Been thinking, ok dont be scared

We have had a S club Heaven a while back and thought it would also be a great idea if we could get a Load of those Future classic Brutes together .

Wouldn't it be great to see so many Griffiths together in one place, imagine the noise too

I think if we do get something going then somewhere as central UK as possible would be good for everyone.

Whats your thoughts peeps.

Great idea!
When & where?



How about somewhere along the A606 between the A1 and Nottingham? Melton/Oakham road. Nice roads, lakes etc.


Dont know the area but Nottingham is kinda central, or even towards Warwick/Leamington way or Birmingham.

Think the more Central we get it the better the Turn out.

How about a Sunday Late October( 19 or 26), gives us a few weeks to get some interest and Find a good place.

Sorry guys, havent been about for a couple of days so havent inputted much into this.
The date is ok if not a little short notice,
Wixer if you can Re-con the Pub see what its like and if they are happy with a load of us turning up and wether the Carpark is big enough.
The Name of pub is very apt

Well - I've signed up and if, a) we can get enough Griffs there (still investigating possible new colour schemes for mine and need ideas) and b) I can find a new insurance Co so that I don't run out of miles before BTandP... then I'll make the trip down
