Southern 7's on Sunday the 7th
So where are Southern 7's / WLM / Morroco crew meeting next month then?
Is it too cold for newlands, will it be box hill indoors or is there another venue in the offing?!
Answers here, not on a postcard please.
Ned.

Box Hill sounds good for me

Box Hill sounds ok.
Change in venue a nice idea ; especially if
its inside.
Pictures of the Morocco rally would be interesting- perhaps a book could be in the offing; would put the Locosts on the map. Trueblue

At the risk of sounding naive . ,and being a soft , not very clever ,essex lad . Why is Box Hill 'inside' ? p.s. where IS Box Hill ? ROD

maybe just my machine, but bobs map showed the wrong location (slightly) if you zoom out one, you will see a roundabout on the dual carriageway,
it's right there, as bobs directions suggest (just not the map )

Its multimap ned,i think other map sites may well show the roundabout which is a more recent addition.
if you are coming from the south it is actually a very dangerous piece of road IMO
remember it not right on the roundabout/turning

to quote the film nottinghill:
'if anyone gets in our way, we have small nuclear devices'
and
'james bond never has to put up with this sort of shit.'
Man, I love those quotes. And yes, the junction si a bit nasty. sort of like a slip road across the approach to the roundabout..

Just an idea - may be too late to change:
The weather tomorrow is going to be as good as today - what do people think about moving this one back to Newlands? Box Hill will be PACKED with
bikers tomorrow.....
Just a thought

Ahhhhhh - I'm a week early aren't I
Just as well I posted this - cos I'd have gone up and been on my own!
Please ignore my previous post - just the ramblings of a man desperate to get away from a day of decorating ...........

Eeeh, I'll try to be there!
Hey!! I've just had this crazy idea of taking a flight to spend a couple of days in Guildford.
If I succeed booking flights and hotel, it would really make my day meeting you guys there this Sunday.
Anyone can offer a lift from / to Guildford for either 1 or 2 people?? (Me + girlfriend) Alternatively, is there a reasonable way for getting there
without a car?
Cheers,
Alex

I might well be able to offer you a lift alex, drop me a u2u for details... I only live round the corner from 'that roundabout' so picking
you up etc shouldn't be a prob.

I'm unsure, I mean your face is yellow and those eyes.. maybe not the best idea
Fantastic, thanks Ned, I'll send U2U hopefully tomorrow when I know where we'll be staying, it would be great if you collect us,
it's freezing early in the morning, I remember that well. Then when we return maybe we can have a look at your build?
Cheers,
Alex

yep, boxhill, 10am (ish)
Alex,
My build has not progressed much recently due to financial issues (and picking up a load of bits at exeter) besides, the car is stored about 25 miles
from guilford!
cheers,
Ned.

It's not happening
I haven't been able to find a cheap flight for Fri or Sat, only Sun the 7th which is too late for the meeting, so I've decided to wait for
a better occasion because I'm not traveling to the UK often at all and definitely I would like to see you guys one of these 1st Sundays of every
month.
Ned, by the time I can book a damned flight I bet your build will be SVAd
Hicost, many thanks for offering, it would be really nice to get in the passenger seat of your missile, I'll remember your offer when I finally
go there. As for your travel, at least I can see that I didn't get you in trouble, so I feel better. As you say, best thing is you tell me the
story when we meet again  (You don't owe me anything, you didn't cause any trouble!)
Cheers,
Alex

So, just to check- we are still meeting at Ryka's Cafe, Box Hill, 10am on Sunday.
I mean, not that I would think you might change the venue at the last minute to somewhere 40 miles away and not actually tell anyone or anything,
don't get me wrong!
Cheers,
James
