Title: Queen's Square Sunday morning meet 12th April
Post by: Moleman on 25, March, 2015, 09:23:54 PM
This is a really good chance to meet up with car enthusiasts from all over Bristol. it is held on the Sunday morning from about 9am at Queen Square, Bristol, City of Bristol BS1 4QS

We are now supporting the Avenue Driver's Club in their efforts to sustain this magnificent free public event and thanks to all who have signed up (for free)  If you haven't follow this link to do so.

http://www.avenuedriversclub.co.uk/joinus.html

I know we are always immaculately behaved but I am going to ask three things.  We wish to make a positive impact on the Square and for Bristol as a whole. 
(a) If you see some litter could you pick it up and put it in the bins (not ours but we will help)
(b) If somebody does make noise, very politely explain the situation to them so that the show is not banned as a result - that also applies to burning rubber and the like
(c) Invite as many members of the public as possible to enjoy this benefit for Bristol

So this is a great venue with a good atmosphere so who is up for it?

This one is getting really popular now so it is best to get there early if you can.  :)

I'm sorry to say I can't do this one this time.  :( ::) :)

Pretty likely I'll be there. Its becoming a bit of a habit. I think it will need to be an earlier start than previous ones based on how full it was last time!

It's a shame I can't go as it will be nice to see your car again mate. I hope you may be able to do some of our other events in the year.  :)

Yes, I'll be going so long as the weather is OK. 

Of course, if the weather is OK, I'll need to be there 8:30am to get a parking space!  ;D

I should be able to make it, guess i will need to get up earlier this time, nothing like an early start in the Cobra on a Sunday morning to wake the neighbours. Cheers Tony

I have got round the neighbour problem, I always let them know that I'm going to have an early start Sunday morning by running the engine up Saturday night around 11ish to make sure everything's alright, finds this works a treat  - at least I have been considerate and warned them  8)      give it a try, let me know if this helps

Sadly my car is dead, but hopefully might be ready by Sunday.
Managed to mend the ign system, but needed a new front oil cover. Managed to find one in Ireland, so if postman pat plays his part, it should be here by 10.30 am tomorrow.

Got Dusty down to the Square for the first time today. Temp gauge still says hot but can still hold pipes so think new gauge is needed.

Got down there before Tony today I was that early. Great turn out of club cars as well today.

Yeah, fair play to you both for getting down to the Square this morning. You picked a good sunny morning for your first time

Sorry to hear that - it was so busy it was hard to find a slot at 08:30.

Good luck with the re-wiring.

Regards

I think we may end up camping the night before at this rate if we want a parking space.  :D
