Been playing in the garage this morning, and came up with this as a frame for the baner to take  to any shows we attend as a club.

['The Gaffer']

Vey smart Bri, I like it lots

[Hairy Santa]

Superb job there bri,

you must be brill at putting tents up

[David H]

Is that copper piping?

[Bulldog Bri]

  Yep. had some left over from when I did the central heating 
                                    With two 90's and a Tee piece

Wondered if you'd spot it 

[Bulldog Bri]

Anyone taking their better halfs to the show, I have a freind thats looking to join me for the day down there but she is worried that it's going to be a men only thing

Please Pete, not again...

[YellaBelly]

Suprised you've got room in the GT for a handbag with all those radiators Pete!

BTW Bri, if I am going (not sure yet) I will probably convince my better half to come too (failing that, I'll ask the Wife! )

JB

[Richard]

Sorry if I missed it, but is there a plan as to where and when we're meeting

['The Gaffer']

Good point. I hope Bri will come in with a meet / route cos hes good at that

[Bulldog Bri]

Workin on it guys.

I'm thinking One main meeting place and 1 or 2 stops to pick up on the way.

Or one route for the trailer boys and another for the blaters

your not the first to say that 

[Mark G]

Do you think we might need a fuel stop?  I haven't tested the range on my car yet?

['The Gaffer']

Do you think we might need a fuel stop?  I haven't tested the range on my car yet?

Agreed, I'm not sure about mine either. Will deffo have a spare can with me.

[Bulldog Bri]

As I'll be bringing the tin top and traliering my car down, if anyone wants me to carry spare fuel cans or anything else let me know.

[Bulldog Bri]

I've delayed the stripping of the Bulldog until after the Exeter show, as I need back up for work and the tintop has 2 weekends of towing (that I've never done before) with it.

So you will be driving it down weather permitting?

[Bulldog Bri]

No! still planning to take the 7 down via trailer, the Bulldog could be back-up just in case of the untoward plus it's not taxed at the mo'

['The Gaffer']

Do we have a final meet plan Bri?

[Bulldog Bri]

Here's what I'm thinking as a way for us all to meet up and run down.
Weather permitting
Saturday 21st November
2 meeting places. first will be the Portishead junction of the M5, the second is the Weston S Mare junction.

Portishead

Weston


For those meeting at the first place please aim to be there BY 8:30am
For those meeting at the Second place, please be there by 8:50am

As the first group travel down, when we are a mile away from the Weston junction (21) I will give one of you who, should be there, (someone volunteer) a call and you can join in for the run down. 

Aiming to get to Exeter by about 10 - 10:15.
If those who aren't towing want to get down quicker to nab an area, once we've all met up, then that will be the time to get going. 

[lightauto]

I will be there at The weston Junction. Call me  at the time.

[aliwizard]

hi all, anyone planning to camp for the weekend ,as i have a little stand in the main hall and will be helped out by grease monkey, will be good to have a beer ect, but i think its going to be bloody cold., cheers nick.look out for ND RACING COMPONENTS.

[Hairy Santa]

I think the plan for most will be a one day trip on the Saturday. Now, if you had a heated Winnebago motor home with a spare bed, then line em up on the bar mate

You must let me supply a link to you from the site Nick. You would be surprised at the traffic that comes through here. Will have a chat with you about my car on your stand. Phil.

If the suggested layby is full then there is another layby on the other side of the road a few hundred yards further back.

[aliwizard]

ok phil look forward to seeing you and the other members

Anybody else coming along?

[Bulldog Bri]

A trailer has been dropped off for me to use tomorrow and I've found an old ground sheet for my tent that I can cover the car with. So I'me still gonna make an effort to go down and fly the flag for the club. I know the weather is looking pretty s..t for the day but I'm holding out for a few clear spots. 

If you've decided to opt out of the run down or tin topping could you let me know via the names list (or a PM)

Cheers

[Hairy Santa]

I spoke to phil last night and he mentions that there possibly could be a run down on Sunday to Exeter by a few member's due to weather and other commitments

Does anyone know any thing regards this

I'm asking as I have been working towards taking my car down, have cut the holes in rear screen to allow for vents and now find I cant complete them in time ( still all going wrong)  all the paint has now reacted - not a happy bunny

['The Gaffer']

Sorry your work isnt going as planned Pete .

As for the show, the weather forecast looks pretty terrible for Saturday and Sunday too so I might as well say its gonna be a no from me as far as driving the Toniq down.

That said, I may well tin top it Saturday or more likely Sunday.

My suggestion sadly is to make it a free for all now unless those with wet weather gear still stick to the original plan.

Hope to catch up with a few of you at the show regardless.

[Bulldog Bri]

Judging by resonses and to the weather due for the weekend, I think that we call off the convoy run down to the show    and that we just make our own way down. So DON'T worry about any meeting points.

I hope to see some of you down there... 

[Hairy Santa]

Worked till 3am to get car servicable to run, hope to see you all down there
