..... around 1pm on Sunday 30th January at The Flying Fortress in Bury St Edmunds

Regulars know where it is but for any "newbies" who fancy a drive out and a beer, IP31 2QU for www.multimap.com

Just shout if you need directions though and I`ll try to give them and NOT get you lost!

Edited because I forgot a time - I must be rusty after the festive lay off Thanks Simpo!

Phil, if you are going, do you want to meet up near Kings Lynn?

VX220 is off the road awaiting two new alloys


You can always bring a boring car... we're not fussy


Simpo will (I assume!) be coming in his Griff for example!

At least three of us coming down from Kings Lynn - although I haven`t seen a weather forecast today yet!

Ian, Where are you meeting in K/Lynn, & at what time are you leaving for TFF.



Phil


Hi Phil, meeting in the Hardwick Tescos in Kings Lynn (just off flyover) for 12 o`clock set off. If you are not sure where that is, we can meet you enroute 5 mins later at The Sportsmans pub on the A10 where we met before ok

Hi all,

Nice to see old faces again and meet new!

Good turnout for a chilly January day, quite a few Griffs and loved the E-Type, wanted one just like it when I decided on my Griff 3 years ago, if only I could afford both!

Great run down from Kings Lynn and back with our little convoy of 4 TVRs (Did you realise we set the car alarms off as we passed the garage at Shouldham?) Probably frightened several old people and small children en-route too!

Neil


Yes, great drive and absolutely wonderful to do it with the roof off

As you say, a good turn out with old and new faces Did we miss Griffophenia or did he not make it across?

I really want to come to one of these, but I'd be a bit embarrassed driving a 1.5 Civic in a convoy of TVRs! I'll see if I can persuade my bro to take his Spit for a run out next time. That's unless someone wants to swing by Fakenham and pick me up...


I`ve turned up in a Corsa before now - and did I mention that "Toffer" turned up today in a Citroen C5? No? "Toffer" turned up in a Citroen C5 today!

Just come along FunkyNige, we are all Phers whatever we drive!

Bad luck Phil. Pity you didn`t make it as NeilMac wanted to "persuade" you to bid £20,000 for his ebay pic!

Apologise to Ian,Neil & Case for breaking our little convoy by shooting off half way home but had arranged to pick my son up from work at 4.


And I thought everyone was happy "burbling" along behind - and the Nissan Micra in front of me doing 50!!
