Wotcha foggers...

Meet point will be at my workshop at 9am not at Nottcuts...

Should be a blinder, its drying out nicely so stuff should be well doable, plus we have new bits to carefully break in and master to.

Look forwards to seeing you all Sunday....and dont forget the supplies list...tis looking a bit bare at the mo.
Check out the index thread below where pics/reviews from all our past meets can be found!!!!
click here for the SE Events Index/links Thread...see all the reviews and whats coming up soon!

Looks like I'm in trouble with the Mrs's again...
She asked me what I'd most like to do to her body...
Apparently "Identify it" is not the correct answer!

Andy...can you bring your fronty rad you have with you, and if it looks like it'll fit I'll be buying it off you

Rob, I'll have at least 1 seat going empty if you want to jump in with me.

And does anyone know if hound dog is coming?

I won't be able to make this one I'm afraid, busiest time of the year at work and likely to be there. Although I'm going to be regretably letting my truck shortly, I'd still like to stay friends with you all & attend meets if I can!

Have fun in the snow/mud & safe journies! :thumbdown:

Apologies Greg but I'm not going to be able to get there much before 10a.m. - honest it's not my fault this time :shh:
Basically, I've now got to take my grand-daughter to the stables first, so won't be leaving Tun Wells until 9a.m.

Neal, I haven't got the white flag out on this one - all down to Chloe (my grand-daughter). She forget to leave the stable keys behind when I picked her up this afternoon, hence her having to be down there for 9a.m., which in turn buggered up the arrangements whereby her mates dad was going to take them down at 10a.m. :roll:
There does that sound convincing :thumbup:
