Newlands WLM Date Change?
Surrey Dave - 22/5/08 at 05:15 PM

Hello peeps,

I know I haven't been along for a while , (waiting for the enthusiasm to buy a tax disc and give my life savings to the local petrol merchant)

But was thinking , it could be an idea to change the date from the 1st Sunday so that it would not clash with the 'Goodwood meets'.

It would remove a tricky decision and give 2 meet options per month.

James - 22/5/08 at 05:26 PM

Although I'm generally opposed to change of any kind, and in fact don't want to go to Goodwood, it would be nice to see some of the WLM'ers who do go to it.

Would they be allowed 2 days away a month anyway though?

Cheers,
James

.......sounds like a good idea to me, it also clashes with Stoneleigh every year. If it was to become the third Sunday, this would give an even spread of weekend treats for those who want to do both

Maybe June could be a 'transitional' month, where we have a Newlands on both the first and third Sundays, and switch to the third thereafter? Suspect one or two 'other halfs' might have something to say on that one tho'.......

Anyway, one vote for the third Sunday from me

I was thinking the same re dates, i've sent a mail to goodwood asking if they will change the breakfast club dates

Fozzie - 22/5/08 at 10:50 PM

Ooooooo Deja vu................

I've been asking for this since the Goodwood brekkie club started..... now in its third season .......
........and got zilch response.......

So...another vote for WLM and the third weekend here......

So when will the next Newlands meet be then? I would love to come down and have a look at some cars.

Jasper - 24/5/08 at 09:53 AM

3rd weekend ok for me too....

Humbug - 24/5/08 at 04:11 PM

so, is it definitely the third Sunday now? I was looking forward to a meeting - I think the last one was 27 April

GeoffT - 24/5/08 at 07:25 PM

How about

.......we have a normal scheduled meet (1st June? weather permitting) and discuss it then

I'm with you if the weather's OK, as I'm having bacon and egg bap withdrawal symptoms

GeoffT - 25/5/08 at 05:46 PM

Ok Simon, I'll see you there, usual caveats re: the wet stuff of course. It's actually just the normal (currently) scheduled monthly meet, so I'm sure the usual 'regulars' will be along too.

theconrodkid - 27/5/08 at 11:49 AM

anyone going to the newlands meet got a 55mm hole saw i could borrow?
