th/16th if that works for anyone else?

A Saturday is no problem for me if it works better than a Sunday.

Would any of those dates work for you guys (Frank & Alun)?

Awesome! thumbup

We could look at doing either the 8th, 9th, 15th, or 16th then- see if any of those dates also works for Alun?

It's hard to say so just choose what suits you chaps and I'll see where I am nearer the day. Odd working hours!!

Looking like the 8th is the day if that's alright for everyone.

Nice one! Will be good to catch up again chap.

I think Mike said he's working nights on the Saturday & Sunday so I doubt he'll want it to be too early either! hehe

The more the merrier!

I was thinking maybe lunchtime or just after, but happy to go with whatever works for everyone else- that means I might even have time to clean my car! idea

Looks like being a good turnout biggrin

I'm easy on times, but the later we meet up the less I'll resemble a walking zombie sleep

Can't take the car out without giving it a clean first! I'm genuinely concerned for you Dave, that you're becoming a member of the polishing brigade loser

Quite the opposite in fact! - This will be only the 4th time I've cleaned it in the 12 months I've owned it- I 'plan' to do it quite often but I usually decide that if the weather's good enough to clean it, the weather is good enough to be out driving it instead... driving

Just wondering whoever is in charge or if it fits in with everyone's schedule if the 8th is to be confirmed.
Only asking because there is a Hill climb event at Chateau Impney that I will go to if not. Could do with with knowing sooner rather than later so they have idea of numbers.

Cheers Jas
