yes ok, my keys and I would be happy to do this one. Be a bit more careful this time though! :-[ :-[
Dixie and myself will be going again this year......always a good day out! ;) ;)
We'll be going on the Sunday no doubt.
That's Easter weekend. I should be ok for this.
It is one of those just turn up & park event's but I will see if we can get some spaces booked. ;)
I will go along to this. Not sure if it will be Sat or Sun tho..
Looks good to me - which day is preferred - or are we going to have a two-day binge in candyfloss?
I will decide closer to the date & see what the weather is doing first.
We will arrange some meeting points for anyone who wishes to get there in convoy so we can park together. :)
Gonna be a bit to busy getting ready for Stoneleigh for this one :'(

probably get to this one, not sure Sat /Sun
Stick me down, not sure what day(s) yet
Hi all, I'm still here !!! Put me down for this, which ever day the sun shines :P
I am always up for fish and chips at WSM, so count me in. Cheers Tony

Anyone else? :)
Can someone explain where the meet will be :D first time :o
Head towards the main beach near the pier.. Cant miss all the cars parked up on the grass area. Will be hard to park up as a group unless we all meet up at the same time. I'm still not sure if I will show on the Saturday or sunday.. Will check the weather nearer the time :D
That cool in not showing just popping down to have a look and hopefully meet some of you and get some ideas for my own car thanks cant wait :P ;D :o

Hi. I will be arranging a meeting point for anyone who would like to go up in convoy, Probably for the sunday morning at 9am at Brunswick Place BS1 6XH. which will be by the lockside cafe under the fly over. (if the weather looks to be crap on the sunday I may change it to the saturday if you guys rather do that).
Who is up for a convoy to weston then? ;D
Yep, Sat or Sun, may meet you in Backwell (Rising Sun poss)

I will be happy to stop at various meeting points to pick up more guys on our way along the A370. :)
The Rising Sun is good for me too ;)
Ok who is up for meeting on Sunday morning at 9am at Brunswick Place BS1 6XH. which will be by the lockside cafe under the fly over?
Then on to the Rising Sun pub in Backwell, Then a convoy to the Weston car show.
Meeting point one 9am Brunswick Place.
Moleman
Walnut
.......?
Meeting point two About 9.30am Rising Sun.
Peterw
Iancider
Paintman & Dixie, Would you like us to meet up with you guys before we go into weston?
Who else is up for a convoy down then? :)
We could meet at Churchill, if you guys go right at the lights we could meet you in the Churchill pub car park.
What do you think?
Mark
That sounds ok to me mate. :)
It seems a bit silly for the Bristol members to meet up on the WSM rd drive across town to the Bridgewater rd then drive back on to the WSM rd. So I will see you all down there.
I can be at the Rising Sun Backwell at 09.30 on Sunday.
Mike.
Dixie, Paintman
I am going to suggest an alternative meeting point for you guys a couple of miles further on.
If you are coming up the A368 from Blagdon/Burrington direction. When you get to Churchill turn right onto the A38 and take the first major left in half a mile, just before the petrol station onto the B3133 (Stock Lane) (bear left then immediate full left) and follow it all of the way (2 miles) to Congresbury and turn left onto the A370.
Head out of town towards WSM and about 300 yards past the Zebra crossing, turn into the car-park (on left) of the Sousta Meze pub restaurant. If you park nose up to he pavement you will get a good view of the convoy approaching and can just join on the end as we pass or maybe a kind person in the middle will flash you out. We would be passing there between 9:45 and 10:00. You will find it easily on Google Street if you navigate from the centre of Congresbury for half a mile. This way there is no back-tracking for the convoy.
Be prepared for a five minute queue at the Congresbury traffic lights - it is normal.
If you would like to PM me you mobile numbers if will text whoever will be your leader as soon as well leave Backwell and then we would be with you in 10-15 minutes from then.
Regards
Ian
Thanks for that Ian. 8)
That should be a pretty ok place to stop, The Sousta Meze pub restaurant has a car park just of the A370 road too. The post code is BS49 5EB for the restaurant if this is ok. What do you think guys? :)

Where in relation to the Churchill Inn is the restaurant?
M
It's in Congresbury. I think Ian meant to say if you guys go from churchill up stock lane on to the A370.
We are guessing you guys are coming from the A38.
If this is not Ok with you guys then the next place I can think off is meet you guys in one of the retail shops car park just off Herluin way just in Weston?
Don't worry about it. We'll find our own way down.
See you on the front.
Mark
I will like to go on Sunday as well but will meet up with Dixie and Paintman

PeterW suffered instant battery death. This is the second time I have seem this in a month - where the battery just fails instantly and short-circuits internally. Of all places to fail - could it have been worse? :o But teamwork sorted it within the hour 8) 8) 8)
All credit to Dave for lightning fast reactions - eventually! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
Was that video a challenge, to see how many different video transitions could be made in one vid?
Did anyone make it to todays event? :o
8)
I went again today just as many cars and people did have a bit of rain just after mid day
Fair play to you Tony ;D Was all I could do to get up garage today :-[
