OK, following on from discussions here...

How about a meet at The Romper on Sunday 11th April at 1230, the idea being followed by ?

How to find The Romper
Take the M56 to Junction 6 (one stop from the Airport) and join the A537 road heading towards Wilmslow. Barely 100 yards on the left is the Romper Public House, accessed by a small lane with a small church on the right of the Romper.

Not hoping for a better offer mate, wife is ready to drop li'l li'l pugs any minute, so may have my hands full of sh1tty nappies instead !!

LOL! That's definitely not a better offer!

Since you are in the process of introducing a future PHer into the world a think a few should be purchased for you at the next meet you can attend - congrats mate.

Excellent - it's starting to look like we might get a good turnout.

Can you make it a Saturday - sailing season starts for me on Sunday, right through til December!

Might have to skip a week though, so put me down as a maybe. It's either this or cars in the park on ther 18th

P.S. Is it a coupe brains?

I think Saturday could be trickier for people - I doubt I will be able to make it for one. Unless most people asked for it to be moved to Saturday we'll probably have to leave it as a Sunday I'm afraid.

However, there is the 18th to look forward to!

No your not welcome... go away!



Seriously, everyone is welcome. If you don't have a TVR it will be a good opportunity to see some and maybe cadge a ride.

Is this "Romper-Sunday" open to non TVR drivers of the Porsche persuasion ?



Only so we can convert you to TVR ownership of course!

It's becoming increasingly unlikely that I'll be able to attend.

I must say, that's very inconsiderate, I was really looking forward to checking your car out.

Pugs bring the Mrs along - a ride in a rumbling V8 Chim will be just the thing for induction of labour! I'll be on hand if there's any action!

Great turn out everyone - nice to meet so many of you

For the information of others who couldn't make it we had several Chimaeras (myself, CrazyLegs, Jessica), a black Tuscan S, a crystal topaz Tuscan, a silver T350C (R9TUS), a graphite (ish!) Tamora, a Bentley Turbo Red Label, an Elise, Porsche 911 Turbo (nonegreen) and some classic Tivs.

Oh, and pwig's Rover!

The icing on the cake was a blat with some motorbikes on the way home.

Glad you enjoyed it. I couldn't make it (AGAIN) due to squeeky front suspension! Better safe than sorry.

Narrrrrr!!!!!!! joining Li'l pugs and Dave for a zip on M/way home was ...

Hey, leave us weedy 400 owners with our dreams OK?!

Cheers Lee for organization. was a good 'un......

No problem. I was amazed at the turnout, I expected 3 or 4 cars and 6-8 people! I guess next time we should meet somewhere and then drive to another place so we get to see each others cars in action? Maybe the Trafford Centre and then lunch at The Romper (which I will book next time based on the turnout this time! ).

Anyway, now I've broken the ice for myself by meeting a few PHers I suspect I will be attending a few more events, if only to meet more TVR-driving chicks!
