Grahame the Blue Boar or Palace theatre don't work



Del' - are you trying to say you'll meet me outside the Palace Theatre? - If so, ideal... just say the time?

Hi Alan!

Pauline, a friend would like to visit in his Caterham - what's the score with that please?

I'm coming again this month. Car has been brilliant since i've had it. 2200 miles now, and getting more enjoyable as each goes by. Not had any problems (he says, touching as much wood as he can find!) except for a few minor things, such as a squeaky back window! which should get sorted on thursday@Castle. I will be honest though, the main reason i'm coming is too eat! looked lovely last month, but I wasn't brave enough to eat a roast without the other half being present, so I'm dragging her along this time.

Food is pretty good... and certainly saves cooking when you get home

Look forward to seeing you all!

...I'm being so slow to catch up again, as I see from your comment Ed, that I'm having a convoy from Jnct 26 again....I didn't know about it but oh well, OK if you insist.....

Meeting at the Marriott off Jnct 26 of the M25 at 10:00am. Anyone welcome to come along or mail me for directions, if you need to.

Big T, you're at the front as you should know the way by now then we all get to listen to you

Podie, what's your prediction on numbers this month?

we've just come back from Devon......weekend away with Big M and TdF and yes...I'm still sane.....but only just!!!!!!
...//P//


so where was my invite then???
Alf - sorry mate - I did ask around but wasn't having much joy convincing anyone else that a weekend surfing in Devon, staying at a holiday camp was a good idea - only Pauline and TdF were stupid enough to let me just book it And that was without mentioning that it was a special 'theme' weekend - Christmas comes early. Warning never mix TdF and brussel sprouts - not nice.

Podie, if we have 40 there'll still be poeple coming out of the White Hart when you get to the Forrester's... unless you're still worried about melting people in which case vice-versa.

I guess I'll be there too. See you at J26, Griffy, Big T et al.

Yellow Peril said in her TVRCC e-mail said:

I would like to see all the TVRs going down the drive in models.

No particular order….just like cars together.

So…..please be patient with me on Sunday as I do the ‘job’s worth’ parking routine on you!!!!!!

Alf & Podie….if you could arrange your convoys in model order it would make life a lot easier!!!!!!!!


You having a larf?!?

Jeez... this could make it more entertaining than usual!!!

Podie, I'm afraid I'll be crying off this one......I'm on England supporting duty as they start their campaign to win the rugby World Cup...it's a close call though as to which is the bigger obsession the Griff or the rugby!!

I hope you have a great afternoon at the Forresters...hope to be back in December.

PS Do you have a double or was it you in Recess on Saturday morning at 10.45am having a coffee?

mmm this is getting mad!

OK it looks as though I'm now arranging a convoy from Southend to A130 by-pass, a bigger convoy from A130-by pass to White Hart and with Podie's help an even BIGGER convoy from White Hart to the Forresters

Confirmed from Southend to the A130 by-pass;

1) Me (obviously....) Tuscan S
2) Seasider (Griff)
3) Drum4it (Chim)
4) Tdf (Chim 1)
5) Tdf (Julia) (Chim 2)

....so is this convoy lark growing or what

Now who is joining me at the A130-by pass from 10.30??? We will leave at 10.45 sharp for White Hart...and guess we will have a few soft drinkies there before leaving with the masses from the White Hart for Forresters at 12 (in model order - taken note Mrs P!)

Alan.
