Just found out about this meet, as I am new to the club. Might be a bit late for me to get down this weekend, do you have any future events or meets planned?

If so, is there anywhere I can get hold of future dates to plan ahead?

Thanks
You could just pop in for a visit, meet peeps. Some one said plenty of parking outside.

You'll find plenty of info on the forum.

Got back an hour or so ago from visiting the site, too many people to catch up with, great to see everyone, fantastic weather so far.

A few piccies (camera phone playing up, so didn't get many :roll: )

It's a Mazda honest :^o - but who is the driver? :wink:

Freewheeler even brought a birdbath :wink: :lol:

Would just like to how nice it was meeting up with old and new faces today. :D Had a lovely day. Had a great pub lunch by the river, with Franco, little bit breezy but lovely all the same.

A big thank you to John and Andrew for sorting out my Kyham pole problem, will now be selling or swapping for something smaller, that i can manage on my own.

Got home at silly oclock this morning from visiting again, drove home though a rain storm, hope everyone didn't get too wet [-o< At least it was 1-2am, so hopefully dried out by today. Great to see everyone, never enough time to catch up properly, too many people, not enough time.
Sorry again to Maxheadroom for not ignoring you initially :oops: just thought you were one of Jaylee's roadies :wink: :lol:
Kept forgetting to take any piccies & then cameraphone was playing up, so didn't even bother trying :roll: Janner Vanner should have loads to post & I'm pretty sure someone was wandering around videoing.
