Suffolk/Essex borders get-together?
David Jenkins - 3/7/06 at 08:19 AM

Folks,

Is it time for the South Suffolk / North Essex gang to get together once more, while the sun is still shining?

We could either meet at the Stratford St Mary pub again next Tuesday, or take up Paul G's suggestion and meet in Long Melford one Sunday morning.

Opinions? Alternative suggestions?

David

(anyone from nearby counties also welcome... that's for the benefit of Rusty Nuts! )

Please please please, can we make it after the 11th of this month.
I'm away tomorrow for a week back on the 11th and realy want to get to the next meet having missed the bacon butty run due to ill health.


David Jenkins - 3/7/06 at 08:33 AM

Quick chaps, let's get together while he's not looking!!!

Only joking - we should aim for 'maximum availability' when we arrange a venue...

David


BKLOCO - 3/7/06 at 08:42 AM

OK thats fair enough I'll wait and see what you come up with but whatever it is if it's after the 11th I'll be there.

If your looking for suggestions I would rather a bit of a convoy run out as well as a meet in a pub or whatever.
How about a run to one of our "lovely" coastal towns/villages.
How about Southwold?
Nice pub on a village green somewhere perhaps


BKLOCO - 3/7/06 at 09:38 PM

Back to the top!!!


David Jenkins - 4/7/06 at 11:28 AM

Well, that's 2 of us showing interest!


Ferg - 4/7/06 at 06:38 PM

If I'm not doing anything, David, I'll be there.


Stuart Ainslie - 4/7/06 at 07:58 PM

Don't know if any of you guys are interested but there is a classic / hot rod / allsorts car show in Little Clacton on July 23rd.

Generally a good turn out of cars with an autojuimble, beer tent, kids inflatables etc.

Can give you the organisers name for a freebie entry if you are interested...


blockhead_rich - 4/7/06 at 11:10 PM

I'm up for either but I'd like to turn up in my car but SVA is on Friday (so long as I get no more bad luck and as long as the rolling road goes OK tomorrow and I get my front cycle wings fitted and I get my headlights aligned and I get my brake bias bar pinned and it's all got to happen on Thursday night)!

Oh and I don't have the right cycle wings yet - another set of rears turned up today (custom moulding's fault not the new Luego Co which have been fab'

Any one want to help me out on Thusday evening or fancy following me to Chelmsford early Friday morning ( just in case I break down which considering the S***T luck I've had recently will definatley happen (on the way there too).

Depending when, I would like to come along. Let me know. Jason


David Jenkins - 10/7/06 at 08:23 AM

BTTT

In the absence of anything else, how about meeting up in the usual pub in Stratford St Mary on the evening of Tuesday 18th July?

(Can't remember the name of "the usual pub" - I'm sure someone will remind me! )

David


BKLOCO - 12/7/06 at 08:28 AM

Yep! I'm there David.
Correct shift as well for once


Ferg - 13/7/06 at 03:50 PM

I'll pop over, David. If I can remember where I left the car......


David Jenkins - 13/7/06 at 04:24 PM

OK, in the absence of any other solution, why don't we meet at The Black Horse, Stratford St Mary at 7:30-ish next Tuesday 18th July.

On-line map thingy

If the link doesn't work, dies, or otherwise fails to communicate some information, try looking up "CO7 6JS" in your favourite on-line map.

cheers,
David


Ferg - 14/7/06 at 03:27 PM

I hope there are more than the first time David, 'cos I don't think Tom can come with me!!!

Cheers
Jon


David Jenkins - 18/7/06 at 07:19 AM

That's a shame Jon - having driven to your place in the other direction I can assure you that it's a great route for a seven-style car!

Maybe see you tonight.

cheers,
David

David Jenkins - 18/7/06 at 03:30 PM

David Jenkins - 18/7/06 at 09:11 PM

Likewise!!


907 - 18/7/06 at 11:01 PM

Great night.

The best bit for me though was the ride there and back.
The first time I've been to a meet in a seven. Thanks Gerry.

Sorry I missed it. Had every intention of coming. Stuff got in the way!
Next time though for sure. DVLA are coming today, so hopefully I'll be on the road by the end of the week! See you all soon.
Cheers
Jon


BKLOCO - 19/7/06 at 08:50 AM

Every time you change the battery in the camera it loses the date/time data
But then again what can you expect for £8.50
